If the numbers 1,2,3 and 4 are distributed evenly, like a 4 sided die, then you'd have only a 25% chance that using R2 would hurt you. Not bad odds...

I agree with Phoenix in that I'm going to have to get 2 R2's, one for each side.
I hope that in the future Hasbro remakes R2, but decks him out as a black Death Star Droid. I know it's not a big deal, but in themed games it would be off-putting to have 2 R2's running around. And it would just be cool-arse.

A little custom paint job to take an R2 over to the dark side wouldn't be a bad idea... We play as "good guys" v. "bad guys" in our house...so, this would be a good way for us to have R2 on both sides.

True. I, personally, like to keep my guys as pristine as possible (of course, blasting them with missiles and thwacking them with sabers doesn't count )

Don't forget that with the addition of R2 and Kit Fisto you have the chance for 5 attacks for your next turn.
Kit Fisto's special is "Rally Cry" which gives you an extra turn.
All you have to do is press R2 at the beginning of your turn and that will give you have the possibility of 5 attacks. ;D
Now tell me if your blood is pumping!!

Here's a question. The booklet says you can only have one effect work at a time. Soooooo if I have R2 and the medic droid on my team and the medic droid says I can bring back a defeated figure, does that mean I can't use R2 on this turn as well? ??

It says "you may only use one of the same effect per turn," so you could have both one Medical Droid and one R2-D2 effect happen at the start of your turn. However, you can't have multiple Medical Droids cranking away at the start of each turn so that you could bring back a bunch of figures at once, or multiple R2-D2s letting you stack up tons of attacks per turn.

Thanks for clearing that up. It is kinda funny thinking about having an army with 3 R2 units just so you could get the possibility of 12 attacks for 1 round.
I think its more fair not to let you have more than 1 per turn. I'm still just as excited to get that rascally droid!

R2 does look pretty sweet, but I think my bro, jaws, and I wont use him unless we each had one... So if I got one in my first booster, it could probably fetch a few bucks on eBay...

How sure are we that there is a .25 chance of all 4 outcomes? Perhaps getting only 1 attack in a turn has a 50% chance. Then again, perhaps there is information I simply do not know. -Radar
