CC initial thoughts: Round 1

By Flengin, in Star Wars: Armada

What follows is my initial thoughts on the info released so far. I hope to do a series of these but time will tell.

So first up......

This campaign sheds some additional light on Episode 5.

Darth Vader wasn't just chasing the Millennium Falcon to capture Han, Leia, etc and use them as bait to for Luke. He was chasing it (also) because it was scarred and he was hoping to finish it off.

Didn't work, of course, because Vader hadn't read the CC rule book or even the article (How could he? This all happened a long time ago, before the article came out) to realise that every time he "destroyed" the Millennium Falcon Han would fix it back up in the Management Phase using his 30 free refit points!

Inside a space slug, no less!

Vader did figure it out in the end and decided to capture them in a game of Imperial Assault instead (where there are no refit points. I think....).

Till next time
