The final Clone Wars announcement article:

By Formynder4, in Star Wars: Armada

Also, it's way too early. FFG doesn't post articles until 10:00 am Central Time. As of this comment it is 9:55 am Central Time.

Every now and then I wonder what on earth I did with all my spare time before I had kids, and then a thread like this reminds me. Happy, happy days spent trolling.

Honestly, I expected that by this someone will insert Rick Astley into the fake link. Guess we still have room for improvement!

I wonder if a lack of article is them punishing us for all the leaks we've been spreading everywhere.

You do realise there are two articles to go right? Hardcells and upgrade pack.

Rookie

And new rules, if they really wanted to string it out.

As predicted, the Hardcell Transport has the Fleet Support slot. And 2 Officer slots? I wasn't expecting that.

Not only does this mean that the Separatists won't be limited to one ship with Fleet Support, like the Republic, but they can have more than 2 Fleet Support ships in a standard fleet, because the Hardcell isn't a flotilla.

Save for no rear dice, there things'll make the nebulon jealous.

The Transport version is well worth the points. The Battle refit seems a little expensive but with Engineering 3, Defensive Retrofit, and the Foreman's Labor Title it could be fairly tanky for a small.

Blue/Black flak for 52 points, with a good nav chart, good tokens and a defensive retrofit.


Both separatist and republic seem very flak-heavy which bodes ill for the Imperials in particular.

Yes, which could mean that Reserve Hangar Deck is used more often, or TIE Advanced and TIE Defenders will become more prevalent.

I love to fly TIE Defenders and now that I can't bring as many Aces, Defenders are an easy substitute. Defenders are very difficult to kill with flak.
