We have so many Luke Skywalkers and Darth Vaders that do the same exact thing with a few different Special abilities, Force Powers, and slightly different Stats.

So, this week we're gettin' freaky-deaky. Choose your favorite unique character that has at least 2 versions/stat cards representing them (doesn't matter if it's WOTC, V-Set, or a mix). Next, create a new version of that character that is drastically different in game play and design than any of the existing renditions.

When it's time to judge, you should consider the following:
1. Does this character feel different than existing versions?
2. While different, does this card still feel appropriate in flavor and accuracy to the character it represents?
3. Is this character any good and worth playing over existing versions?

Good luck!

1. The character must be canonical to either of the Canon or Legends continuities but must be from the chosen faction when required. They can have affinity, but the character must start in the chosen faction.

2. You may update any existing versions you already have and/or create a new one. You may update/create several versions of the character but you must ultimately select 1 you wish to run with. (this must be done by the schedule below)

3. Place a hyperlink in this forum to make it easier to find your character. You can just post the stats or image here but if changes are needed it would be easier (and save space) if you just used a Hyperlink (If you don't know how to post Hyperlinks in a forum setting please ask and we will help you. It's not hard )

4. Voting works as follows, pick your three favorite customs based on accuracy to the character, design, balance or whatever you decide makes the best incarnation of the challenge character. First place receives 3 points, 2nd place receives 2 points, and 3rd place receives 1 point.

5. You do not have to enter the contest in order to vote. But unless you enter you must have at least 10 forum posts.

6. To make things fair you must vote in order to win the contest. You must choose three characters entered in the contest and you may not rate or vote for your own character.

7. The winner will be decided by how many points they receive. Ties will be broken by most 1st place votes, then if still tied, 2nd place votes and then 3rd place votes. If still tied, then the outcome is a tie.

8. You may not change or update the entered character AFTER the deadline.

You will have until Saturday June 26, 2021 @8pm EDT to get your submissions in. Anything submitted after this point will not be included in the voting.

Voting will start at 8pm Saturday evening and end at 11pm EDT on Sunday June 27th.

At the conclusion of the voting the scores will be tallied and the winner will start a new topic with their choice of theme.

Fun idea!
I enjoyed Mace Windu's aggressive force powers. I still desire him to be able to kill Talon if he got to him. Doing 80 is a must.

I would think his force powers are very powerful to use. Mace Windu claimed to have killed over 100,000 battle droids. Methinks he is not one trip boast.
He is more complex then just "swing your lightsaber, and swing it some more". The 65 point Mace seems so iffy to use with the rolls of the dice needed to be so high. But where are this might man's force powers?

Force crush is what he used to severely damage Grievous.
I would love to know your thoughts!

1. Chewbacca of Cloud City - I think there can be a place for this piece. Really showcases the wookiee and mechanic attributes very well.
2. Grievous - I wish I knew his story a little more to know about the Self Destruct and Rolling Evade and Fire Support Mission. I do enjoy that he seems to be a conniving Grievous and different then the "above average attacker and droid Commander Effect"
3. Kenobi - I think this Kenobi will never die.


Jar Jar Binks Sith Infiltrator. I LOVE the idea of Disruptive in Sith and/or Separatist. However, Jar Jar the sith is not canon or legends it is just a theory. so I cannot vote for it.

Darth Jar Jar is not just a theory. Search your feelings, you know it to be true.

Bain, hilarious but also pretty overpowered to drop in un-targetable disruptive into your opponents starting area.

Udorian, man epic Windu, at first glance I thought it was too similar to other Windu versions but then I saw those sweet Force Powers. Poor Grievous knows that force crush well haha. Definitely an excellent force power character.

Argon, another force heavy version of a classic this week. I like it overall though he would be a pain to kill haha. At least Dooku can still lightning and push him haha. I do think his cost should come up a bit maybe to 85-100 range.

Adam, a lot of fun here and a much more techny version of our favorite Wookie. Maybe a bit too wordy for his cost but with uniques and how text-heavy Reprogram is, it’s hard to get around. Well done here.


Cool and different entries this week and going with:

3rd Argon
2nd Udorian
1st Adam



Also Udorian I should have put in the backstory, but he used Vulture droids as kamikaze drones to take out key targets during the assault on coruscant. And this is meant to reflect him on the bridge of The Invisible Hand as he calls in waves of fighters and orders them to their deaths.

1. GG - I found this design refreshing and is a nice change to existing GGs.

2.DarthBane - I'm a big fan of this theory, and it's a very powerful and different jar jar, but still exists to run chaos utility.

3. Udorian - I liked the more force power oriented design of your mace.

Thanks for the votes, I'll post a new CCC soon.
