Is there a list out there for the republic that only has 3 corp units?(phase 1s) I know the basic lists have at least 4 or even 6, but is there any good list with only 3 phase 1s for the corps?

thanks

Presumably you’d have to run a tank or BARCs.

This does raise a question for someone who’s been playing GAR: How are phase I only lists surviving an opponent with armor? They don’t have enough critical to present a serious threat, it seems like even AT-RT flamers would be a clear and present danger.

There's only 6 different units in the army.

Which of those do have in what quantities?

I feel like anyone should be able to make a list just bc there aren't that many variations. All the lists look similar bc there's P1, P2, tank,barc, rex and Obiwan

Easy answer is: they aren't.

Unless you have the upgrade pack to bring the RPS-6, or you're using Obi-wan to charge an AT-ST or something (bad), then you're either "ignoring them" as people say on here, or losing your corps (which, in my experience, ignoring armor means I'm *also* losing my corps, as they have freedom to just hammer my troopers without threat).

Most of the clones power comes from fire support and sharing tokens. Both of these effects get better when you have more clones so that in combination with the limited unit pool is why you are seeing so many 6 corps armies right now. Honestly, 3 corps is super limiting until we get arc troopers.

Barc speeders have the only anti-armor in the army and you'll pay a premium for them

You have the RPS-6 trooper from the upgrade pack, and you're way better off taking a few of those instead of BARCs.

Yeah i guess i was thinking ION as anti armor. The rocket launcher is the same on bith and has more impact.

Funny. I think out if all the games I've played, I've only tanken an ion weapon once, and the whole squad was murdered except the unit leader at the end of the first turn- so i never even shot it

Yeah, maybe if they came out with an Ion heavy for troopers that had Cycle, I'd consider using it. But otherwise, I'll just look for Impact. Right now, I feel like the Saber would be enough to handle opposing armor, especially with Armor Piercing Shells for so cheap

I wonder if Echo will have some dedicated anti-armor. He's pretty pricey, so he must be getting some fancy keywords.

sadly i don't have much right now (starter, 1 ph1 expansion and rex) but hoping to either get arcs orr the upgrade pack soon

is it better to get the phase 2 or the phase 1 upgrade expansion?

prices are similar at the store

He’s the more expensive one of the two? If so, I figure it’ll be something like Bistan and Pao; leader and inspire are valued lower than impact and ion.

I would get the P2 just for variety if they're the same cost.

ARCs won't come oit until the summertime at earliest I'm afraid

Or just not worrying about armor that much and win the scenario. It’s not like the top rebel or empire lists are running anything specifically anti armor. I would run one RPS tops.

You’re going to be in for some rough games with only 6 activations... and god forbid you face a list with ion.

Can I ask what your reasoning is for only wanting 3 corps units? If you’re set on only 3 then I would at least wait until arcs are out. If you’re running the tank I would definitely include R2 for a cheap activation and a nice repair. I wouldn’t attempt it before arcs are out.

I just have 3 corps right now and wondering if I can make anything good with it

I think at this point clone wars players are just going to have to accept it’s an uphill battle. It’ll hopefully get better with more releases, and I really think the ARCs and commando droids are a big leap forward.

its not official yet but there may be republic at rt's being added.

4 minis per unit for 500pts(I'm not sure but i saw from somewhere)

I think the simple answer to that (at least right now) is "no."

Right, the point is that armor paired with anti-infantry is in a position to clean their clocks. Knowing that, why wouldn’t you run 1-3 in the support role? It’s not like anyone is running anti-armor to any degree.

Given the limitation of 3 corps units, it's a good list. It's not my competitive Veers/death troopers list. Nothing like acing TTs on turn one before they even move.
