A set of basic desert houses might be nice too though.

There have been so many great options available since before Legion was even released for Mos Eisley or generic desert buildings that I would be pretty disappointed if they released more of what we already have an abundance of.

why don't people want these? repair droids are all over the place for tanks and atrts. the comms tech is harder to find in a table but that is because people don't try to make it work. she adds a lot of flexibility to single Commander armies for just a couple points, she gives you more activation flexibility by being able to pass of core commands to other unit types and that is just all with the comms relay, plenty of uses for no more than 4 points. even better on squads like vets or shoretroopers. on a shoretrooper and giving him comms relay he is a 1 point upgrade for a lot of flexibility.

all in all I'm super confused why no one thinks it's a worth while addition to a squad. the more expensive the squad the more worth it they become.

And with the threat of the droid army looming, having unit that specializes in disrupting them could help immensely - even units like the new tanks allow orders to be issued around them. Coms jammers are going to have fair use.

The repair droid is seeing more play now but the point still stands with the coms officer due to only maybe takeing one right now to fill points one is fine were the other 3 models in the box will be taken 2 to 3 in a list we just have not hit the juice coms upgade that makes it so you want more than your first copy at this time.

Most of the Comms upgrades are overpriced, or unnecessary on basic corps units. I've really only used HQ uplink and would never on a corps unit bc you want them cheap and usually can keep their token in your pool where you need it anyway.

Do we know if the droids will be scenario only or both? I thought there was a pic of 3POs card , he was 15pts and had an an ability that was cool and useful but not broken

They are not scenario only.

The problem I see with the bunker is that I can make effective buildings.

I really don’t feel like I can make effective crashed vehicles.

So that means no bunker for me. And it’s yet ANOTHER release for Endor to make the lack of Ewoks ever more jarring.

Exactly! I mean, my bunker looks a lot like this one, but it's made from scraps and doesn't have all the computers, but it is just as playable and has the same features as the 70$ one. (I think I even got the blueprints from this forum)

Plus with clone wars coming soon, shouldn't they focus on terrain for that instead of costly terrain for something that's been out for a while now?

I mean, those who wanted a bunker most likely already have a bunker...

Amen. A crashed gunship, blown up droid tank, or even the Forward Command Center from Ep. II would all make more sense than this.

A crashed big vehicle is the only Clone Wars thing I would ever buy. I could weather it heavily like it’s been laying in a field for decades.
