Looks like I was an outlier in going for the low-cost pieces. I was looking to improve the filler options, especially for door control, spreading CEs, and activation control.

Whoo hoo! It all looks so awesome!
I tried to make mine a more well-rounded set of what I personally wanted to see. I think if my set had to face off against any of the pieces from the other sets, mine would lose because everyone else's seem so powerful.

Just make a Darth Vader cost 5 points and you'll have no trouble winning! Making it powerful is easy - making it competitive and interesting without making all the existing pieces obsolete is the trick, I think.

We should start a poll and have a Round by Round elimination. Since there are 20 entries maybe start with 1, 6, 11, 16 then 2, 7, 12, 17, then 3, 8, 13, 18 followed by 4, 9, 14, 19 and 5, 10, 15, 20. Have a voting by all of the SWM community and the winner of each round go on to the finals and a final vote on the overall winner. Makes a little sense, I think.

As we're rating these characters, how should we rate them? Should a way unreasonably undercosted figure be considered great (10) since he's so powerful or horrible (1) since he breaks the game and/or is unreasonable to actually make?

I think we should try not to ruin the game by being unfair. So 1 since he breaks the game. In my opinion....

A custom should have 3 bases from which to rate:
1: Creativity: What kind of new stuff does the piece bring, or new interpretation of a character.
2: Balance: How fairly costed is it.
3. Accuracy: How accurate is the piece to the in universe descriptions.

My set Dark Empire has my own comments on it for modifications or little things I somehow missed. Check it out and send me feedback. :)

Just a quick question I noticed that Sithborg has 2 custom sets, not there is anything wrong with that, I was just wondering how you got 2 on there, is there a way to make new sets? Or did you just send Shinja 2 sets?
