Introduction
Royal Guards on Courascant or: Shoot 'em in the foot and bop 'em on the head.
This deck has never been played, and I only just made it today, and I'm unfamilliar with this objectives dynamics yet. This is more or less a prototype.
The published list has 61 cards.

Not much of one just yet. I only made the deck today. But the basic idea is to flip the objective for the +1 drain at battlegrounds. Granted, the characters in this deck arent exactly BG holding material, but thats what undercover is for. If your sensing a horrible beat down, you send your spy under cover. Use your probe droids to moniter your oponents hand, and Sim Aloo to monitor your oponents reserve deck.
Once your guy is under cover, you can give him a blaster or force pike and start whacking people on the head with sniper. You PROBABLY wont kill any really high defense value characters (jedi, Angry Chewi, ect) but if your lucky you can blast Screaming Lando or some other horrible little urchin.
Use control combo to stop drains, or use its Set For Stun text to send people you cant shoot or stab back to their hand. IE: Angry Chewi. The Sniper Combo is in here because I only have 2 snipers. Mabey I'll find a use for it some day. Royal Guards are fun. Deploy for 2, power 3 Forfiet 3, and add 1 battle destiny if he's armed with a Force Pike (which you get with Weapon Levitation) Kanos is just cool. Deply 2 power 5? How can you not like that?! Plus he adds one battle destiny if armed with a stick. He's got the prototype for maintence though. So send him to your used pile once he's done hurting things. Or if you managed to pull Palpy use the 1 force. Myn whats-is-name lets all your Royal Guards react all over courascant. Which is nice. He also has the same destiny trick as the other guards, and he makes them defense value +1. So thats a total of 4 defense value of your Red Shirt is armed with a stick. You need a 5 to hit him. Woo-hoo! Projected Telepathy cancels battles untill you can make your guys vanish, and/or cancels drains if your oponent is going all space. Clouds are fun! I discovered their terrible horribleness in my TDIGWAT deck. So use the combat cars and Obsidian Ties to guard them. Then smack people for a drain of 3 (not sure if it can be 3 at one site or 1 per 3 sites. But its still 3 either way) OR if your not on courascant, your agents can add to the draining power. So thats a 2 (minimum) at most sites!
If you ask why Vader is in here you get slapped, ok?
Notes: I think mabey adding in a few more blasters, force pikes and royal guards would be good. Mabey another Kanos? Average destiny for this deck is rather low. That makes me nervous. And the retrival (or lack thereof) makes me nervous. And the number of spies who are warriors makes me nervous. Because its only like 4.. Adding in some space might be good. I'm thinking the Accuser, mabey the Stalker, and Z in Mist Hunter.
Woo!! I playtested it vs a senate deck. I got owned so fast it made my head spin. Deck definatley needs more force draining sooner. I think ditching the entire courascant theme might be a good idea :) I drew an ungodly number of destiny though. It was fun.
