new article on the clone wars stuff announced at GenCon

Rex looks amazing. Really looking forward to Clones and the republic.

The saber tank can dodge

Phase II troopers also carry z-6s I guess.

I'm glad to see Saruman Count Dooku here. I'm totally going to be using Saruman Count Dooku extensively.

AAT looks promising. I'm going to withhold judgement on it until I can see the upgrades. Looks great though.

I'm less excited about B2s. Those are expensive.

And there was some republic stuff too I guess.

Tabletop Admiral updated

That was a lot.

You pretty much summed up my initial reactions

I actually just caught barrage on the AAT and what it did. I want it a lot more now.

Any word on why the two new tanks have movement tool notches on their base's sides in addition to front and back?

Because of the new keyword 'Hover' that lets them have the option to Strafe rather than just move forward or reverse.

My dream list is Ashoka and Rex leading some Clones, with the Phase II it looks like maybe an 8 activation list which I feel is the bare minimum for a viable army. I’ll still do it but I might not win any games. 😁

Vehicles have always been able to dodge, I believe. The fact that they thought it necessary to include a token might be a clue, though.

Outmaneuver lets your dodge a Crit result it seems

Saruman looks cool - that ability to ignore pierce would limit some frustrations I think.

Oh hey, they're doing a thing I wanted! Vehicles can be commanders now, kind of. It looks like the "Field Commander" keyword is after you play a command card, this unit may be nominated as a commander.

I just went from full republic to cis after i saw the priceing on phase 2 and tank, rex remains the only thing im excited about but the droid stuff seems saucy.

I love that Rex is 90 points. I totally thought he was going to be over 100. Also has anyone noticed Rex’s 3 pip gives 4 troopers an order token?

Can anyone make out Aayla Secura’s card?

It looks like the Saber tank comes with a new slot type.

The Phase 2 clones are soooo expensive, but to start each turn with a surge and have courage 2 is sweet!

Im glad Dooku is expensive cause he is really good. I think Scatter May be broken. Just my opinion, get over it.

The B2s are dam good. 2 health each with armour 1. Why are people complaining about the unit price? You have seen the unit price of the Phase 2 clones, right?

The AAT looks good, but you better not let anyone get behind, Weakpoint 2 is pretty hard core.

Dracula you mean..

Armour 1 and 2 health in the B2’s.. called the armour a while a go, but surprised the unit size is three.

Lack of defense surge, shorter range, and being the most expensive per model corp unit isn't inspiring me. Armor 1 also only really helps against snipers as it's worse light cover.

B2's are 48 points and only range 1-2 with black and white so basically a black then a surprise every now and then lol.

They have more health but they'll take more damage going in cause they're shorter range.

armor 1 will help a little but I don't know if that's enough with a white defense with no surges.

the blast gun is basically a auto include just so you can hurt units in cover.

I think they'll be good against empire and droids but not very well against the republic and alliance.

I guess you guys haven’t played the Rebel faction huh? Par for the course.

Adds Inspire 2 and Field Commander looks like.

Droids looks like a very aggressive swarmlike army that really works on the new surge tokens. Will be fun

Can you tell what Field Commander says? Way too blurry for me. 👵🏻

Ya I think they will be fine against rebels taking them down in cover, maybe not the best unit from what we see now but there is more to be revealed
