http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/starwars/images/0/05/IG101GrievousIG102-ROTS.png/revision/latest?cb=20130212024813

Updated variation of my previous design based upon helpful feedback and suggestions...

Any zetas? Or are these all just omegas?

MagnaGuard has a Zeta. Do you have any suggestions for stuff which should be zeta? I can adapt it

I think the main issue here is that they reinforce the complete lack of Separatist Synergy, and they don't help give the Sep faction a theme.

Think about it, Resistance have Exposes, Jedi have buffs upon buffs upon buffs, Clones have 10,000,000 attacks every battle, Empire has debuffs for your debuffs' debuffs, Separatists have... nothing. Pretty much the only thing that multiple Seps have in common is the inability to be countered, on Dooku and Grievous.

If Grievous is going to be reworked, he should be as the primary rework of a Separatist faction pass and, as such, he should have a theme to his character that the rest of the Seps share.

I'm Working on a full Seperatist faction as stated in the OP and there is a theme but its linked to their Special Abilities. Lots of Anti-Galactic Republic stuff and lots of abilities to keep enemies stripped of buffs. I'll post everything together once I get feedback on the individual designs but I'm making sure that each unit works together cohesively.

These designs are just a first step

This sounds a bit overpowered. We are in agreement that GG needs a definite boost however.

6 abilities is way too OP.

IMO Grievous is a vanity character and should stay that way unless there is a different way of getting him.

Oh, sounds good. If I may make a suggestion, consider something that makes ally attacks not proc enemy abilities. For example, Poggle could give all Seperatist allies a buff for one turn that makes their next ability not activate enemy abilities. So Grievous could then attack Chirrut and he wouldn't counter or gain a heal-over-time, and Kenobi wouldn't taunt.

I like your designs in general, but I think, Grevious should be rather a toon who is built on debuffing, rather than tm reduction.
With Assajj we already have a tm reduction sep, (If they apply her lead to separatists as well...)
My opinion he should have negative bonuses to enemy on his lead (e.g. neg. evasion chance, or neg. crit dmg, and so on)
And a zeta should be sth like If a debuff is resisted or expires on the enemy all seps (or a random one) gain tm.

For 'Defend the general' I would change
'If Grevious or Dookou(he also used ig100s as his bodyguards) is hit there is 50% chance to gain taunt for 1 turn.
I would also move the zeta here instead
'Also regain 20% protection'

Ps.
I also had a Pong Krell kit, but mine would synergize rather with clones.
