[...] Vader is the damaged, almost handicapped version of the "chosen one" in a time where the Force (and followers thereof) had dramatically diminished in the world of Star Wars. He can't breathe by himself. [...]
Mmm, I agree in part with you, but in part not. I can accept the poor health vision of Vader (it's not my personal vision of the character, but that is a subjective opinion), but at this point why to put Vader in the game..? In game terms, potentially, I can imagine EVERY character seen in the movies as a deck for playing, but what is the meaning to create (and playing) a deck far inferior to the others..? I think you can say in response something like "heh, it's not a Star Wars game without Vader!"; well I agree. Vader is - always in my opinion - at the fulcrum of the SW universe, so I'd expected a worthy incarnation of his persona. His deck it's not up to that, always in my opinion. Is he 'damaged' and 'handicapped'? Ok, I accept it, but let's give to him some strong minors then or some interesting, alternative Special cards, but, please, let's put him at least on the same level of the others characters as in playing terms, as in respect of the mythical Dark Lord. Hasbro failed on this target, in my opinion also if I cannot say it do it voluntarily or not.
One of my opinions - but this one is only speculative, I admit it - is that the ED game was in part 'piloted' in the direction of the new movies/characters for a mere business affair, focusing more on the new movies/characters than not on the old ones (after all, the game came out with the Episode II if I remeber correctly...). But I repeat, that is only speculation.
I know that ED is a 'little game' with many little problems, but this is the forum of ED, so I think it is the right place where to eviscerate all of them.
I hope my arguments were clear in spite of my - always - bad english.
This discussion is absolutely great, thanks to all
