Strategy

Basically your standard blow-and-drain... with a twist. You'll notice that I've included the Death Star Tractor Beam and two copies of Besieged; any space-based light side deck should be running a copy of Advanced Preparations (V) with standard gear for popping the happy fun ball under their shield. If a space force moves towards the Death Star, they've got a LOT going against them: TIE's with guns, multiple battle destinies, and me capturing their starships left and right.

You've got enough named destroyers to give you some hefty power and retrieval, some power-hitters for the ground, awesome defenses on the Death Star, plenty of drains and damage, and an easy shot at Alderaan. What more could you want?

No strat this time, sorry guys. If you can't figure out the basic concept of a SYCFA Flip deck, don't bother reviewing.
