It would only apply to Luke and Vader at this point, but why not add a Force upgrade to the Force using pilots. It would be expensive (maybe 5+ points), but it would allow a 1-time action for you to place all attack dice or defense dice exactly how you want before you roll, with possible limitations on how many criticals you can choose and probably only usable on a standard attack.

Yes, it's extremely powerful, but you can only use it once, so Luke gets to blow up a TIE for free. Vader is shooting at ships with shields, so it will still probably take two attacks to kill someone.

And in future expansions it is possible to see Obi Wan as a pilot or maybe even a pre-Vader Anakin, or a Count Dukoo (Sp?). I haven't watched any Clone Wars episodes or the Movie, but if they want to keep coming out with new ships, they will have to start pulling at the expanded universe soon, and there are a lot of Jedi to pull from.

Variety in Force abilities could be very interesting, and since most session reports I've seen have the Empire winning, the Rebels could use a little help.
