Strategy

Rops was thought to go into ’retirement’ because of Ounee Ta. Notice the excessive amount of Imperial Barriers and Scanning Crews. This is the main defense against Ounee Ta. Use Drop! to decrease his hand size, hopefully it had a few guys that went to used pile. Scan his hand and then use barrier for whatever makes it through all that. If someone plays Desparate Reach, you should have enough barriers to still barrier. If someone plays Inconsequential Barriers you should have at least one more barrier(Inconsequential Barriers can only be played once a turn).

The earliest you can flip is the fourth turn.

(It can be done on the third but it is hard.)

Turn:

1

Deploy Corucant DB, Rendili, SP site. draw force.

2

Deploy SP DB and SP site. make sure you have 2 Imperials in hand.

3

Deploy last SP site. make sure you have ample force to deploy next turn with 2 Imperials and one form reserve deck.

4

Deploy Imperial Commander from reserve deck. Deploy at least two guys from hand. (different locations) Flip!!! Move your guys to make sure that you have 4 ability at each site.

Now you have a couple choices:

1st

Pull out Emperor, Expand, and Overseeing it personally to set up massive drains on Ralltiir. Set up your admiral’s order and make them lose some direct damage.

2nd

Drain ok and take some guys from reserve or hand and go battle a few of his. Your total battle destiny should be +4.

3rd

Make it a combination or what seems best at the time.
