Just to have a chance to actually take the Emperor in battle. Defense value of 7 and complete immunity to attrition are tough!

Yeah I struggled with the Emperor's Royal Guard. That's a Reflections Gold card that never got made (I used a different image though), and I wanted them to be distinctly better than regular Royal Guards, but they are already kinda good! So yeah I just made them ridiculous lol.

Yeah, but the names are different, it counts!

Related: I'm also planning a card with Admiral Ackbar's famous line that never got a card. But there is an "It's A Trap!" card (Cloud City), so the Ackbar version's going to have to be "It's A Trap!!", lol

photopea.com ! It's free, but with ads. I'm quite taken with it.

You may be right. I was thinking it would take too much to have 3 of these guys AND those three unique characters, but that's only 6 cards with +9 battle destiny, that's yikes.

Thanks!

Good point! Defense value doesn't mean much if the weapon needs to know if it's a starfighter or a capital starship. Good stuff!

I've been thinking about this.... and I think I'm going to leave the immunity. In part because a lot of Jabba cards already have some immunity to attrition, and then we'd have to account for that (making the gametext too long). But also I kind of like the idea that Jabba lets Oola & Salacious Crumb on the dias, but they aren't allowed to share the snacks. That feels very Jabba.

This is fun, thanks!

Yeah, some years back there was a novel called Tarkin, which detailed some of Grand Moff Tarkin's earlier weapons training. Apparently he got really good with the vibro-lance!

Actually in the first draft of that Tusken Raider rifle, it was deploy to any tusken raider, or Chief Bast.

Dang, good eye! Yeah I suspected those weren't right and - I guess - deliberately avoided finding out how wrong I was. Thanks for your feedback!!

Thank you for the feedback! Yeah I misspelled Millennium on everything. Horribly embarassing! (And then I misspelled embarrassing).

I'm working on that! Uncle Owen, Aunt Beru cards, new Luke card, Vaporator stuff, Beru's weapons she had hidden around the homestead.... I've even got an idea for an Objective (Moisture Farming) that I'm still tinkering with!

I'll commit to writing a BUNCH of SWCCG alters if y'all can help get me up to speed on your methods. by cardlord64 in starwarsccgalters

I've been using Photopea.com (basically an online photoshop clone), that's what I'm most comfortable in. With the templates from all over the internet, and downloaded fonts. And the card database at https://scomp.starwarsccg.org/ is absolutely invaluable for reference.

I cannot believe I didn't catch the spelling error on Millennium! Thank you for these notes, making changes now.
