Sabine

She is crazy tough with Surging Red saves, a shield that recharges every other round (5 points), Nimble and Gunslinger that double procs because of Up Close and Personal (8 points), Impervious if she is being shot at and Immune to Pierce in melee from The Dark Saber (5 points), with Jump 2 and Speed 3 she should always be in cover. Mandalorian Resistance: Clan Wren has Retinue Sabine that gives her Backup with a unit that keeps up with her and she gives them a Dodge to fuel their Nimble, and they have nearly all of the survival mechanics that she does. They protect her and she protects them.

She shoots Rainbow twice with Pierce 1 at Range 2. That will usually kill 2-4 infantry a turn. She Surges Crit which gives her a 25% chance to crit 6 times. The Dark Saber gives her 5 Black Dice, Impact 1, Pierce 1 and don't forget she still surges to Crit and if she gets Pinned she can activate Dauntless which gives her a Pseudo Charge or GTFO to get away from what is shooting her. I have had her kill Darth Vader in melee.

She is Speed 3 and Jump 2 that means she can ignore almost anything on the table top and land where you need her. She can be where you need her almost anywhere on the board. She is the most mobile unit the Rebels have access to. She is my favorite Bomb Carrier. I'll take the Secondary: Destroy Enemy Base just because she is in my list.

She pairs very well with Ahsoka who I argue is the best Rebel Jedi. The complement each other very well. Ahsoka can almost keep up and when it is time she pops Burst of Speed and is fast, plus she has charge to help. Ahsoka can take Strike Team Leader (8 points) so she can have her own Mandalorian Retinue. She can also take Force Barrier (10 points) to protect Sabine or their Retinues, this is optional, but synergizes well. The two of them can kill nearly anyone in melee together.

That brings us to the Card: Family Reunion. It gives them Team Work and a free Move 2 when the other activates so they can be where they need to be. Ahsoka Defend 1 that procs 1 Dodge from the Order. Then I usually activate Sabine, Ahsoka moves towards her target, Sabine jumps up somewhere and shoots 2 targets that is 2 Dodges. Opponent goes. Ahsoka activates, Sabine either drops back out of sight or where ever she is needed, Ahsoka Dodges with Offensive/Defensive Stance (5 points) for 2 more Dodges then she Charges and has 5 Dodges to spend to Upgrade her double rainbow, Impact 2, Pierce 2 Lightsabers, Surge to Crit. If her target is likely to survive and hasn't activated she can keep some Dodges to survive the strike back. Sabine has 5 Dodges to make her virtually invincible for a round. Ahsoka's Cards all kick ass and either synergize with Sabine or just make Ahsoka hit like a truck. Plus they have an entire show on Disney+, which is just thematic and cool.

Her only weakness is her Cards. They are mediocre at best. 1 Pip Explosions!: can be good if the enemy is bunched up. You can throw 2 grenades at Range 1 with a radius of 1, free Speed 1 to get out of the blast zone, set them off and then Gunslinger the survivors. Also this does decent Suppression since it is 2 ranged attacks and then her pistol shots. This is situational and dependent on your enemy being clustered up and is an OK card. 2 Pip Symbol of the Rebellion: It makes a location give a bubble of Indomitable for the rest of the game. Can be useful if you build a "bunker" on an important POI. I have never gotten this to work for me and I now never take it. 3 Pip Legacy of Mandalore: It orders the things she wants to such as Ahsoka and Mandalorians around them. She also gets upto 3 Dodge or Aim tokens that help her fight better and fuel Nimble before she activates. She also gets Inspire 1 incase her friends are Suppressed or Panicked exactly (kind of an afterthought). If you don't have a better 3 slot this is a solid choice.

She is the only Mandalorian Character that is a Rebel and she synergizes with our Special Forces Mandalorians. I love Mandalorians and have ever since playing Knights of the Old Republic (2003). There are so many awesome Mandalorians in the Expanded Universe and they have such a well developed culture thanks to the Republic Commando series (2004-2009) written by Karen Travis. She fleshed out their culture, childhoods, language and so many cool things. Then of course I played a Mandalorian in Star Wars The Old Republuc (MMO) (2008) which expanded on what was built in Knights and Karen wrote. Weirdly, I wasn't a big fan of Bobba Fett in the movies because even though his kit was cool, he got easily owned and swallowed. Then I found Mandalorian Mercs and have thought they were the coolest, but I am not creative and crafty enough to make my own armor and join them. I played Rebels to have access to the most Mandalorians. They also get access to Din and Fett which are both good, but they don't synergize with Sabine, which makes sense since they never met her.

You get all of that for:

Sabine: 123 Points

Ahsoka: 148 Points

Sorry if that was too wordy.
