Favorite Upgrade Type?

By shmitty, in Star Wars: Armada

What is everyone's favorite upgrade type?

I love Support Teams. Between Medical teams, FCTs, Nav Teams, Engine Techs, and Projection Experts you have a really diverse set of abilities. (screw Engineer Teams though)

Titles.

Demolisher, Devastator, Demolisher, Avenger..... DEMOLISHER

Yeah. Gotta go with Titles.

Admonition, Yavaris, Gallant Haven, Demolisher...

Officers!

Such a wide variety of different abilities, making for significantly more aggressive or more defensive ships. Plus you get all the added theme/flavor of the faction specific officers (Lando is a gambler, Leia takes charge of the situation on-the-fly, etc)

*Mumbles*

Ion Cannons....

Ordinance.

Law? :P

Turbolasers for consistency.

Officers for utility.

Officers for diversity, Weapons Team to define what your ship needs help with.

When Moving for Damage, you may reduce speed of litigation by 1 decade if your opponent is a municipality.

Weapons team because of flight controllers, ordinance experts and gunnery team. Theres something for everyone in that slot.

On the opposite side of the sprectrum, ion cannons need serious help. Apart from leading shots and SW-7, its a very poor slot..!

My Leia Redemption plan may have something to say about THAT!

Agreed. I like crit effects from Ion Cannons but right now there isn't really any good ones. MS-1's and OLP require another hard hitting ship to attack afterwards. I would like to see a blue crit that affects movement and or/attacking like in the movies. It seems like everytime a ship in the movies gets hit with Ion stuff it shuts down, why don't we have that in Armada?

Maybe Support Team? I feel like they grant the most change to a model through their use.

Turbolasers are also up there, excellent range of different cards with different applications.

Defensive Slots....defense wins championships

Titles. Every ship has a name and a story. I am really hoping at some point FFG will release additional titles for the ships that have been produced thus far.

Depends on the ship, but for mc80,mc30,transport,raider and glad the first upgrade is always a title and for the other ships it's rarely a title ( apart from maybe the CR90, but the most important upgrade on a cr90 is turbo lasers).

it would be interesting to see what one upgrade people would put on each type of ship......

Intel Officers all day long.

Title

Toss up between support and officers.

Ordnance, destruction rules the galaxy, and no better to do this than with style, explosions and MORE EXPLOSIONS

Ordnance.

The defense upgrades are very thematic. Alas ecm is the only really useful one (curse you xi7)

Commanders :P

Reinforced Blast Doors is a fantastic defensive upgrade!
