Galactic War Report

Holy update! Not only do we have three new characters to discuss, we’ve got two new game modes to try and wrap our heads around. We talk about the new Dark Side Territory Wars, Imperial Retaliation, Territory Wars, and the big curve ball that CG threw us for TB squads, Bounty Hunters.

We’re joined this week by Nukin from Republic, EA Gamechanger and contributor to the SWGoH Indepth Podcast. We talk about something that can help anyone improve their quality of life: Timesavers. Mainly, it’s about teams that are able to auto different game modes to win you back some valuable time in your daily grind. We take a look at some of the information EA provided concerning Territory Wars and speculate a bit on how guilds may manage participation. Produced and distributed by Radio Free Tatooine.

With Sean still out battling bacteria and viruses, Inner Space style, John takes the controls for a solo outing. The new Kylo Ren and TIE Pilot are the main thrust, as we take a deeper dive into how these two new toons will fit in with their First Order compatriots.

With the constantly growing need for zeta ability mats, we decided to talk about the new tools we’re all going to need to get our zeta farms working at full capacity: The Nightsisters and the Ewoks. We break down what characters are worth investing in, and how to mod them once you settle on your five. Plus, Territory Battles is getting a new toolset for Guild leaders and officers that is certainly going to be a big improvement for a lot of guilds. Produced and distributed by Radio Free Tatooine.

It’s an urban myth as old as the game itself: the Nightsister Rework. The thing is, it’s true. All of it. We’ve got Conduit on (he designs the characters!) to talk about the spooky new Nightsister kits we’ve got: Mother Talzin, Nightsister Spirit, and Nightsister Zombie. Plus, we chat a bit about some of the newly reworked Nightsisters like our girl Asajj. Produced and distributed by Radio Free Tatooine. We love feedback!

With no real updates this week, we’ve finally got some breathing room to talk about something that’s going to be important to prepare for in the not-too-distant future: Dark Side PvE teams. Maybe you beat all of the Dark Side hard nodes and that’s great, but you’re going to need to take a second look at the Dark Side when the new Dark Side Territory Battles launch. We cover the teams we think are worth investing in now, the ones that may be traps, and speculate on other characters that may be wise investments as well.

Grand Admiral Thrawn’s Chimaera is coming to Galaxy of Heroes and we’ve got Chris Mandell, aka C_Mandellorian and Nick (TopHat) on to talk about this amazing new capital ship as well as Phoenix, Nightsisters, and the newly-farmable Millennium Falcon!

John’s out this week as Amy fills in to talk with our good friends from Capital Games, TopHat and Conduit, about everyone’s favorite soccer ball droid, BB-8. What makes him tick? How does he fit in with the Resistance or on a droid squad? And what is up with that 70-turn cooldown!? All this and more (including Amy’s trademarked wookiee impression) on the new Galactic War Report! Produced and distributed by Radio Free Tatooine. We love feedback!

We had other plans for this episode but they came to a screeching (rolling?) halt when we learned about the new BB-8 event! We talk about this amazing little droid and what we’re doing to get ready for his Legendary event. We also look at the changes to Shard Shop (wow!) and Territory Battles. John postulates on some oddball teams (what did you expect?) and we take a look at the current meta report. We love feedback!

This week, we’re talking about the required characters for Territory Battles. We all know we need the Hoth Rebel Bros., but how do you Mod them? What about Phoenix? Rogue One? We cover all that plus introduce a new dominant force in the current meta.

Two Veteran Smugglers showed up this week in Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes and they’ve cause quite a stir. With the 4th Han Solo and 2nd Chewbacca hitting the tables, we thought it’d be a good time to bring developers Daniel (I’m Not Really A Jedi) and Michael (Parking Instructor) on to talk about the process behind making these iconic scoundrels including inspiration, the design process, and why they may not have the tags people were expecting them to have. Plus, as always, we dive into the meta to see just who’s been making moves in the PvP world.

As we recorded this on Territory Battles Eve (the night before Territory Battles start), we can only imagine a beautiful world in which we’ve already been playing Territory Battles and we have all the best tales to tell you about what we did wrong the first couple days. As it stands, that’ll be next week’s show. We talk about Territory Battles preparedness and check our own rosters to see how ready we are for the latest game mode, then we look at just how dominant Commander Luke Skywalker has been in the Arena. (Hint: HE IS THE NEW META.) Plus: We’ve got new Patreon rewards! We discuss them at the top of the show, but suffice to say we took everything good in our old rewards and just worked in more good stuff. Call it a QoL update!

There are a LOT of things to talk about this week! We cover Hermit Yoda’s kit and talk about how he could be used as well as welcome one of our guild’s Territory Battles coordinators, Matt aka Slakey. We then take a look at one of the most dynamic metas we’ve seen in months as Commander Luke continues his climb and some old friends start falling off the leaderboard.

This week, we’re talking mostly about how Commander Luke Skywalker has changed the game for us. He’s had a pretty significant presence in the Arena as well as in raids and Galactic War. We also talk about the kit for the new Hunker Down Han (it’s gonna catch on!) and how he may fit into teams.

We have a lot to talk about this week, so you get a XXL show! We bring in TopHat and Conduit to talk about a range of topics like Commander Luke Skywalker, the new Rebel reworks, and gear level XII.
