Beat me by a hair :P
I was wondering, since it says Damage (capital D) then it would double with crits right?

as far as i knew, you ONLY multiplied the base damage.
some abilities, like shaper, allow you to multiply the effect on a crit, because it states it on the card. same thing goes for Vicious.

Quick Robin! To the rules forum!  Actually, just check the glossary for critical hit. It seems clear enough.

The insert says nothing about it changing the base Dam stat. So no.
About what I was expecting for the Sergeant. An extremely fragile piece, that will have a LARGE target on his head. He is going to be fun to experiment with.

The ability to double with crits isn't stated on the card, therefore having Roger Roger is a different ability than Shaper +10 (for example)

A 16 point Battle Droid? I can't say he is that appealing. His Roger, Roger does give a boost to non-unique droids, but it's not a CE and cannot be boosted by a MD. You'd need to put a could of these in your squad to be really effective with a range of 6. Having only 20 HP, he would be my first target if he was on the board. He cost almost twice as much as the BDO and they both need each other to be effective.
Just my two cents.

A agree with ArtemisCFrog43. The Sergeant is very weak and will have to stay pretty close to the action to be effective. Horrible sculpts.

Just my two cents. I agree. I expected him to cost about 13 points, because WotC generally only undercost Republic and Rebel pieces (at least more than the other factions), and that's about where I thought he could be with stats similar to the BDO. At least it will take an Accurate Shooter (though not much of one) to take him out because he'll probably be behind a wall of Mouse Droids for most of the skirmish.

Yeah, Roger, Roger is much more powerful than Fire Control, even with the range limitation. He will be pretty dangerous with quite a few Droids.

I might put him within 6 of a chameleon droid as long as he was well behind a wall. Would work well in a bottle-neck situation, but would be a toss up between this guy and one of the old overseers.
+10 damage or Double Attack? At least the Sgt could shoot or combine fire at some point.
I love the flavor text though; "but I just got promoted!"

With max ce's, a battle droid is like this:
Battle Droid
Seperatist
Cost: 3
Defence: 13
Attack: +8
Damage: 10 +10
Twin Attack
Double Attack
Careful Shot
This means 4 attacks at 20 damage and +12 attack. FOR THREE POINTS!!!

So this means mouse droids can finally attack & damage lol? so with Gha you can get a 2pt piece with a +8 att & +4 def,double & twin if you use GG DAC & BDO with these droids, Geo Overseer is gonna be dropped now for that new droid since you can relay his CE now..

Ever thought of using the sergeant with Mousies not for the damage but for the CE extension? Now he doesn't have to walk out and be gunned down immediately by a 6-attack Rex.
