Card Text

Adds 2 to power of any starship he pilots (3 if starship is Tyrant). When on a Star Destroyer, may use its Tractor Beam once each turn during your control phase.

Strategy

By Brian Kallenbach[1]

Lennox is one of the many power 2, ability 2 characters that the Dark Side has at its disposal, and has a few interesting points that can make him a mainstay in almost any Imperial deck. First, he is both a pilot and a warrior, which can be helpful in many situations. Characters like Lieutenant Tanbris are only pilots, giving them less usability on the ground. Second, like Officer Evax, Lennox has an amazing forfeit of 5. The two of them together can protect even the weakest of starships, without having to worry about losing one of your Star Destroyers.

Combos:

Captain Lennox + Tractor Beam - this combination is relatively obvious, but can have many dramatic effects on the game. Besiege your opponent's Falcon, or Corvette, and use it as your own. You can even Besiege a Rebel Leader or Squadron starfighter, giving you a nice power boost, as well as an extra 2 ability.

Reviews

  • Jeff Hansen, "Captain Lennox", Neglected Card Series, Corellian Engineering Corporation (2000). Hansen praises his extra tractor beam use each control phase aboard a Star Destroyer, best aboard the Tyrant. "Don't let his wart scare you! Lennox is a tractor beam maniac!"[2]
