This right here. I find commanders will be the most interesting. I also got money on the tactical Droid being their basic one, but their Liea/Veers will be interesting. I hope they won't use the CIS council (of course having a command card "shoot her or something" would be great). My money is on Kalani, but after him I am not sure.

The other factions have their most important people on the ground and the CIS cannot? Of course the council will show up.

Nute Gunray vs Padme commander

Could've had Durge... But for some reason Clone Wars seems to be more radioactive than the Holiday Special these days...

Durge would be great. Give him mediocre command cards, but a high regen value.

I'd rather have Jango Fett along with some jump-pack droids. Be nice to have a hero with some major mobility. Even if he died 20 minutes into the Clone Wars, he still participated and was a big part of the film, lol.

Nice that the B1 upgrades gives you a unit card. Converting the spare heavy weapons from the starter and 1 or 2 B1 expansions should give you enough spare Droids to make a free squad.

Just like the other boxes, you shouldn't need to do any conversion to get an entire new unit with 2 core sets + 1 upgrade pack. FFG did a poo-poo with CIS here

Has that been officially confirmed? Because the name of the only unique Pilot can't be seen in the spread, though it is definitely short enough to be Lok Durd. I also find it unusual that they would specifically refer to him as a commander, and then in a different paragraph discuss a different pilot upgrade.

I wouldnt be surprised if he is the crew for the AAT because ayla secure and plo koon are the crew/pilot upgrades for the republic tank, but I'm sure most people here would refer/think of those two as commanders and not tank pilots/crew

Yeah, I wouldn't be too surprised either. I would just de disappointed with FFG for getting my hopes up for a vehicle-focused commander.

I wouldn't get too worried about that I'm sure Jango Fett will be in the game, people are getting way into symantics about what will be in the game based on the start of the "clone wars" The emperor never fought anyone and he's a commander

I rather see super tactical droids, so I am super bias on the subject. They are used a lot in the TV show as the leaders of the CIS forces, show up in Rebels, and I would think they could come with different options/pirces (droids have been the viewed faction so far). I sort of see Nute Gunray (who I love) and many of the CIS council (who I am indifferent to) as more of a political figure since I do not think he ever command an army or even fired a gun in anything in canon. Sort of like Mon Mothma who never really fought or commanded despite being the leader of the Rebellion. I also think that they may just avoid the problem and make Ventress and Papa Palp into commanders and make bounty hunters into their operatives to avoid the for now. Will be super interesting to see what way they go.

I sort of take the other side for this argument lol, but I understand both sides are just fine. Personally I do not want to see Jango in the CIS faction and would much rather see Cad Bane take that spot. Bane does a lot more for CIS and even works for Papa Palp before TPM. Jango I think would work better in a Scum faction, but I would not be surprised if Jango is first.

You all are assuming there will be a scum faction, also Boba Fett did less with the empire then Jango did with the CIS

Of course there will be a Scum and Mercenary Faction. That's the only reason we're playing the game is to lay the groundwork for the S and M faction.

Oh, sorry I guess I didn't know that. I'll be sure to update my reasons and buy more units that would indicate my desire for those factions

Scum (if it comes) isn't coming for awhile. I predict First Order and Resistance before it to be honest.

Jango is totally gonna be on CIS.

I would be shocked if we do not get a Scum faction or at least neutral units that can cross factions. If the game gets popular they should add more factions to the mix like with X-wing. They joked about Hondo for all factions so maybe? They also like their units to be similar so I am curious to see if Boba, the Senate, At-RTs, and wookies get reused.

Ok, you conviced me that Fett should be for CIS (still think Cad Bane is a better option). As for what he did for the CIS no joke I really have no idea lol. He at least was hired by Dooku to kill Padme, after that everything gets really weird. The plot of AotC is very confusing. Was all part of The Senate's plan? Was Jango suppose to be found out on Kamino and then get tracked to Geonosis?

Also I wonder if FO/Resistance come before or after a Scum faction???

Why Can't CIS get both. I mean Empire has Fett and Bossk. I'm honesly all for every character and every faction possible being in the game so everyone can have fun. Also it would mean the game is popular and lasting long enough for people to get all these options

That is my bad on not saying that most likely we will get both eventually. I just look at the release order for Legion and figure that is what to expect in the next year. Four commanders and three operatives and its more wishful thinking on my part that I could have Cad Bane or Embo sooner rather then later. Same for the CIS council. They would be fun to play and paint, I just would rather get some alien/droid general from the show.

Figure everyone will get in at some point ................except Jar Jar I would be shocked if he ever makes it in. Gungans would be cool tho.

Which Padme? Full-on Queen Regalia, Loyal Retainer, or Ripped Shirt?

Goth queen Padme at the lake house

I also think young Anakin should be released. He could be part of a scenario where you have to keep him from getting killed by battle droids.

I believe they said Gungans are happening in the AMA so Jar Jar actually sounds quite likely, uncanny luck sounds like something for him
