Defensive Shields

These cards were posted as Defensive Shields outside the deck.

• 1x A Tragedy Has Occurred
• 1x Don't Do That Again
• 1x Ultimatum
• 1x Another Pathetic Lifeform
• 1x Do, Or Do Not
• 1x He Can Go About His Business
• 1x Ounee Ta
• 1x Battle Plan
• 1x Wise Advice
• 1x Your Insight Serves You Well
• 1x A Close Race

The eleven cards listed after AUAOF in the starting section are dested as Defensive Shields outside the 60 (the other nine starting cards match the 'Starting (9)' header): A Tragedy Has Occurred, Don't Do That Again, Ultimatum, Another Pathetic Lifeform, Do, Or Do Not, He Can Go About His Business, Ounee Ta, Battle Plan, Wise Advice, Your Insight Serves You Well, A Close Race. Eleven is one more than the usual ten.

Notes

• Wise Advice and Battle Plan sit in the run of shields under AUAOF, so they are the Reflections III shields here (unlike the starting-effect precedent); counting them in the deck would make 62.
• Original-era (V): Sai'torr Kal Fas (V), Han's Heavy Blaster Pistol (V) (Virtual Set 1); Escape Pod (V), Luke's Back (V) (Virtual Set 2); Han (V) (Virtual Set 3); Seeking An Audience (V), Civil Disorder (V), Princess Leia (V) (Virtual Set 6).
• ovs_pick returned a Virtual Set 7+ page for Chewbacca (V) (Virtual Set 13) because sets 7+ are treated as legal from 2004-06-01; the code comment says 'only after 2004', so the newest Virtual Set 1-6 printing is used: Chewbacca (V) (Virtual Set 3).
• Posted Heading For The Medical Freight dested Heading For The Medical Frigate; Dejirak Gameboard dested Dejarik Hologameboard; Boss Nass's Chamber dested Naboo: Boss Nass' Chambers; Boussh dested Boushh.

Strategy

Average Destiny: 2.7

First turn: Deploy a docking bay. If possible, deploy Lando, Chewie or Threepio. Draw.

Deploy a docking bay every one of your turns. Use The Signal to pull and deploy Civil Disorder (V), followed by Goo Nee Tay.

Deploy characters to Tatooine, use their game text or Sai'torr Kal Fas to pull and deploy their matching weapons.

Free Han, flip objective as soon as possible using EPP guys, crazy Lando.

Spread out characters at battle grounds, protect Han with Ben Kenobi, and begin to profit-damage and force drain.

The object of each battle should be to "hit" as many of opponent's characters as possible, and in every battle you start, you get to retreive a character. This process, or kind of "retreival" battle, makes your characters expendable.

After several of these "retreival" battles, opponent's character supply should wear thin, allowing you to continue to profit-damage, Force drain. Opponent's lack of characters will put him into evasive action, giving you the chance to totally wipe out his line of characters!

Pull A Gift using Don't Do That Again, deploy it on Threepio for an anti-alien environment.

Use Launching The Assault to pull Home One. Use Mantellian Servrip to keep Home One alive by forfeiting characters -- characters which will be retreived by Civil Disorder (V) -- directly from hand.
