jacenat 507 Posted August 8, 2018 Looked at the first misson and the between mission stuff after the first mission earlier today. It has more flavor than the tabletop campaign. But the first mission of the tabletop campaign feels a bit more epic. 2 angelman2 and allenkwest reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Company of Heroes now gives a hero and an ally a Focus at the start of the first round, and gives a Rebel figure a focus at the start of a random round midway through the mission. Glad they finally implemented a hall of fame, I still had my second campaign team saved right at the point before beating the final mission so now I went in there and launched the shuttle and can now free up that save slot.

I've played through the first 2 missions of the Jabba campaign so far. Most egregious thing I've seen so far is a Tusken group at the end of a mission taking place on Ylesia as part of a Black Sun army. Other than that there hasn't been any environment violations. And the random named villain cameos have felt a lot better so far, no Jabba appearing in the middle of a Yavin IV battlefield or Palpatine appearing in an obscure ship hangar. When the little roulette animation happens, I can see it only cycling between 3 or 4 different options, so I'm guessing they put a lot tighter restrictions on which units can come out during each different deployment that happens.

a1bert 4,128 Posted August 9, 2018 I think that if the app needs a creature, you will get a creature. If you don't want to see Wampas at all, exclude RtH. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

keschnell4 14 Posted August 9, 2018 Yeah, excluding a whole expansion is not the solution anyone wants to see. If they can't figure this out with environment tags, they should just add a 're-spin' button for when people get a choice that makes no sense thematically. Sure, people could abuse it if they don't like the unit selected, but this is for a campaign and not a competitive skirmish, so I don't see the big deal in that. 8 JJ48, FrogTrigger, The Cocky Rooster and 5 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DarthJalapeno 32 Posted August 9, 2018 The random generator needs som babysitting. During the first campaign my heroes entered an imperial hangar only to find the following enemies there: 1. Rancor 2. Nexu 3. Tusken Raiders 4. Imperial Officer 1 JJ48 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tvboy 3,531 Posted August 9, 2018 So to be fair, the Wampa only appeared in missions where it was part of Jabba's forces, and Jabba did obviously like to collect dangerous creatures. We all think of the Rancor as being a natural fixture in Jabba's Palace because that's the first place most of us saw one, but the Rancor's actually just as out of its element on Tatooine as the Wampa is. 8 keschnell4, Uninvited Guest, Jarema and 5 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

People could abuse it, but then again, there's already a lot people could abuse about the app if they felt like it. The app doesn't really verify whether you actually defeated an enemy or not before marking him defeated. The app doesn't track die rolls, so there's nothing stopping you from re-rolling until you get a result you like. The app's intent isn't to keep players honest; it's to remove the necessity of an Imperial player. I don't see why there would be any problem if they let players re-shuffle some of the random spawns.

FrogTrigger 1,785 Posted August 18, 2018 3 missions into this campaign and it is pretty fun. The flavor text is well done between missions, feels thematic. The reveal components of the one map we played was awesome as well, I love not knowing what the map is going to look like. I have found it to be a little bit to easy though, maybe that is because we have had allies with us but out of the three missions there was only one where it was a bit of a nail biter, and even then.. We are a very experienced group, we've played through probably 7 or 8 campaigns of all the various core + expansions, as well as a few of us play a lot of Skirmish. So I guess that is probably the problem. Anyone have some good suggestions on how to make it harder on yourself? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Using random heroes instead of choosing the best ones, playing in Hard, not using any medpacs, having all expansions available. That should pretty much cover it. 3 The Cocky Rooster, angelman2 and IanSolo_FFG reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
