IG Commando 1.0

• Versions
• 1.0

A fun, aggressive, guns blazing deck!

You can Ace in the Hole a Darksaber and then play it for 2 on IG-88 - Assassin Droid with his special. If you can get the Darksaber on IG, its die value will be increased by 2. But that's just for fun. Ace in the Hole is really there for Relby-V10 Mortar Gun or Jetpack for an extra damage boost. They can then sit in your discard pile with the threat of being played cheaply should you roll IG's special.

You also have a trusty pair of LL-30 Blaster Pistols, a Verpine Sniper Rifle, and an Ascension Gun.

But it's not all about the weapons. There is plenty of incremental damage from Mandalorian Super Commando's power action, Underhanded Tactics, Backup Muscle, and Petranaki Arena - Geonosis. There's also potentially devastating surprise damage from Paid Off and Fight Dirty.

Espionage works well with IG-88 - Assassin Droid's special and can give you a great opening play. Cheat is there for its general utility, to increase your options. For instance, you can recycle an Ace in the Hole, or if you have one in hand, recycle a Relby-V10 Mortar Gun.

There's not much defence here! Hardly any defensive-minded events, just Take Flight and Unpredictable, and they're in there more for attack than defence. But you do have Armor Plating and Mandalorian Armor, and both characters have two shield sides.

Optional upgrades or changes: X-8 Night Sniper of course, I only left this out because I don't have any. Subdue and/or Electroshock could be swapped in for more defence. Nefarious Deed and/or Relentless Pursuit for character assassination. Friends in High Places could work too.
