I am seeing 17 total upgrade cards. Is that correct?

Thrawn - Pryce - Goran - Vader - Brunson - Chimera - Sovereign - Strategic Adviser - Grint - Entrapment Formation - Intensify Firepower - Shields to Maximum - 2 7th fleet SD titles - 2 Early Warning System - Hardened Bulkheads

EDIT. Yes you are correct. I thought the expansion said 18 cards before but it says 17 on the product page.

Come join us Reptile of the Heavens! You've done good work spreading the faith of the Five Pointed Saviour in X-Wing.

Now, we must enlighten our Bretheren and Sisterns here in Armada!

Ohh and because FFG listens and watches stuff that goes on in the Armada Fan Verse (Looking at @Crabbok & @Truthiness ) please please make our Gunboat Squads happen!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

You want help with getting Gunboats? I'll help but I'd ask @FTS Gecko to help as well.

Does EWS and 7th Fleet SD make a decent combo? Maybe a pair of Vic's with a Interdictor w/ projection experts?

Only one VSD can take EWS (with Tua) since it's a defensive retrofit. So it works, but they'll just go after the other VSD.

You could of course take two ISDs, but of course if you still want the Interdictor that doesn't leave room for much else.

Just use a GSD or Command Arq for Projection experts.

Honestly, I would probably have gotten this pack anyway, since it's an ISD- but the way they interconnected fluff and gameplay this time around is just astonishing.

We MUST do this!! Hehehe.

Lizard of the Stars! Let's implore the Great Prophet of the Five Winged Angel @FTS Gecko to make this happen! :lol:

It would be so glorious to see squads/flight groups of these on the table!

Player A: "What's that?"

Player B: "Gunboat!"

Player A: "What's this one then?"

Player B: "That's also a Gunboat!"

Player A: "Wait! They're all Gunboats!!"

Although...I think we've gone a bit OT.

Isn't there a rule that only a third of your list can be squadrons?

Haha, there sure is! I think it works out to be about 134 points?

But there's no reason why we can't have 134 points of GUNBOATS!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
