He's definitely better than Visas - they both play a bodyguard support role, but Visas's (is that right?) anti-stealth capabilities are only useful if your opponent has stealth figures. Ferus is a good bodyguard and an excellent clean up attacker, which will always be useful.

I don't think that Visas is overpriced - however, her cost-effectiveness increases exponentially when used against the proper squad. Would you disagree that she's very useful against a Nom Bomb SS Squad?

The difference is that Visas, beyond a bodyguard, is only situationally effective. Ferus will be very useful, and you're right in that if he has already taken out Cad Bane or another expensive power shooter, I'd be ok if he betrayed. I wouldn't ever want it to happen, but if he's earned his points back then I'll be ok. In the right squad, Ferus will be able to dish out a ton of damage for his cost - I'd have to do some checking, but I think in his price range he has the highest damage output on his own, let alone with the proper support.

The more I think about it, the more I like him. He'll be a good addition, and I hope that he is proven to be effective as time goes by.

I imagine I will enjoy using this one, like many rebels, he's fairly small in price. But sweet Jesus, what a well concentrated package of abilitys we have here. Beefy defence, HP and attack for 27 points, along with Dark temptation which causes his damage to rocket and access to two of the strongest factions... Pretty interesting.

He's one thats alright on his own, but considering his access to evade, mobile/greater mobile, swap, momentum, he's definately one of those charcters to mull over, and in all honesty is probably best compared to Kol skywalker, only this one can beat much harder as a last resort and has slightly smaller stats.

Definately one of the interesting pieces of the set, again, I doubt he will overhaul the game like both incarnations of Obi-Wan, but like Kir, I really feel he has his place somewhere and will change the game in his own way. Finally, a double attacker worth being scaried about! XD

I didn't even notice the LS Block boo boo on the card. At least that's not a new force power. We are all familiar with how LS Block works.

I'm liking the EU characters in this set. Dass, Bomo and Ferus are great additions to the game. Even Kir Kanos is a good add, albeit boring.

@Falconjo - I can't quite make out the flavor text on Olin's card. What does it say?

Thank you for the flavor text. Very appropriate for Ferus. Love the character and the game stats. Thanks again Falconjo.
