That is an awesome custom of Admiral Trench. Him and the new Nute Gunray fro BoT work well together. Blockade is a sweet ability. I hope a mini like this come up in a future set.

Minis:
Master Tholme: Republic (I am a huge fan of him so until he is published. I will keep making this suggestion)
Flavor Ability for Tholme: Death Trance (Force X, Replace Turn): This character is considered Defeated until the next around and is not considered a legal target. Special abilities that trigger upon defeat activate. Force Powers or Special Abilities that damage multiple characters ignore this effect)
New Moff Morlish Veed with Affinity (Sith) and CE that brings in non-unique Imperial characters (The original version was horrid)
That's about all for me.

My friend Derek and myself frequently use this ability in customs:
Greater Charging Fire (replaces turn: move up to double speed while still using abilities that grant extra attacks)
It could really make melee more viable if they can come running up and pound you like that

A solution to mouse swarms:
Rapid Flurry: (replaces turn, select any number of legal targets and make one attack against each target. The total printed cost of targets attacked in this manner may not exceed 20 points)
It's an ability that would let you make quick work of mouse walls (you could kill 6 mice) but isn't enough to be souped up like blaster barrage on arica can be as it translates into 6 mice or 4 stormies but is all but useless against high end troops

IMO we need a new royal guard, to replace the cs and rots one, something like...
Imperial Royal Guard. cost 18.
Hp 50
Def 18
Att 9
Dam 20
Melee Attack
Palpatine's Bodyguard
Shockstaff +10

Maybe give them a few more HP, or else they can't compete against the ISP for 7 more points......unless you just give them regular bodyguard, as I can recall Atleast one other instance where a royal guard protected someone other than palps while palps was alive (the imperial captain on kashyyyk)

A movement breaker for seps?
Unit 224
Seps 11
HP 40
Df 14
At 4
Dm 10
Unique
Droid
Droid Coordinator (allied droids get speed 8)
That way you get a much needed meta aspect for seps while avoiding any debate caused by a new ability or CE

The seps could definitely use that movement breaker, nice idea there! Here's an update to the royal guard:
Imperial Royal Guard. Cost 18.
Hp 70
Def 18
Att 9
Dam 20
Melee Attack
Shockstaff +10
Imperial Bodyguard: If an adjacent imperial ally would take damage from an attack,this character can take the damage instead.
Rapport: this character costs 1 less when in a squad with a character whose name contains emperor palpatine.

Insubordination : This character is not affected by (any) CE's.
I think this is perfect for characters like Starkiller. It's like Savage, but with freedom of choice/movement. An obvious spin off would be Impulsive Insubordination.

Every quote in the movies should someday be a special ability...
I Have the High Ground: This character gets +6 Defense versus adjacent enemies in Difficult Terrain or Low Objects.

I would like to see a new Ulic Qel-Droma (as a Jedi maybe), and I know that Fi and Atin are being made in V-Set 3, but shouldn't Corr be made too?

Fanatical Devotion: This character ignores special abilities or force powers that may cause this character to join the opponent's squad.
It's a bit rough. I am still fleshing out the details.
Dark Saber: Replaces attacks; adjacent; make 2 attacks at +10 Attack for 20 Damage. This counts as melee attack and as a lightsaber for the purposes of damage reduction abilities
A dangerous precedent I know. I am working on tweaking it so that it's viable option. But having the ability to do ranged and also do melee. But, I kind of like having a character that does have the option.
I was trying to create a Pre Viszla and thought of these.

I vote for all of the as-yet-unrepresented named characters from the movies. Some of them are actually relatively major...
Most notably:
Chief Chirpa
Boss Nass
Owen Lars
Beru Lars
Watto
Dexter Jettster
Sebulba
Young Anakin
But also:
Yaddle
Yarael Poof
Coleman Trebor
Stormtrooper TK-421
General Tagge
Admiral Motti
Grebleips, the E.T. Senator
Bren Derlin
E-3PO
Imperial Scanning Crew Member

Here are a couple of my customs that are probably already designed and included in the Cantina Brawl, but here they are anyway. New abilities highlighted. Dr. Evazan, Wanted ManCost 20 HP: 70 Def: 17 Atk: 9 Dmg: 20 Special Abilities: Unique Homicidal Surgery Twin Attack Bully 20 (+4 attack, +20 damage versus adjacent characters with lower point cost) Death Sentence (This character may not end its move within 6 squares of a trooper or character with Security in its name) http://www.bloomilk.com/Custom/7471/dr--evazan--wanted-manPonda Baba, Aqualish Cost 14 HP 70 Def 15 Atk 7 Dmg 10 SA: Unique Synergy (+4 Attack, +4 Defense if allied character that counts as Dr Evazan is within 6 squares) He Doesn’t Like You: +10 Damage versus non-Fringe enemies I Don’t Like You Either: +10 Damage if adjacent to an enemy and an ally http://www.bloomilk.com/Custom/7538/ponda-baba--aqualish === In particular, even if a new Dr Evazan and Ponda Baba have already been developed, it would be pretty easy to throw Death Sentence onto Dr Evazan for flavor and then drop his cost by a point or 3.

Skirmish -> (Map Roll)(Map Selection)(Setup)(Round)*
Round -> (Initiative)(First Phase)(Phase)*
First Phase -> (Activation)
Phase -> (Activation)(Activation)
Activation -> (Turn)
Turn -> (Movement)(Attacks) | (Attacks)(Movement)
Attacks -> (Attack)
Looking at the above, we have replaces turn abilities and replaces attacks abilities, but I don't think we have any replaces movement abilities. An ability like that would be interesting since it could still be used with Double/Triple Attacks. Those specify that you can use them if a character doesn't move, not "replaces turn". So they could still use an ability that replaces movement. Here's an example, but it's more the novel interaction that I'm interested in than the specific ability:
Call for Help 15: Replaces movement, roll a die. On a roll of 20, you can add up to 15 points of characters to your squad at the end of this character's turn.
