The draft had dropped the (V) on Krayt Dragon Bones, A Dark Time, Imperial Domination and Image Of The Dark Lord.
- Posted 'Mara Jade' dested Mara Jade, The Emperor's Hand; 'Force Lightening' Force Lightning; Drop! is the Coruscant Effect.
Strategy
Lessee... this thing has just been designed at 7 in the morning by two guys who only have about 6 hours of sleep between them, so bear with me. Main strategy behind this deck is to utilize the main battle retrieval cards: Scum & Villainy, Imperial Domination (V), AAA (V), and First Strike. The deck is also, as you can see, fairly high destiny.
To start off with... pull locations and effects like crazy, start dropping the appropriate characters to wherever you need 'em (Palpy to the AC, Vader and DS-61-2 to Raithal aboard Infiltrator, Mara as a beats character). Your main on-table character base is going to consist solely of Vader, Mara, and Palpy, with (hopefully) DS-61-2 backing up Vader on the Infiltrator. This gives you a good spread of characters that you can use with both Scum & Villainy and ImpDom (V). Stormy Garrisons are mainly in here as high-destiny Imperials (for retrieval purposes with ImpDom), and sometimes as backup for Mara beats if needed.
Beyond that... not much strategy. Drain at your two battlegrounds (JP:AC and Raithal) and at Holotable, use Mara beats consistently to keep retrieval going... and have fun. Basically, ECF and I designed this with one purpose in mind: to see the expression on the opponent's face when this actually gets pulled off! >:)
Enjoy!
