I don't buy that Disney would ask for Padmé and Cad Bane to be released BEFORE Anakin and Ahsoka, so in that case I won't let FFG off the hook so easily unless evidence to the contrary is presented to me.
The Luke/Vader release demanded by Disney remains one of the strangest moves in Legion. Some of the first units after CW faction came out were to make Luke even stronger lol. So them giving GAR Padme and CIS two expensive operators before a cheap commander could be the fault of anyone lol......................... Still like the Cad Bane choice tho, but a little too soon lol. Maul I have a problem with still.

Given how slow their releases are I don't think we'll get that. In games like this to keep it fresh you need to keep producing new product and even though they are older factions you can't leave Rebel and Empire players high and dry for a year to catch up the new factions.
The sad part about all of this is that in peak Legion they were doing 8 units a quarter (in theory since I think most were delayed). 6 for CW and 2 for GCW. Doing some hard math that would have allowed GAR/CIS to catch up sometime in late 2021 to where Empire/Rebels were . Which would of meant new new faction(s) for Gencon/Christmas ............................ Don't think that is going to happen now since we are maybe down to 2 units a quarter. Who knows now?!?!?
