The Hello There pack includes: General Obi Wan Kenobi, CC-2224 Clone Commander Cody, and the 212th Clone Troopers
Kenobi provides the typical 3 force points and 8 squad points that seems to be the usual for a primary unit.
This is possibly the strongest squad in the game right now, he makes Clone troopers absolutely fantastic. Kenobi himself is strongly defensive, but also packs quite a punch with good maneuverability and even some healing. Most importantly, he provides a special rule that allows allied units to keep their hunker tokens even when they get engaged and Galactic Republic units can use them to increase defense dice in melee attacks. AND Galactic Republic units can spend hunker tokens after being attacked to get heals and movement. He greatly increases the survivability of any Galactic Republic units, and does so in a very easy way.
Clone Commander Cody: 4 point Secondary character
An absolutely fantastic enchancing character for Clones. He can give the ! condition to enemies standing on objectives just by activating He ignores cover in shooting attacks, and he can make allied clone supporting units reroll failures onshooting attacks, not to mention the standard free maneuver and hunker. His shooting attack isn't bad, but it takes 3 or 4 steps down his tree to get any pushes. It does have a pin early on, and some decent damage though. While he isn't particularly resilient on his own, Kenobi helps with that a bit.
212th Clone Troopers: 4 point Supporting Unit
They have defensive maneuver like most clones, giving them movement and hunker tokens, and steadfast to help keep them from getting pushed off objectives. but their real strength in their coordinated fire that hands out pin tokens... that can be absolutely opressive to the enemy force. get them up on something high, preferably near an objective, and every attack the rest of your Galactic Republic units make, gets a pin added to it.
Who to pair this team up with? Easy, Anyone with clones. You actually have alot of options for that right now, Anakin of course, with Rex and the 501st, but also, someone like Ahsoka could bring Rex and the Clone commandos. Or even Luminara Unduli as well. Luminara's healing with Kenobi's extra defenses, could make for hard to eliminate units, as long as you can dish it out enough with your clones.
Who else to lead this force? Honestly, nobody else can do it better. you need the defenses and the ability to keep the hunker tokens that only Obi Wan brings. Unduli CAN lead this force, but the playstyle would be different, as you'd lose the Hunker token advantages, in order to gain her healing powers.
