Assuming FF keeps to the same schedule for release and types of units in their releases as they did with the Rebels/Imperial, I thought I would illustrate what that schedule would look like and what we can expect for CW.

Yeah, I don’t have a life and I reeeeeeeealy want CW to be here now! 😬🥺😳

Clone Wars Release Schedule

Core set release with extra trooper expansions and BARC speeder and Droideka expansions

1 month: Heavy units for each faction. Probably tanks of some kind. There are threads with lots of guesses as to what these units may be, but I’m hoping for my AT-TE.😁

2 months: Mats. Yeah, we were all surprised these came out when they did, but I would guess they won’t have this for the CW release, but you never know, they may come out with CW themed mats.

3 months: 2nd Commander and 2nd corps troop. There’s no telling which faction will be first (CIS or Republic), but it will only be one faction. For the Imperials/Rebels it was Veers and the Snowtroopers first.

4 months: 2nd Commander and 2nd corps troop for the faction that wasn’t in last month’s release. For the Imperial/Rebel release Leia and the Fleet Troopers came out on this month.

5 months: Objective/Deployment/Condition card expansion or “Priority Battlefield Expansion” - these expansions are useful to everyone, but this expansion will probably have a Clone Wars look and feel.

6 months: 3rd Commander or 1st Operative and the 1st Special Forces unit. The rebels got Han Solo as a commander, but the Imperials got Boba Fett as an Operative at this point. The special forces unit was a saboteur/sniper unit (Scout Troopers/Commandos) for both factions, but only one faction got something in this month, in this case it was Han and the Commandos.

7 months: 3rd Commander or 1st Operative and the first Special Forces unit for the faction that didn’t get anything last month. For the Imperials it was Boba and the Scout Troopers.

8 months: 2nd Support unit. Rebels got the 1.4 FD Laser Cannon and Imperials got the E-Web.

9 months: 2nd Special Forces unit and 3rd Commander or 1st Operative. The Imperials got the Imperial Royal Guard as their 2nd Special Forces unit and the Emperor as their 3rd Commander. Only one faction got their two units on this month.

10 months: 2nd Special Forces unit and 3rd Commander or 1st Operative for the faction that didn’t get anything last month. At this point Rebels got Chewie as their 1st Operative and Wookiees as their 2nd Special Forces unit.

11 months: Specialists. Both rebel and imperial factions got a 4 pack of Specialists that could be added as an extra trooper to a corps unit, the unit leader of which could also be used as a generic Commander.

12 months: 4th Commander for both factions and 3rd Special Forces unit. At this point the rebels got Jyn and the Pathfinders.

13 months: 4th Commander for both factions and 3rd Special Forces unit for the faction that didn’t get one last month. The Imperials got Krennic and the Deathtroopers.

14 months: 2nd Heavy Units. Imperials got the Occupier and Rebels got the Landspeeder.

15 months: 2nd Operatives. Since the rebel/imperial units haven’t been announced yet, this is only speculation, but good guess, it will be Sabine and Bossk.

The rest is all in the future and my Crystal Ball is on the fritz.🧙‍♀️

Then again FF could put out totally different types of units each month, and just change things up on a whim. 🙄

Don't forget that every fifth release will be for the GCW factions until clone wars catches up, so the Clone Wars release schedule will be diluted somewhat.

TL, DR: The schedule is the same as the civil war schedule XD

I honestly don't think we will see a mirror of the GCW releases.

I think these two new factions will have also not have the analogous units.

So, I think we will see more Commanders and operatives released for the republic than any other faction. The main reason are there are just too many Jedi that people will want to see. We have Anakin and Ahsoka at the very least.

The nature of the republic, I think, be a slightly less variety of corps units and more Jedi. I think this will encourage more sales of the basic clone corps, as when specific Jedi, like say Plo Kloon, many people who may already have some phase I clones, may buy more to paint like the wolfpack unit.

some may want to paint theirs like Ghost company to go with Obi-Wan. Some will want plain clones. Had I the money, I'd likely buy phase I and II multiples to paint up like this - the named clone battalions with their unique paint schemes along with basic “shinies”.

Beyond the few clone units like ARC troopers or Commandos, multiple purchases of basic corps will be likely I think, but the main money maker will be Jedi commanders and padawan operatives. I also suspect Anakin to have Entourage: Ahsoka as a keyword.

The CIS would probably be closer to the previous releases. They have so many more varieties of trooper units, and vehicles. I do hope that CIS and Republic get more asymmetric releases, unlike the near analogous way that Empire and Rebellion forces released.
