corvette missions?
The Corvette comes with a linked series of missions called "The Point of No Return"
You can read all about it here:
Looks like it has fixed Imperial squads demanding specific expansions.
I hate that.
That's not likely. More likely it's just suggested ships, with substitutes in case you don't have that many of that type of ship. Amarillo Design Bureau designs all the historical scenarios for their Star Fleet Battles game with substitute ships in case you can't field the ships which took part in those battles, and I think FFG has done the same here. We'll just have to see.
Even if they have done this, it's still the CR-90. The people who buy it are either collectors or people who are committed to this game, and the latter will likely have a ton of ships already anyway.

I'm on the other side of this. For those who play all the time we can just take x points and build a squad. But for infrequent players this is fantastic. I love the idea of suggested and well balanced matches. It could get us to see more ships we might not use. It could help for those who don't play often enough to still play decent good builds (even if they are not the absolutely tourney best).
My wife enjoys playing from time to time but only if I build the squads for her and I occasionally have friends over that don't own the game.
Best of both.
