I played 5 Ewok catapults awhile back with a buddy and it was super good. No need to worry about cloak or stealth as you're throwing to a spot.
(I owe this build to Trevor by the way, at GenCon last year, he was hiding around a door with Tulok for like the whole game and I couldn't get a shot at him, it made me decide to find a way to damage people who were playing the hide-and-seek game). Mace is there to be towed to a trouble spot and lay the hammer down.

Lost my first game to Drew like 138-118 and knew it could hang (Sith squad). (Lost 2-1)

2nd Game played Laura with her O/R maybe (Jedi's for sure) and it was too much for her to even get close to hunting down much. Won (3-0)

3rd Game played Trevor and lost 200-180 (3-1) and wasn't worried about losing but thought I wouldn't make top 4.

4th Game played Randy. He needed to win to make top 4 and as it turned out, so did I. I won (3-1) and in a tiebreaker got the 4th spot.

Semifinal game versus Drew in rematch of game 1 of Swiss.

Same map, (mine Anchorhead) and I placed my catapults differently and more spread across. The downside to them is they move so very slowly they almost don't move at all. He has Sith (Tulok, Bane, identical forces with Vaklu and Imperial Agent). First game I killed Tulok by end of round 2 and in a tow and attack (too soon) I went and killed the Imperial Agent and he could attack with nearby Bane. He cut down Mace and I was in trouble then. In this game, I separated the forces with Mace and R2 coming from far right of map and he kept his Tulok away although hurt. He came from the left with Bane to attack the catapults and I towed and dropped Mace right next to Vaklu and the Imperial Agent. No crit meant I didn't kill the IA in one go and I was worried. He fired away and I reflected the damage with a Porg boost that was necessary when I rolled 10. I reflected the next shot, no damage. I reflected one of Vaklu's shots and didn't have FP for the last and it hit. Next round I killed them both. He is focusing on killing all catapults but even though they are distracted and based, they can throw to a square on the other side of him and wound him more. I kill Bane. Time is almost up and when we tally, I won.

Final game versus Trevor's son. Hadn't played him that day. He is running Cad (with charging) and Aurra, Mira (his MVP) and Ventress and Moralo. His map (killed me) Theed. Shooter map if ever there was one. He can use Force Sense 3 rounds and does and the Catapults are toast. He can do 70 damage, and they have 70HP. They are not maneuverable, so they become useless. He's picking apart the two I have near and in gambit. I get annoyed and tow Mace and attack Aurra Sing and with two 17's drop 120 damage and kill her. Then more things do not go my way, he makes every at least 5 or 6 Parry save with Ventress against Mace (including a crit) that would have taken her out. Finish up and lose. Congratulations young man, well-played and the squad you needed in a Jedi heavy day. (Oh yeah, he smoked his dad Trevor in the Semifinal first game, proving he took a tough road to win it...awesome!)

So Moralo Eval and Catapults need errata. I did not have that on my bingo card. Awesome job!
