I hear even the low end astromechs can help reduce bandwith usage by random guests.

Here I go!

The Anomid Security Chief really fits the name. I love CJ!
Assault Speeder may be just a tad over cost.
The barabel combat instructor is really cool, as is his Combat instruction SA.
LOVE the chiss political assassin. A fantastic idea well-executed.
The recon pilot dosen't have recon? I like him.
I like the imp agent, nice and simple but flavorful.
LOL I Heart that impulsive Wook!
Jahan is interesting, maybe a bit over cost, not much though.
The Jenet FO is potent! ThumpUp
I'd up the Koorivar's HP to 40 or 50 so he'll make a better bodyguard.
I think you could reasonably lower the Mando Enforcer's cost to 17. He will be eaten alive by even a low end shooter.
Great to see a Miralukan!
I'm a sucker for anything from KotOR 1 or 2, and I gotta say I love your Mission Vao. A powerful shooter while capturing her stealthiness and skill with computers, as well as her friendship with Zaalbar. I might up cost a teeny bit.
I like the peace Brigade troublemaker's flavor, and yeah that shuttle looks cool!
The Shadowport Entertainer is hilarious, well done! ThumbsUp You can drop that no save bit from KYHTY though, unless you mention a save the default is not to give one.
I wanna see the Pirate and Bounty Hunter subfactions! Woot
The veteran alpha RC is cool, might up HP to 50 for better survivability.
And i love the Zabrak NR trooper! Cool flavor.

Nah, heck no! These are pieces we could definitely use, and I love how you make tons of lower costed figures (especially Fringe!) that are Unique (not the SA!), fun to use, well made and well thought out. From what I noticed many people who create custom characters make them to powerful (Guilty as chargedRazz)by trying to put to much on a single character, but you find a great balance for your pieces.

Corran, thanks for the likes on the cards, as to the rest of the critique .....

Assault Speeder may be just a tad over cost. - Change from 26 to 24?

The recon pilot dosen't have recon? Yes, funny that that's always my comment on someone named Recon .... but I didn't want him to be "Overpowered."

Jahan is interesting, maybe a bit over cost, not much though. From 29 to 28? I had a tough time with him.

The Jenet FO is potent! Good or bad?

I'd up the Koorivar's HP to 40 or 50 so he'll make a better bodyguard. 40 it is ....

I think you could reasonably lower the Mando Enforcer's cost to 17. He will be eaten alive by even a low end shooter. .... or add Evade? I wanted him a step up from Mandalorian Blademaster but not quite a full blown mando Jedi Hunter .....

I gotta say I love your Mission Vao. A powerful shooter while capturing her stealthiness and skill with computers, as well as her friendship with Zaalbar. I might up cost a teeny bit. I wanted to go 23 - 26; went with 24; you think 26?

The Shadowport Entertainer is hilarious, well done! You can drop that no save bit from KYHTY though, unless you mention a save the default is not to give one. I actually wanted to give it Twin Attack to differentiate it from the standard Attack of Opportunity ... I seem to have forgotten to add it ... duh! ....

I wanna see the Pirate and Bounty Hunter subfactions! .... yes, another 10-20 pieces waaay in the backburner, but I have sooo many other things popping up I want to try first ....

The veteran alpha RC is cool, might up HP to 50 for better survivability. Actually a Darn good idea; should've thought of that myself.


@Deathwielded - Thanks. I've been making a concerted effort the last year or so to concentrate on decent, playable non-uniques. Probably 80% of my pieces aren't uniques. As to the useable/playable comment, my peers are better judges of that than I.

Thanks for all the comments.

Cheers.

Assault Speeder: Yeah,and I think I'd give it 60 HP. It's very vulnerable as it is atm.
Recon Pilot: Yeah, haha, I agree. He's a cool piece.
Jahan: I think you could reasonably go 27 even. His stats are weak for cost, really weak.
Jenet FO: Good, definitely. Usually if I say something is nasty, potent, or some similar adjective it just means strong in a cool way, not overpowered. I should probably be more clear. Tongue
Mando Enforcer: Evade sounds like a great idea!
Mission: Yeah, 26 sounds about right to me.


@thanks No problem! Always a pleasure to nitpick your customs. Tongue

Various changes made; FYI, this is what I wanted to do with the Entertainer ...

Keep Your Hands To Yourself (Enemy characters moving adjacent to this character are subject to twin, immediate attacks before the enemy character continues its turn; no save.)

What do you think?

Hahaha hi there, I was just about to be guilty of being one of those guest-lurkers until I read these few comments.

Soooo, since you seem to appreciate getting the comments, I figured I'd just let you know hey, I'm the artist responsible for the Fosh and the Shistavanen on those custom cards, and I love seeing those drawings being put to use! I don't play the mini game myself, but have been involved in SW tabletop gaming for years now which we use minis for- I love modding them, we've got TONNES around the house, but yeah, it's been a loooong long time since we last cracked the cards out. The Shistavanen is my personal character so it's kinda cool seeing her image being made useful, but what's most hilarious to me is your take on the Fosh. You've got no idea how much the 'Fussy Fosh' has got me giggling away right here.

That sounds pretty cool. I think it makes her a little bit better but definitely not too strong, since she has low stats and damage.

Hi Guys ...... well ..... Frankly, I haven't been in a Star Wars mood in awhile; I've been distracted and went to the Dark Side for awhile. (I've been repainting old lead D&D miniatures. but I digress ....)

Most of these cards have been mapped out for several months and I've been toying with them occasionally.
With the CCC Weekly contest dominating the Customs thread (... and I have an aversion to doing "Well Known" characters except on a rare special occasion,) I thought I'd whip up my usual stew of mostly non-uniques and one or two relatively unknown Uniques.

Every faction is represented and I've included, I hope, a wide variety of ideas. Here, submitted for your approval, we enter the Twilight Zone .... in alpha order just because ....

Comments always appreciated. I hope you find something worthy. Enjoy.



Admiral Screed Pilots have been on my brain lately. A rather minor EU character but seemed like a fun piece I hope.







Chiss Political Adjuster A political assassin without being one, sorta ...







Den Dhur I've been sitting on Dhen for awhile, never quite sure where to take him







Elder Yuuzhan Vong Mentor I'm admittedly no expert on the NJO, but since the Vong had a kamikaze type mentality as long as they die "gloriously in war" I thought I'd give them a CE that would give them a Final attack.







Killik Hive Alpha Warrior A more powerful warrior type for the mini Killik group I've greated.







Mistryl Team Prime While I was surfing I bumped into the concept that Mistryl teams, rare as they were, actually had leaders. So ... I also made her a Unique. Let's not get carried away here.







Old Republic Lieutenant Thought I'd give the OR Troopers some more firepower ....






Old Republic Ongree Sergeant ... and since the sarge is always worried about getting his boys home, Squad Cover ....







Parja Bralor Fi's girlfriend. Something a little different for the Mando's with a little of everything.







Phanius, Umbaran Jedi Darth Ruin, before he completely went to the Dark Side. Some definite Sith tendencies; I also gave the OR a shot at Sith Sorcery, and returned the favor to the Sith with a chance at Sever Force. Hope I didn't create a monster here ..... but an interesting piece idea I nevertheless hope.







Phindian Trader A rare species; You don't see Jolt too often; it also just seems like a Sep type of ability.







Port Customs Officer A rare Nimbanel. Just a stuffed shirt customs type. Could come in handy if you know your opponent has Reserves coming in or just being a pr@ck about their Rapport abilities. Another stuffy Port type.







Qwohog Smuggler I just love smuggler types. And a new species ontop of it!







Rodisar Training Sergeant Another new species! An interesting addition to the Rebs I hope. The troopers can always use help and I love Sergeant types.







Station Shuttle Pilot A new species, the Seripas. I also wnated to create some love for pilots in the Fringe.







Togruta Explorer I must admit that this girl has been on my backburner so long I felt sorry for her and let her out. What can I say, I'm softhearted.







Toong Diplomat His flavor text fits the look on his face perfectly. Just the type to be delaying a Sith/OR diplomatic meeting while the Sith attack a place like, oh I don't know, Coruscant and the Jedi Temple?







True Sith Archivist Jedaii Order take on a member of the True Sith before they went totally Dark.







Uthar Wynn A unique from the KOTOR game, the Sith Academy headmaster. An interesting guy. Even though he was a natural for a CE, I chose to go with the character after he decided to go after it all alone.







Vuvrian Jedi Knight A new species, another generic Jedi.







Whiplash Undercover Agent I think that if an organization like Whiplash was around, I find it hard to believe that they couldn't find the occasional Jedi in hiding. Did I price him right?







Wraith Squadron Pilot A new species, and a pilot for the New Republic. More of my recent pilot leanings .....







Wroonian Militia I thought the Republic could use a few more non-Clone type soldiers abround.







Xan Droid Specialist Another new species. They likes the heat (which is about all Wook says about them) so I've put him on Mustafar and gave him a abilities that hopefully will help Mustafarians a little.







Yuzzum Smuggler Another new species from Endor; giving them some rapport with Ewoks was Way too obvious. Generic but its what I felt .....







Well, good, bad, or ugly, I hope you enjoyed them. I'm rather busy but I do have about 40+ more floating around. Maybe in a few weeks ....


Cheers.

Excellent work as usual. Custom duty jumps straight out as fantastic ability. Love the chiss political adjuster! Very useful piece. Indian Trader seems dangerous at first glance, but the close grouping for use balances it.

Glad you liked those pieces. I thought that while some were pretty generic, others had some fun ideas in them. I'm hoping, for myself, to try the Whiplash mini next.

Admiral Screed is cool, I like the benefits he gives to Imp pilots, especially since they work with Vader LotF however I am concerned about Vader having 26 defense and getting an extra attack at +23 attack. Maybe make one only for Imp Pilots Followers... I am definitly for Pilot love and getting some commanders with Pilot some use.

Den Dhur I think you picked a good cost range for a character like this, everything you gave him is good, though Karmic Luck is a little weird... That aside might I suggest Recon or something like that to represents his reporting?

Mistryl Team Prime Coordinated Attack is a good SA that replaces the weak CE's that does the same. A good fighter, maybe a little too good, even if you make her unique. At first I didn't like the CE since I thought why use her for the CE when the Dug Black Sun Vigo give the same CE and costs less then I realized that his CE only works on Black Sun characters. So good work there!

Phanius, Umbaran Jedi definitely is a different kind of piece, Betrayal in the OR? Cool. Sith sorcery is a big leap for the OR, but he was dabbling in the darkside... My recommendation is to give him a SA that makes him have a chance to join the opponents squad, like Internal Strife or a similar SA that maybe requires a save whenever using Force points?

Port Customs Officer Interesting idea here. I'm not sure what your opponent has to do if suddenly he can't use his squad because it will cost more than the limit. Remove character/s? Change his squad right before the match? That doesn't sound to good for this guys master! (the player) maybe needs some fleshing out. I would suggest making him Fringe since pretty much every faction would have had Customs Officers.

Toong Diplomat hmm, Betrayal and Diplomat? Doesn't sound like they would work together well at all... Might I suggest a CE or SA that makes it so allies within 6 gain Betrayal? If you are looking for him to "delay" the enemy maybe something like Covert Ops Training (name doesn't fit, but it would make the enemy slow down some)

Whiplash Undercover Agent Great idea! Jedi reserves for the rebels? Count me in! Hard to say if you priced him right... I would say yes, since he cant shoot much better than a Stormtrooper, even with Twin.
