Looks like the 10 bomber is at it again. Your rating just jumped from a 1.0 to a 3.25. Please, if you like the piece say why so we can have a discussion. Dropping 10s like that works, sorta... I guess.

You know if your comment is too long apparently Bloomilk just drops it. Erg. Shorter version... attack at end of round + Surprise Attack + Master Tactician = 6 attacks for something like 250 damage total. Surprise Attack may be too powerful for a big beatstick with Twin and easy access to Master Tactician.

Yeah I figured out the character count once on how long you can actually make a comment before it freaks out and drops it. I guess I didn't think of it like that, more as an expensive way to give him Double/it fit with the character. I kinda figured he'd be maxing out at 30 the first 2 hits and then maybe bumping up to 40 the next 2 but I didn't think of late round set up attacks...hmmm

Opp/JH at end of round for 80dmg. JH to start for 120 more. At some point Bloodthirsty kicks in to boost it even more. Even someone who blocks half or 3/4 of those is likely to go down in flames. 240 dmg?

I liked Bloodthirsty it was something different so I don't know if I want to cut that (and I think fairly represents Papa Palpatine.) What about either cutting Jedi Hunter, giving him an ability something like "Arrogant: This character may not benefit from Special Abilities that would increase his damage that are not printed on his card." Or a combo?

The stats are ok, just seems kinda lacklustre, he doesn't do anything very well.

@CoffeeBean, he isn't chock full of stuff but he does what he can well, as FlyingArrow describes he can fairly easily dump a ton of damage on folks with a probable attack of 18-22.

Any reason he's a follower? As Emperor Palpatine didn't take kindly to being told what to do.

Mainly it is just based on his fit with Yoda, he isn't directly issuing commands (his plan is still in order) but I just wanted to do something a little more Combaty for Palpatine.
