Roger, Roger: Star Wars Destiny

By Barclay Montgomery | December 15th, 2017 | Categories: Star Wars Destiny, Star Wars Tactics

Everyone’s favorite battle droids are ready to deploy into battle in Star Wars Destiny. Come and overwhelm your foes with strength in numbers.

The humble Battle Droid from the Phantom Menace enters the battle in Star Wars Destiny. Alone, this guy not look like much, but they have strength in numbers. At 6 points, this character is the cheapest in Destiny, and you can fit 5 of these guys in one deck! 1 ranged, 1 indirect, 1 indirect, +2 indirect make up an unfocused die, but you can make it work to your advantage in other ways. Each Battle Droid comes with the ability to activate another Battle Droid if its die rolls indirect damage. With 3 sides having indirect, there is a good chance you can activate multiple Battle Droids in a row!

If you are looking for even more Battle Droids, look no further than the Separatist Landing Craft. This 2 cost support will do just that: support your Battle Droids with shields and resources. It also comes with a special ability that allows you to spend 2 resources to add another Battle Droid to your team. To do so though, you must discard the Landing Craft. But this will enable you to potentially get up to 7 Battle Droids on the battlefield. This is crazy!

Strength in Numbers is the perfect vent for a Battle Droid themed deck. This 2 cost card enables you to deal indirect damage to an opponent equal to the number of exhausted characters you have. Since your Battle Droids have the ability to activate en masse, this card will enable you to push out some indirect damage in large chunks.

To keep your Battle Droids “on target” make sure they are Locked and Loaded. This 1 cost Event allows you to spot a Red character to turn up to 2 of your dice to indirect damage. This can be indirect and unfocused, but it’s still damage going through to your opponent.

The Battle Droids are massed produced and ready for battle. Bring the pain with strength in numbers.
