Strategy

so far it has not been beat out of 18 games! and one turniment, this is almost a no teck deck and really no force Retreavel. but it is over welmingly powerful!!

turn 1, activate at least 4 force, surch through your deck to deploy a system and look to see if you have Haven there and look to see if you have R5-M5 V, (if you dont see all 4 droids when ever you look through your resurve deck, then pull up tell you get him into hand)(normaly you will get him on the 1st or 2nd turn). use 3 force for wokling V to pull into hand Haven. end turn and draw what ever is left.

turn 2, activate at least 6, deploy kessil and look and deploy another system from your deck(if not in hand look for the droid), deploy Haven on Rendezvous Point,

deploy R5-M2 to a site. deploy a couple calimari ships to the R-Point and move them to Kessil. pull up whats left.

turn 3 activate at least 9, force drain, look and deploy a system from your deck and deploy coruscant, drop more calimari and move them to kessil and move the other shippes from kessil to tatooine, and so on and so forth. pull up

turn 4 activate at least 12, force drain, deploy for cheep and keep moveing. besure to leave a few force at the end of each turn so that you can keep drawing cards into hand so you can deploy cards every turn.

the deploy cost.

staging areas -1, R5-M2 -1 and desteny +2 for your capital shippes, Haven -2, R-Point -2, total -6 for your non-unique calimari and -5 for all others!!

Home One deploys for 2 if you controle the war room, or it will deploy for 7 to the R-Point.

i save the brite hope and deploy with other shippes after they left R-Point(deploys for 1) same gose for the other non calimari shippes. i alwase save Spiral for a extra power bones and it only deploys for 1 as a react, and when forfitted it will most likely cover all my battle damig and attrition at that system, so i can keep the big guys there to fight.

flash of insight V, its really only one of the tecks in the game, i use it to set my self up for Hight tracking, when i lose force i will lose my highst destiny card last, then i will deploy Flash of insight V and make sure i dont do any thing that will make me lose force. then i have a 4 and another destiny to track.

same gose for out of commission. i place a card from lost pile out of play and then i track a 5.

another teck is advance Preparation V, ok so he dose not have the death star, well it is a floting 6, or i lose it to retieve a card and track it, and if i have Flash of insight V i can pull it back and track another Hi destiny, tracking 3 hi destiny all in one swipe! it works great!

the grounds in this deck is just out standing! i have taken on walkers with this deck, i know its not the smartest thing but i felt safe, super lando+ obi-wan+ Jedi pressence,(only one in the deck so use it wisely or make sure you can get it back), lando is power 12, obi 5, and i get to battle destiny! if i am tracking then i will have no broblem clearing the site. if you have the force get chewie there for power 18!

with R5-M2 on table, your destiny will be

0-4

1-7

2-3

3-20

4-9

5-5

6-2

7-2

if R5-M2 not on table your destiny is

0-4

1-19

2-7

3-10

4-5

5-3

6-2

7-2

its a shame that your deck relise on this little droid, so if you get any extra R5-M2 in had, better hang on, couse ya never know when you will need him again.

i would really like to add a couple more Advance Prep V and a couple more Flash of insight V to help out more with tracking and retreaving. its a great teck and i use it alot in my LSC deck. just cant seem to fit it into this deck though?

if you have not look at Weapons Display V, then i must say you better look again!!!

this card(in my book)is broken, i deploy my shippes to R-Point for cheep, then i move X many to any other system i want, it really helps out big time in the midd and later game, moveing shippes for free all over the place even if they dont have the normal hyperspeed needed to get there. or i can take one card from lost pile into hand, keeps those calimari comeing

i Really need some insight and pointers with this deck! please leave any and all your statments and coments!
