Help question: Court deck vs. LS Hoth

Me and my friend are playing our decks for fun. I am playing a Court deck with capturing bounty hunters. He is playing a hide-under-the-shield Hoth deck.

Is there anyway to go to Hoth and bring captives back to Jabba's Palace to feed to my Rancor?

I know docking bays and Elis Helrot won't work. Please help. Thank you in advance!

 

Get to Marker 4 then shuttle to a ship and then either have that ship go to Tatooine or move to the docking bay. Next turn, either DB transit or shuttle down to Tatooine.

 

You can't DB transit to or from Hoth while the shield is up.

 

Bossk in Hound's Tooth is the best way to invade Hoth under those circumstances, with the deck you are playing, Jabba's Space cruiser might help as well.

 

I meant to DB transit from the ship's docking bay to a Tatooine DB.

 

I have the bounty hunter ships and Jabba's cruiser in my deck, so that is good. If the Tatooine planet is on the table, but there is no Hoth planet, can I still fly the ship from the Hoth surface site to Tatooine?

Also, is there a generic ship docking bay I can put aboard the Hound's Tooth?

Thanks for all the replies so far!

 

No to both.

But it really isn't worth it to invade Hoth. Just sit on Tatooine and play your own game.

 

The only problem with that is that his own game is capturing his opponent's characters.

 

If the Hoth system is not in play, then your best bet is Ellis Helrot to get to the exposed marker site and move in.

However, you may want to beef up your deck for drains and direct damage as opposed to chasing him. Invading Hoth with bounty hunters may be dangerous, you need to find a way to make him come to you.

 

You don't want to invade Hoth, because you can't get out with captives if there's no Hoth system (without captives, you could Elis from the 4th marker). Use ground drains (a couple Tatooine drain +1 sites, Mara's Saber, maybe a Presence of the Force or two), Search And Destroy, and Court damage (0 side) to make him come to you or lose the drain race. There may be some Episode 1 cards that can help you too, but I don't really remember what they would be. If you are playing with the Tatooine system and a few bounty hunter ships, you can also use Battle Order to slow his drains.

 

Thanks for all the suggestions!

I have Mara's saber and Tatooine Occupation in my deck for big drains along with Court's text. I will thrown in a couple of Elis(es) to try and transport away from the 4th marker if I get in trouble. I have a feeling that my friend might be stuborne and not come to Tatooine only to lose by force drains, which means I have no way to go in and get him for my Rancor food

Thanks again for the debate and suggestions here!
