Strategy

Man, this was a hard deck to make! There's just some many new cool strategies out there! It's hard to squeeze all of 'em into one 60 card deck. This deck makes ample use of the new Effect, Combat Responce and ties that in with the Admiral's Order, Fighter's Coming In. First off, start with either Kashyyyk or Kessel. Use Prepared Defenses to get you three deploy for free, deploy on table, immune to alter Effects. There Is No Try, Secret Plans and Combat Responce are the ones you'll want to get. You can switch these out with others based upon your desire... But, Combat Responce wants to be there. While Combat Responce and Fighters Coming In are corner stones to this deck, the Weapons (and effect use of them) and key! By using these weapons you can effectively knock out S-foils (with Cross Fire) and start clowing away his ships... Because you can use Combat Responce to search for matching pilots/ starfighters you won't have to draw up as much. Save as much Force as you can for your weapons fire. In a pinch, you can still fire these weapons without any Force (you just won't get to add anything to the weapon destiny). This allows you to play I Can't Shake Him to add a destiny. Lateral Damage and Tallon Roll are there just in case the Super Falcon shows up. Roll that ship as fast as you can... You don't want to get caught shot against that thing! Experiment with it and see how it works for you.
