I'd consider downgrading VAR for a han smuggler, which in turn would let you bring in a (twilek) bodyguard, juno and an uggie. (or downgrade r2 and make that uggie an MC tech specialist or get a beefier bodyguard.)

I love using the force push 4 minis. You do have to follow normal targeting rules, but that is where Luke saves up force points and blasts the 3 point minis, and then VAR uses force push.
If you end up having to use force push 4 on an ug, it's not going to really matter too much because you can force push every turn, and not a whole lot of people are going to place all of their 3 point minis out to be killed. Remember every activation you get rid of ups your points (putting your opponent in more of a desperate position), lowers your opponent's activations, and therefore gives you the overall advantage.
If you do replace VAR, Han Smuggler is a great choice especially since he has accurate shot. Another useful combo will be:
23 Jarael 18 TBSV 3 Ug demo 3 Mouse Droid
That ups your activations by 3, gives you more door control, gives you a great shooter and melee interferance. The Twi'lek Black Sun Vigo will make Jarael triple attack with greater mobile and speed 8 who will be activating others when she attacks. I would say that's pretty good melee interference.
Anyway, I think your original build will do great. I also think diversifying a squad is smart and usually allows for adjustments when it comes to facing certain squads.
