Naboo Fighter Pilot is a Light Character (Republic) from Coruscant.
Card Text
Deploys -2 at Naboo. If just deployed aboard a N-1 starfighter, you may activate 1 Force. Adds 2 to the power of any starfighter he pilots (or 3 if piloting a N-1 starfighter). Forfeit + 1 when forfeited during a battle at a system.
Lore
One of many pilots who assisted at the Battle of Naboo. Determined to fight for the planet he's lived on all his life.
Strategy
By Joe Alread, Decipher Game Designer[1]
Your standard, non-unique pilot is not usually something a player would be very excited about. But when compared to other non-unique characters, the Naboo Fighter Pilot provides a big bang for the buck.
While his numbers aren't all that great, his strength comes in his game text. He deploys for free to Naboo. That ability alone could warrant using this pilot in a Naboo-themed deck, but it gets even better than that. If you deploy him aboard an N-1, you actually get to activate a Force! Deploy a card with ability to activate a Force; this character's deploy cost is essentially less than zero! His forfeit also goes up to four when he's aboard an N-1: not bad at all for a non-unique character.
Combo:
Spend a Force to deploy a Fighter, get the one Force back with the pilot, rinse and repeat as many times as necessary = LOTS of power for FREE.
