______________________________________________________________

Character Bio - Gamorreans are known throughout the galaxy as an unintelligent race of brutes. Numerous Hutts employed various Gamorreans to use as guards throughout the ages. One of them was the intergalactic kingpin of crime, Jabba the Hutt. He was fond of hiring Gamorreans because they were so inexpensive, as well as because their thick mindedness made them immune to dirty tricks such as bribery. However, this same thick headedness left the Gamorrean Guards vulnerable to the Force powers of the Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker.

-Rulings and Clarifications-
Q: What happens when an opponent attacks my Boba Fett and an adjacent Gamorrean Guard uses its Bodyguard special power? Can Boba Fett then use Boba Fett's Guile, since he "receives no wounds from the attack"?

A: No. Boba Fett has to receive wounds to activate the Bodyguard power of the Gamorrean Guards. Since Boba didn't block the attack, Boba Fett's Guile is not triggered.

These guys add some slow-rolling, heavy-hitting power to the Lobot's Guards build!
