HOLD STEADY
Begin the game with a Hold Steady Marker on this card. Whenever a Rebel Trooper you control moves, if the Hold Steady Marker is on this card, remove it. If no Rebel Troopers you control move during their turn, you may place the Hold Steady Marker on this card. While the Hold Steady Marker is on this card, add 1 die to the defense of all Rebel Troopers you control.
 
Wait Then Fire, except for defense!

And very thematic! Nice! :up:
 
Yes, it's Wait then Defend. It's a bit tricky to trigger sometimes...but help will be coming.
 
Does multiple army cards for the rebel troops ability stack? So of I had four army cards of rebels and they all hold steady does that mean they all get plus 4 defense?

No. That might make them worth drafting though.
 
Leia and Marcus Decimus make an even better combination.

Unless of course theirs a rebel captain or other significant rebel persons in star wars coming out soon.

I would say so:

Perhaps General Mandine?

Let's just say there is something coming that will bring these guys up from a C to a solid squad. :twisted:

Also, the Marcus + Leia combo is nice, but it can get expensive. I have found that for 500 point army this group works nicely:

Obi-Wan + Leia + Rebel Troopers x4 + C-3PO + Marcu.

For 600 points, you can add MDG to that grouping (which 600 points will probably be the standard for HoSS battles).
 
So, if figures with the Hold Steady Marker are moved by an opponent's figure, they will lose their bonus, correct?

Correct. I suppose this is odd against Force Push or any other power that can move opponent's figures (Throw, Knockback, etc.) but "it's a game not a simulation." haha
 
They get the defense bonus because they've had time to get set in position. If they move or if someone else moves them, they are out of position need time to reset.
 
I do like the fact that they are portrayed in the game like they were in the movie. Not as nicely equipped but cheaper, and less of them greater determenation under defense cough cough {hold steady}

Not a huge deal, but it appears that when you print the PDF for this card the hold steady marker doesn't actually appear.

The PDF has been updated. Thanks for the heads-up on this and the other issues.
 
Just noticed that these guys and the Rebel snow Troopers synergies have Leia's power listed incorrectly twice instead of being listed as Rebel Leadership
