This one is a bit different. Just a squadbuilding puzzle this time.
Darth Jim and thereisnotry are about to roll initiative for the first round of the game when Jim looks down at his squad and says, "Hey - look at this! I have 10 different colors here - a card for each of the 10 factions in my squad, but it's a legal squad!"
Darth Jim and thereisnotry are playing with normal squadbuilding rules, not a booster draft where you can ignore faction restrictions during squadbuilding. So what was Darth Jim looking at?
Two winners for this one:
1. The first person to figure out a valid squad for what squad Darth Jim might be looking at. (Bonus if the winner is actually Darth Jim.)
2. The person who posts the squad with the smallest cost that meets the criteria.

I'm thinking it's either Sith or New Republic. I can't get either of them past 8 factions, though.

I think I got the Sith past 9 factions, but there is just one faction I can't figure out...

If you get a solution today, please email it to me instead of posting it so that others have a chance to work on it.

any thoughts on how to get the rebels? Yeah, Rebels is where I'm stuck, too. You can shave a few points off by using the Elite Gunner instead of Atton and a Galactic Alliance Scout instead of Tahiri (affinity from Caedus).

Yeah, I figure that if there was a squad where you could fit all 9 factions and then Garm, that would help. Or if you could get Anakin Solo into the Sith...

Awesome! First prize to Weeks with a strong assist from SignerJ, CorranHornSux123, and Echo24.
But you won't believe what happened the next day. Darth Jim and thereisnotry sat down to play again, and just as thereisnotry was about to take the first activation of the first round, he said, "Wow - look at my squad. Just like you yesterday - I have a character from every faction in the game in my squad. And this time we're only playing a 200pt game. Crazy!"

I can't seem to get that many in 200; 8 or 9 so far.

I'd guess he's playing republic using
kazdan (Rep)
Jax Pavan (Rebels)
Jedi Instuctor (OR)
Bardan Jusik (Mando)
Grey Jedi (NR)
Marn Hierogryph (Fringe)
Marn takes some Vong reinforcements and TINT rolls Kazdans reserves on initiative to bring in a Krath War Droid (Sith), a Battle Droid (Seps) and an RA7 Protocol Droid (Imps).
