Introduction

This ultra-quick (classic) Dark Side deck simulates the sheer numbers of the Empire. This deck (under my control) is undefeated.

Notes

• The draft parser dropped the '- (N)' quantities (13 Stormtrooper, 11 TIE Fighter, etc.); restored. Total 60.
• Starting per the strategy: Fondor, Prepared Defenses, which pulls Mobilization Points and Something Special Planned For Them.
• Tatooine x2 and Tatooine: Docking Bay 94 x2 are unique locations; dested as posted.
• Posted 'Storm trooper' dested Stormtrooper.

Strategy

Use Fondor as a starting location, and Prepared Defenses as a starting interrupt. Play Mobilization Points and Something Special Planned For Them via Prepared Defenses. Immediately take Executor into your hand with Mobilization Points. Tarkin, Motti, and Vader are used to get tons of storm troopers out for free, while the star destroyers get the TIEs out for free. Use the powerful characters and star destroyers to quell any strong rebel forces while your overwhelming number of TIEs and storm troopers force drain and outnumber. Astromech Shortage is a good thorn in the Rebels’ side. The only card I wouldn’t mind changing is Put All Sections On Alert. Since all of the systems in this deck are within 2 parsecs of each other, Executor won’t have any trouble going to different systems.
