			*'''Anakin Skywalker (Commander):''' Added in RR2. The absolute unit of skub; Anakin boosts salvos, can spend a salvo token to get another attack in... even after a salvo attack. This has survived one round of errata but only tournament testing will tell if he survives with his wording intact.

	* '''Obi-Wan Kenobi:''' ''While a friendly ship is defending, when it spends a readied redirect token, it may reduce the total damage by 1 before it suffers damage.'' So far Republic ships only have one redirect, but they're also getting the Reactive Gunnery defense refit which lets you spend any defense token to get a salvo result.		* '''Obi-Wan Kenobi:''' ''While a friendly ship is defending, when it spends a readied redirect token, it may reduce the total damage by 1 before it suffers damage.''

	*'''Luminara Unduli (Commander):''' When one of your ships or ace squadrons is defending and it spends fewer than two defense tokens ~~(one or none, essentially)~~, it can either refresh one of it's exhausted tokens, or choose another friendly ship at up to distance 5 and refresh one of their tokens instead.

	Thus the Grand Army likes the [[StarCraft\|Protoss]] ''deathball'' style of play, as a big concentrated fist of doom punching its way straight through the enemy. They need to get close to get use out of their black dice and boarding party friendly builds. But with their high squadron values and squadron friendly titles and officers they'd rather be commanding fighters. With the exception of the Consular, GAR ships are particularly bad at maneuvering, so a methodical advance is better than a full speed rush.

Lastly, the GAR favors going wide over going tall. Their base hulls are exceptionally points economical but aside from carrier builds they don't have a lot of upgrade synergies. If the choice is between spending 50 points on bling, or another small or some fighters, they generally like having more friends.

	But they won't have to, because the Republic's squadron game plays a bit more like the rebellion. Republic fighters make the tradeoff of being tough like the rebels with slightly worse anti-squad dice (but good anti-ship dice). Their ace abilities are more like those of the empire, focused around swarming and cooperative boosting. Through various methods republic squadrons can gain snipe, assault, counter, swarm (and make it work against ships), free readied defense tokens, auto-obstruction, and even free anti-ship accuracies. If the republic ''forms voltron'' they can become a dangerous anti-everything blob.		But they won't have to, because the Republic's squadron game plays a bit more like the rebellion.
