Ish 2,533 Report post Posted November 25 Aren’t there only, like, two-and-half factions? Empire, Rebellion, and Bounty Hunters... I’ll admit, it’s been a while since I last looked at the game, maybe the prequel/sequel stuff counts as different factions. Anyhoo, my general advice for all wargames is to pick the faction you like the most on a personal level. You’re going to be spending your own money on ‘em, putting your time into building/painting ‘em, looking at them while they sit on your bookshelf, and so forth. Don't put that investment into collecting an army you don’t like. That’s why, when I played, I choose the Galactic Empire. Keeping the galaxy peaceful, secure, and spreading the cause of freedom, unlike those monarchy-loving religious zealots in the so-called “Rebellion.” Plus, TIE Fighters look sweet.

Exile 896 Report post Posted November 26 There's actually 7 Factions now: Rebel Imperium Scum Republic CIS (Separatists) Resistance FO I've been out of the competitive meta for a bit, but from what I understand: Reb: Lots of shared actions, beefier ships, less agile Imperium: Cheap to elite fragile, with a bit of beef hidden here and there Scum: LOLWAT? interactions and wacky cool ships Republic: Rebel-ish with Jedi CIS: Lots of droid ships, cheap, but formation flying can be a bear Resistance: Rebel +, with more expensive but fancier ships FO: Imperium +? 1 1 Blustorm and Raindog reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
