Take command of a Rebel strike force in the Star Wars universe!
Action: During an engagement, play this unit from your hand as a participating unit on your side
Does this mean he comes out for free or do you still have to pay for him to come out?

For free. The short version is that the rules state that you deploy characters by paying resources for them in the Deployment Phase.
The rules also mention "The Golden Rule" where card effects override the rules. So, Ackbar's card lets you play him from your hand during an Action window, so whenever the moment suits you, like after you win an Edge battle, for instance, but before your first strike.
Hope that helps and you follow the logic, as I really abbreviated it there

Incorrect. "Play" and "put into play" are entirely different things. With Admiral Ackbar you must play him, and when you play cards you must pay their cost. If he said put into play then he would be free.

yeah that was really simple actually….that makes his card even more powerful than i thought
ok so i guess ill go with the majority thats saying hes not free since thats what my original thought was
I like how they gave some of the characters quotable abilities, like "It's a trap!" and "Han shoots first."
"Truth has power. And if we all gravitate toward similar ideas, maybe we do so because those ideas are true…written deep within us. And when we hear the truth, even if we don't understand it, we feel that truth resonate within us…vibrating with our unconscious wisdom. Perhaps the truth is not learned by us, but rather, the truth is re-called…re-membered…re-cognized…as that which is already inside us." Peter Solomon, The Lost Symbol
Interesting,
Human Droid: After you win an edge battle, put this unit into play from your hand as a participating unit on your side.
Ackbar: During an engagement, play this unit from your hand as a participating unit on your side.
droid is free, ackbar is not.

That is correct.
Awesome found two answers to two of my questions in one post, thanks!

That cost of '3' is easily handled by 'Fleet Command Center' which is part of the Objective Set our freindly Admiral is part of. Hopefully you will have it in play when you need it most :). I really like the whold idea of themed objective sets.
