How would he gain Twin Attack?

It's just a flavor-wise precaution, or in case I make a republic commander to grant twin to clones later or something, or he somehow got into a Separatist/Mandos squad (betrayal etc.).

Nice concept! In gameplay it wouldnt play out as it did in Battlefront though, as this character can't move and attack (whereas in battlefront, the jetpack trooper could fly and shoot at the same time) unless you built a whole squad around this character with SAs and all... Is there some way you could give it Ambush instead, so it can move and make all its attacks against one target? Also, in battlefront, if its that EMP Launcher from the first game, it was pretty much insta-death to droids... still, a solid 9.5 out of 10! if only there were minis for it.

Thanks kobayashimaru =). In the game, they could move and attack, but I figured 30 base damage could get out of hand with flight. I don't think it's as much problem as I thought though, so I'll just remove heavy weapon and maybe up the cost a bit. Yeah, it was pretty much instant death if you got a solid hit, and it is here too in most cases; 30 HP is not exceeded in my BF trooper customs, and most of WotC Battle Droid type pieces are 10-20 too :)

I think that low attack balances out the 30 damage.

I'd dtrop cost to 13. He won't be hittting anyting with a 5 Attack. Otherwise it looks great, another great BF piece! =)
