    My first shot at this objective...basic idea is to get leia out to free han with "someone who loves you", flip and retrieve, then use the combo of (in a best-case scenario) crappy Han with R3 Chewbacca with I've Got a Bad Feeling About This + BLast the Door Kid + Life Debt + wookie guide. The rest is just support cards mainly. It's a pretty simple deck and pretty much focused on using that combo to my advantage. No idea if this'll work but I wasn't trying for anything terribly complicated with this one. Some of my starting effects are available as d-shields but I couldn't think of any better starting effects and at least this way I'm free to pull out a couple extra shields now (like aim high and the podracer shield).

    I've played Profit many times before, it's the first objective I ever owned, and it's still one of my favorites! Haven't played it since Tatooine came out, so I'd like to see how some of the new cards work out.

    Random thoughts on your deck...

    Starting with Jedi Pack Han is okay, Premiere Han is a little better. But you certainly do not need a second JP Han in your deck. Replace it with EPP Han (first choice) or General Solo (second choice - works well with Chewie). Even better, put 2 EPP Han or 1 EPP Han + 1 Gen. Solo in there.

    Starting effects ... Y'know, I've had a lot of luck with Goo Nee Tay in my Profit decks. Works well against Hunt Down decks, which can't really play Alter. At least keep that in your deck as an option.

    Other starting effects to consider ... Seeking An Audience - you already have Artoo, just need to add A Gift for some nice benefits. Insurrection (reg. or combo) - get some docking bays out to help with activation.

    I like Padawan Obi. Especially if I can get Obi's Hut out. Then add Gift Of The Mentor, which works two ways in this deck.

    Get rid of Leia's Back and Luke's Back. Not worth it, in my opinion. Replace them with extra copies of Leia and Luke! EPP Luke works well in this deck. And if you have another Leia Rebel Princess, use it.

    I like playing Captive Pursuit in my Profit decks. I don't have to control the Audience Chamber, just win a battle there.

    Oooh, get rid of the Cantina. You're going to be busy just keeping control of the Audience Chamber, T:JP and maybe one other site, especially with so few characters.

    I actually played a pretty decent "Pod Profit" deck in tournament, using the Profit objective, podracing, and high-destiny (yet still useful) interrupts like Gift Of The Mentor, Run Luke Run, I Know, A Jedi's Resilience, Losing Track, etc. Retrieve 10 force freeing Han, retrieve 10 more from podracing, it's sweet!

    I'll try to work a few of those suggestions into the deck, particularly the insurrection suggestion. I'll think about adding in a more powerful Han Solo, but my initial idea was to work around the ability 2 bonus using him and R3 chewie and blast the door kid, but perhaps it would be wise to have the other kinds as a backup in case the situation calls for it.

    I don't think that the Falcon works very well in Profit decks because Han is a captive. You could use GS1 with General Calrissian, but I think that Lando with Vibro-Ax is a must in Profit decks. This does look like a good start, though.
