Strategy
First action: Use Strike Planning to find General Reeikan.
First turn: activation-5. Deploy General Reeikan. Use his text to pull Hoth: Command Center. You should have a Lift Tube or LTE in hand, use it or deploy it to Death Star: Docking Bay. Use Cell 2187 (V) to pull R2. Deploy him to Yavin 4: Docking Bay. Pull and deploy Endor: Docking Bay. Move the R2 to the Death Star: Docking Bay, embark him on the Lift Tube, move it to the Corridor, disembark.
Second turn: activation-8. Free Leia, force drain for 3. Use Reeikan's text to pull the Snowspeeder. Deploy the Snowspeeder to Death Star: Docking Bay. Move Leia and Artoo to the Death Star: Docking Bay, via the Lift Tube. Docking Bay transit over to Yavin 4 on the Snowspeeder. Move Leia to the War Room, flip objective.
Third turn: activation-8. Use Reeikan's text to pull Navander, who will pull Endor.
Remainder of game: play like TRM, battling with EPP's.
Card choices:
Down With The Emperor (V)-Scum is fairly big right now, but their immunity to attrition isn't cancelled by the objective. Also, since Dark Jedi immunity to attrition is cancelled, it's easy to cause them to lose those Jedi.
Escape Pod (V)-Prevents opponent from placing my very few characters out of play.
Liberty-The only ship that goes to used pile when lost.
I think the rest is self-explanitory.
Thanks for looking, and, hopefully, reviewing.
edits:
pointy-eared green dude: Thanks for the review. The Snowspeeders are in there to replace the need for Lift Tubes/LTE. I use less cards and I'm positive to get the stuff out when I need it.
Shewski: I made a few changes, instead of the method you suggested, I just went to the regular Lift Tube, it can flip a turn sooner. It's not as sure, but it should work in most games. Tell me what you think on the RFT.
