Star Wars: Armada is getting a new expansion and it appears to be a game changer! What does this mean for the future of the game?
July 25th Update: FFG Dropped all the Details for this product HERE
Some rumors have surfaced about Star Wars: Armada getting a new expansion called The Corellian Conflict. This information was revealed at Star Wars Celebration Europe last weekend and appears to be a campaign expansion. No official information has been posted as of yet so all we have to go off are the FFG forum posts of those who were eye witnesses from the Star Wars Celebration and a couple of photos that are circulating the internet.
It is rumored that The Corellian Conflict will be a co-operative campaign that consists of 2-6 players pitting Rebels against the Imperium with 1-3 players per team.
It is also speculated that new squadrons will be added as well as the appearance of one Ciena Ree.
BOLS reports:
A new picture doing the rounds claims to be the back of the box taken at San Diego Comic Con.
Looks like this confirms 12 new objectives and a whopping 16 new squadron cards. The new objectives promise to double the current number of missions and judging by the green colored one I can see will also introduce a new objective type into the game. Does this mean every player will have to own this set to make a list for competitive play or is the green mission only for the Campaign? In addition Station cards sounds interesting, but it doesn’t look like any new titles or other upgrades which is a little sad.
So it seems that a more massive scale battle may be in the future for Star Wars Armada with this new expansion. Being that this is all just a rumor as of now we can only speculate what the future of Armada will bring. For more information head over to the Fantasy Flight Games forums. Make sure to stay tuned for more updates to come.
