Clone commandos - “Republics Finest”

Also maybe 212th BF teaser or mention

#

Kashyyk and Geonosis Battleforce

I guess it's this

#

but in reality, SWL 101 is spec ops core set. You want spicy takes? That core set is gungans vs geos, and that'll be the only way to get geos for a month or two

brave prawn
#

ooo new core

#

hot

#

I really hope they do spec ops justice. It’s so fun

twilit sinew
#

Hurt Cartel Battleforce in the future battleforces portion!

#

My speculation? We get more than 12 months of preview

#

i.e., we get some "on the horizon" stuff

Crimson Dawn added to Shadow Collective

  1. New Rebels vs Empire core box with everything in hard plastic.
  2. European worlds in 2025
  3. Jyn errata and/or a Rogue One battleforce to make Jyn & Pathfinders great again.
  4. SC Worlds invite player minimum reduced to 12.

I think 212th bf. Bugs and bad batch release dates. New core sets

Jango Fett or bust

Solo: A Star Wars Movie wave… give me Enfys and Cloud Riders as mercs

#

i want cloud riders but I just know those flight stands are gonna give me an aneurysm like the swoop bikes did

I pray for Savage oppress for shadow collective. Could use the command card stuff similar to ventress and dooku, or Chewbacca and Yoda, linking him to Maul

That’d be nice

Part of me wants a pose where they drag a foot to do a sharper turn

I'm hoping for some mandolorian love. Need to honor Paz Viszla.

I don’t think bb are the republics finest

#

I think the republics finest are the commandos. Strongest general units + most loyal as we have seen

#

Finest not meaning the absolute best

tacit briar
#

I don't think they will paint something they haven't even teased yet

spark portal
#

We shall seeeeeeee. Probably right but I for sure don’t see BB as being republics finest

tacit briar
#

Finest would be a play of words as I see it. Nad batch was in gars time kind of a blacksheep

#

But they got the stuff done, and after order 66 they "mostly" withhold their morals

analog basalt
#

give me a bad batch battleforce. 6 models, 800 pts

#

Finally an army I can finish painting

Right which was where I think our interpretation of “finest” differs

To me when a military is calling someone the finest. It’s the most loyal and regimented, controllable, etc. not loose cannons

Clone commandos were made to be more creative and higher trained that normal clones but more loyal than arc troopers. They as a class of soldiers were seen as the best the kaminoans could produce. The perfect soldiers

#

But like I said I could be very wrong haha just my interpretation

#

The Shatterpoint time slot titles go hand in glove with the theme of the expansions being discussed in that time slot. "Republic's Finest" doesn't fit with Bad Batch, nor does "Empire's Elite" match the Inquisitorious.

#

It's probably hard plastic Phase 1s and Stormtroopers

spark portal
#

Empires elite is intriguing

#

Special forces battleforce for empire inbound? They’ll be painting ISF and scouts

analog basalt
#

i think they're painting inqs (alliteration) and 212th/Cody (fine man, that cody)

#

oh wait the quote's "good man, that cody". Nevermind Gungans confirmed

spark portal
#

Lol the only alternative

#

I know people are hyped for the day gungans come. But man will I flip a lid if I don’t see commandos or ARF first😂

tacit briar
#

Ok considering on amgs website it says "special future release" under republics finest....that can't be bad batch....

Rebels - Cal Kestis from Jedi FO (since new content with him this year) or the Rebels crew (new Ahsoka content)

GAR - Gungans and Gungan BF - 2024 is 25th anniversary Phantom Menace

New non-SC mercenary battleforce

too lazy to look up what CIS and Empire had new in 2021ish timeframe

#

Maybe CIS get Jango.

And wild card - maybe they redo some old plastics

analog basalt
#

Chewie plastic kit. Calling it

hoary scroll
#

Empire gets another battleforce (free space)

#

A new leia and Han model I think would be amazing haha

#

Really hoping for Purge Troopers to go with more Fallen Order items

#

My real want is more corp upgrade kits for the second and third corps (more snows/shores heavies) but I 100% think thats not going to happen

analog basalt
#

Errata to strike teams that say equip: sabateur.

#

Empire: new Hard plastic Corps of some sort maybe even two oooo, new Emps if we're huffing hope. As well as Vaders fist battleforce

CIS: CRAB DROID! Aqua Droids, Jango Fett, once again triple faction Emps if we huff hopium haha

GAR: Clone Commandos, Hard plastic Phase Is that triple faction Emps if we huff, possibly a 212th BF or possibly another maybe something of a curve ball like Felucia

Rebels: Cal Kestis? What are those spies? Bothan Spies? I'm not the best with Rebels knowledge

#

So they'd probably be added when they update the old kits someday
