To be specific, not necessarily talking about a Jedi spending a FP to move an extra 2 squares.

More about moving 24 and attacking, speed 10+ master speed, Daala squads with charging, Lah Warriors with charging, etc.

Just confirming - you're fine with Daala and charging Lah Warriors?

I am fine with speed as well, I just hate a lot of damage with speed.
I dont really think there is a reason for a piece to do more than 40 on the move more than 6 squares without being a special piece or a high cost piece. (think Thon, Bane, Cad Bane, etc.)

I do not like twin on speed pieces as a general rule (unless maybe its melee).

I just think there are other great ways to design with movement that do not require speed and attack and good defense.

I've gotta agree with this as well. It's one thing to be able to get into the conflict or a strategic position quicker, but another to be able to slam into the enemy like a mack truck (unless there's some sort of severe downside to compensate).

Some ability where you get -4 Defense until your next turn would be cool - and very fitting BigGrin

And I think some things deserve the Mack Truck feel - mainly the big beasts like the Reek and Krayt Dragon and such. Ironically, folks like Embo and Vima have a better sprinting body slam than the massive dragons do Flapper Confused Huh

Well my computer is stupid. As my arrow went over the options (I did not click at all) it just instantly says "thanks for voting". I didn't even get the opportunity to go over one of the other options as this just voted instantly. Disregard that vote please. We need some counters.

It is annoying you can't change your vote. I accidentally hit the wrong one in a different poll as well.

I'm fine with speed and attacking, but not with non-uniques. I feel it should be an ability for unique pieces.

I prefer them over strafe and galloping, but swarm + speed have been shown to have issues, see dalaa before changes.

Im fine with speed, its when they get stuff like charging +10, twin, etc… that bug me.
I think if they have charging or furious assault or speed whatever, they should get double or extra attack. That way its a choice, do i charge or do i stay still and get an extra attack. Its probably not a great solution, but overall im pretty neutral on this topic

Twin and any type of charging/assaulting with a non unique is absurd. Moving 12 squares or more and being able to do more than 40 damage as a non unique is absurd. Uniques I can agree with because they are Uniques...

*Note this issue would be helped a lot with Board wide CE no longer being Board wide...

Huges and airspeeders should be the only thing moving more than 12 squares. Beasts/Jedi/Vong should be able to run 12 and hit but everyone else should be 6 squares
