Struggle two's titles "I have a really bad feeling about this, "it could be worse", "it's worse" are from the Trash Compactor scene. This pack coincides with the Some Rescue squad pack revealed recently, AMG can get things wrong, but sometimes they get it really right. Just put a smile on a 70's kid's old man face.
I love that this feels like a combination of the two mission packs we already have, spread out AND central, while not favoring either too much. Bad Batch are gonna go crazy on this layout!
Alex is an awesome guy to roll dice with, and he been with me since the first of the new Mission pack matches, so I am glad he said yes to joining me, and sharing some thoughts on it for this video
When the layout was first revealed, I was worried it would feel like minis would fall into 3 separate lanes of combat, though it seems like you guys think it's pretty fun! How would you rank it next to the other 2 packs?
I think, based on my own playstyle, Sabotage Showdown still kind of wins over this one, but I love the challenge the odds mechanic more than the tactic ability, so it is really close. Shifting Priorities is probably my least favourite, but I think that is a playstyle thing, more than a mechanic thing
Really nice presentation! I cannot understand the distance of the middle right from the right edge as well as the middle point from the one above and below. How do you set them up?
The centre row, off the top of my head as I am away from the cards, is one in the centre, and then on either side, R5/R2. The ones on the side on along the centre line, and R2 in. Makes for a very different mission layout, for sure
I know you said that this opened up some new play for models that aren't always taken but to me this just sounds like it makes models that are already good much better. Republic is always wanted to push people off of points and have gameplay that way and this just seems like it shoves the power right back towards the dark side who has always been let me win points by killing things.
It will definitely help Vader1, but then, what does not, at the moment. We have found a bit more use out of Anakin, at this point, as well as clone commandos with their coordinated fire damage, as it can help a unit out that last bit of damage onto something. We tried not to look at it from the lense of how it helps Vader, but more can we bring some less used units to the table, and get some use out of them
AMG only releasing one mission pack at release unfortunately made every game very samey, so I stopped playing. That and Vader, Jedi Hunter being Galactic republic (sorry, just had to throw that one in there :P ) This mission pack actually makes me interested to get back in the game.
I would recomend it! The game is in a much better place than it was at release, sabotage showdown is leaps and bounds more engaging and balanced than shifting priorities, and the meta is a lot more diverse and varied than it was for the first couple months.

Good call having Alex on the vid. Good co-host.

@@AegisbrandStudios that's fair. Thanks for the insights. Im more worried about the dooku/grievous matchup I see everywhere
I’m real excited for this
Thanks for the exclu
Thanks to AMG for sending it out! More.missions has legitimately made the game more enjoyable, so I was happy to get this in the mail
Boy do I wish I liked this game more. Maybe this will help the game overall, but I'm just sitting on my copy right now.
