Please provide comments for this 150 point squad.

Nom Anor
Nikto Gunner on Desert Skiff
Zam Wesell
Garindan
Rodian Black Sun Vigo
Aqualish Assassin
Gran Raider

-Give the Skiff the Ooglith Masquer.
-Zam and Garindan are the Skiff passengers.
-Every figure has super Stealth, and Self-Destruct 20.
-With Zam as a passenger, you can use Kouhun Infestation on a unit that is 28 squares away in a single turn.
-If someone gets close enough, Garindan can combine fire with Zam for 50 points of damage.
-Zam and Garindan can't be targetted with anything because of super Stealth and the cover provided by the Skiff.
-Vigo can add more bombs with an initiative roll of 11.
-Since none of the Flamethrowers that are used to blow up Gran Raiders have Stealth, I've chosen the Aqualish Assassin, since he has gained Grenades 10 courtesy of the Vigo.

It would be a pain in the head of your enemies!

I rate it a A

Maybe you should ask in WOTF boards about the dessert skiff exploding if it affects characters over it. ¿?

Found this.

If a stealthy passenger blows up, only the other passenger and the skiff take damage.

If the skiff blows up, and the passengers fail there saves, the passengers blow up in the air, and aren't adjacent to anyone. If the saves are successful, they take 20 damage, because they were considered adjacent.

Sounds very interesting, I'll have to try giving it a go.

Civilized men are more discourteous than savages because they know they can be impolite without having their skulls split, as a general thing.

It is 149.  I just called it 150 because that is the only constructed format I play.

Ok well if its 149 i have a suggestion, not sure how well it will work.

I dont have the figure myself, but from what i found gran raider is 4 pnts some stats: +2 attack, melee attack, mobile attack, 10 damage

What i would do is get rid of the gran raider. Now that your army is 145 i would replace it with a jawa (brings army up to exactly 150) for the following reasons:

1. Jawa is ranged, so you can attack some characters without completely risking its life. You also dont have to get close enough to worry about attacks of op.

2. Jawa can combine fire to give one of your figures a boost if its against an enemy in cover, or if your character seems to need higher attack.

3. Jawa does equal damage but has higher attack (+4)

Again, i dont have the gran raider so where i got the stats from could be wrong. Also this is just what i would do, doesnt mean you have to do it, just a suggestion.

Let me know what you think of this suggestion and PLZ tell me if the stats are different than what i found!

Gran Raiders have Stealth. Figures with Stealth are granted super Stealth and Self Destruct 20 by Nom Anor. These are the reasons I'm using a Gran Raider instead of a Jawa.

So... is 150 the new standard, or are they still doing 100 and 200?

My H/W list is not current...

I believe its 150 now, not sure tho.

I forgot about stealth on the gran, you should not use the jawa.

There are three legal DCI Formats: 100, 150 or 200.
No single one is "standard", though a particular venue may prefer one over the others.

150?  That's pretty new to me... then again there are few to none DCI events going on near me.  We pretty much just play 200+.

150? new to me too! I always play 200 and used to 100 pts (more for rookies)

What about 300 pts?

high pts games in SWM are not so popular because think about a separatist army and the numbers of activations?

Heh, my finest game was a 500 pointer.  A massive Droid army vrs Jedi Knights and Clone Troopers.  At this point a 1,000 point game isn't too unrealistic for me.  Some advance squad rules might be a tad usefull however...
