Admiral Ozzel is a Dark Character (Imperial) from Hoth.
Card Text
Adds 2 to the power of anything he pilots. Subtracts 1 from deploy cost of each of your capital starships at same system. Lost if Vader on table and opponent 'reacts' to same location as Ozzel.
Lore
Leader of the Emperor's Death Squadron assigned to hunt down and crush the Rebellion. As clumsy as he is stupid. Has just failed Darth Vader for the next-to-last time.
Strategy
In my Star Wars CCG playing experiences, very few people 'react'. Thus, the chances of losing Ozzel are slim. Furthermore, if a person doesn't have Vader in their deck, then Ozzel is perfect. He is a good Imperial character, despite the fact that his destiny is zero and he can possibly be lost. He is very nice to get in you first draw, when your opponent is low on force to deploy top notch characters like Obi, Luke, and Han.
One can even wait until second turn and smack him down for free while at the same time deploying a couple of trappers at the same site your opponent has deployed to and be able to draw battle destiny. Furthermore, he has the bonus of subtracting 1 from the deploy cost of capital starships, which is especially useful in a low force production game, or with the new, big, beefy, scary Executor. So, all in all, Ozzel is one of the better Imperial cards, especially for those players who can't afford to get ahold of a Vader or Tarkin.
opponent will be unable to react to the same site as Ozzel, and therefore, Ozzel cannot be lost due to your opponent reacting to Ozzel's site when Vader is on the table!

Rulings
- If the react is canceled, Ozzel is not lost. Ozzel going lost is a response to the react resolving and 'coming off the stack' which does not happen for canceled actions.[2]
