This is the Sith commander version of Vader. Doctrine of fear just fits Vader very well. Speed 4 is because Vader is too cool to run, rather walks slowly toward his victims. Dark Grip represents his telekinetic prowess and can be used to set up an enemy character for slaughter (for example, by moving them into range of DoF, Basing them with a heavy hitter, ect)

{part2}Sith Sacrifice works like a lesser version of Advanced Battle Meditation, (minus the board wide disruption of CE's) instead of costing his turn it costs the life of one of his allies. This killing of an allied character can also be advantageous towards activating Impulsive SA's (choke Wicket to death Mwhahaha!) and activating Self Destruct. His CE motivates those lesser characters to do their job. Sith Hatred sounded right when I first put it on but on second glance maybe I should remove it?

In the Battlefront games though, Vader seems VERY fast because he floats with the Force. Maybe Master Speed? I like it though. I bit undercost I think, but nice none the less.

Well if we are using Battlefront as our guide then I should make a Hoth Luke Skywalker that is UNTOUCHABLE! (seriously could never kill him, your only options was run away and try to compete with him in kills) I think Speed 4 and a lack of MotF2 helps lower his cost, Dark Grip helps so his enemies won't be able to escape him. Vader running fast would probably tire him out to much, but a burst of speed (via Master Speed as you suggested) might fit him well. If I do do that then I will remove Sith Hatred and up his cost by say 5 points?

Dark grip is very interesting and powerful. However, I think it needs to be reworded. Is it intended to move a target up to 6 squares? As of now, it is rangeless and can move the target to anywhere within 6 squares of Vader. That is likely too powerful. My guess is you intend it to be a focused tweak on Sith Battle Manipulation but the wording doesn't match that intent.

Yes thank you, I basically used the text from Levitation 1 for the wording when Sith Battle Meditation's text works much better.

On Sith Sacrifice, I suggest adding the term, "it is defeated" to follow similar existing abilities.

Updated adding Most2, upped his cost by 5 and removed Sith Hatred. Also changing the wording of Sith Sacrifice
