Big Easy 429 Posted March 27, 2018 Does the Rebel Trooper expansion only come with one copy? Outside of proxy rules does this mean you need to purchase an expansion for every squad you want to run with impact grenades? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NeonWolf 942 Posted March 27, 2018 Correct, the Rebel Trooper Expansion only comes with a single copy of Impact Grenades. As does the Stormtrooper Expansion, Snowtrooper Expansion, and Fleet Trooper Expansion. If you want to run a squad with Impact Grenades you would need to purchase one of these expansion to acquire the card. Personally, I am planning on picking up two Fleet Trooper boxes which should be plenty of Impact Grenades for my purposes. 1 Big Easy reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KrisWall 966 Posted March 28, 2018 You also probably won't actually want to run a copy of Impact Grenades on every unit of Troopers you field. People love to complain, but in most practical situations, owning 2-3 copies of Impact Grenades from, say, a Rebel Troopers expansion and 2x Fleet Troopers expansions will be plenty. I would have preferred that the Stormtroopers/Rebel Troopers expansions had come with two copies of Impact Grenades in the same way that the Bikers (and presumably the AT-RT) came with two copies of Comms Jammer. Such is life. On the upside, we don't need to buy out of faction expansions to get upgrade cards. I can focus on Imperials and entirely ignore the Rebel options. So far, that's better than X-Wing and Armada. 7 Kanawolf, FatherTurin, Big Easy and 4 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LunarSol 1,369 Posted March 29, 2018 The more I play the less excited I am about Impact Grenades and the more I want to take Concussion Grenades instead. That said, I'm happy picking up 2 boxes of Snowtroopers to get likely all the Grenades I want. 2 kaffis and Fmartinez reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ophion 940 Posted March 30, 2018 At 800. Are people finding impact grenades useful at all? I would have thought the at st would still be pretty rare Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've played full games against Imperials four times and faced the ATST each time. I've used the Impacts in one squad, also had an ion, had a laser cannon on an RT, and had my speeder. That relatively diffuse approach to anti-tank has worked well so far. 1 kaffis reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Either way, extra copies of those cards would be important to have outside access to. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s a brand new game with very few units. 2 years from now people who only bought every other trooper expansion will have 6. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dieshe 0 Posted April 4, 2018 You could buy a german Box. It has each card twice. Once in english and once in german language. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
