Building a List #1 - IG-88

This will be the first in a series of articles on the subject of list building. In these articles, I plan to go through the steps of making a list, going from picking the units to deciding on a general strategy.

This article is going to focus on our newly improved assassin droid, IG-88. For those that haven't seen it, a new card, Focused on the Kill, has come and drastically improved what was once the worst unit in the Scum faction. Due to this, I'll be making my first list in this series highlighting him.

Wave Analysis - Jabba's Palace

Jabba's Palace is probably the wave that I've been the most excited for, out of all of the waves I've seen since I've started playing IA. I'm excited for the options each of the factions are getting. I'm also excited that all of the options look quite usable. It seems that FFG has found a power level that it's mostly comfortable with and most of this wave looks like it's very close to it. I've not seen much that seems terribly overpowered, nor much that's underpowered. It seems to be a good time to be an Imperial Assault player.

State of the Faction - Scum

The first series of articles that I'm going to do on this blog will cover each faction and how they fare against the current meta. I'll go over many of the options the faction has and how well they play. Several of the units will get articles specifically covering them at a later point, but for now they'll get a brief look at them. This first one will be on Scum, a faction I personally don't care to play very often due to the lack of options they have available to them.
