If you’re a fan of Star Wars Armada, you’re in luck, FFG just announced a massive series of expansions, add-ons, and new rules for the Clone War!
They are not messing around with this release! The hobby maniacs at Fantasy Flight Games are giving us more than we asked for with this new set of releases from their GenCon previews over the weekend. They are introducing the Separatists and the Galactic Republic in this expansion with all kinds of new ships and cards for the Clone War.
Both of the starter sets come with everything you need to play a game and more. The upgrade cards make playing easier and add flavor to your games. Let’s take a look at everything they have for us!
Star Wars Armada: Separatist Alliance Starter Kit
The Starter Set is the perfect way to get your Separatist force up and running! If you love Star Wars, see what else is going on with it when it comes to gaming.
The Three main ships and their squadrons are ready to rule the galaxy! Will you bring the Separatists to ruin or help them in their conquest?
You get everything you need to play a game and tons of extras in the starter set! If you go with one of these boxes, you won’t be left wanting.
Set Includes:
It also contains all of the components necessary to learn and play the game, including nine attack dice, 10 command dials, eight-speed dials, 12 objective cards, six obstacle tokens, a range ruler, and a maneuvering tool.
Galactic Republic Starter Kit
Who doesn’t like to play as the good guys? Help the Republic fight off the Separatists with this awesome Fleet Start Kit!
The new ships look really amazing! We can’t wait for the official release of these so we can get them on the tabletop ASAP.
Just like with the other stater set you get everything you need to field this fleet in one box. Just don’t forget to use the force when you’re rolling your dice!
Set Includes:
You’ll find all the components necessary to begin playing within this set, including nine attack dice, 10 command dials, eight-speed dials, 12 objective cards, six obstacle tokens, a range ruler, and a maneuvering tool.
Upgrade Cards
No two ships are the same in Star Wars. You can always pick which ships you want in your fleet, but you can also give them unique upgrades to help them perform better. These cards allow you to further customize your fleet by giving them a multitude of upgrades.
Pick your favorite pilots from the series to captain your ships! Or go big and get Admiral Ackbar to control your entire fleet.
That does it for the new stuff for now, but at the rate they are pumping this out, it may not be long before more! We’re excited about everything we’ve seen so far for the Clone War, how about you?
