Galactic War Report

There were no updates this week, so we’re taking the opportunity to talk about everyone’s favorite scoundrel, Lando Calrissian.  With the current speed meta growing stronger every day, it’s more important than ever to know what makes this scoundrel/rebel toon tick.  Plus, We reflect on the Military Might event and analyze the state of the meta.  (Hint: it’s Palpatine.)

Where there’s a will, there’s a way.  Sean’s computer has died (again) so this week he literally is phoning it in.  We’re joined this week by EA’s Community Manager Jesse Anderson (EA_Jesse) to talk about the myriad events we’ve been seeing as of late.  The meta has been scrambled again and we all try to figure out where it’s headed.

Vacation’s over and it’s time to go back to work! The Empire’s Demise event brought with it a fascinating new character that has already had a big impact on the meta, Emperor Palpatine! We talk about how to get him and how to get the most out of him when you do, plus: FREE CANTINA ENERGY?!

We invite Travis Rolfe, aka VHENZA, onboard to talk about his favorite toon, Aayla Secura as well as what life around level 40 is like. We also cover two follow-ups to last week: Wedge’s role in a Rebel Team and in the upcoming meta, and the changes that have been made to armor since the last update. We’re so sorry, Leia…

You’ve seen his fishy face staring at you in Arena shipments, but you just haven’t pulled the (hair) trigger on farming Ackbar yet. Maybe you’ve been working on your Leia, but can’t figure out how to best synergize with her. We’re here to help you get your Rebels in top shape! Use our guide to figure out which Rebel scum is right for you and you’ll be rebelling in no time!

This week also sees the move of IG-88, Stormtrooper Han, and Gamorrean Guard into the “Scoundrel” category, so we talk about what that means for you.

Also, new this week, we’re looking at Arena trends based on metadata pulled from swgoh.gg and analyzing which characters are really worth your investment.

Thanks for listening!

We have the pleasure of speaking with EA Community Manager Jesse Anderson (EA_Jesse) this week about the current (and future) state(s) of the game, Mods, AAT Tanks, and what it’s like on the other side of the official forums.  Also: Sean records from the hospital this week as he just welcomed his little girl, Moira, into this world on 7/26.  Happy birthday, Moira!

We’re finally back!  Since our last episode, Mods have been released and the game will never be the same.  We tackle the good, the bad, and the ugly with Mods this week and look at our two new characters: Jawa Scavenger and Chief Nebit!

This week, we’re talking with fellow Radio Free Tatooiner Amy Salas, who just started playing Galaxy of heroes because the two of us wouldn’t shut up about it!  We discuss the raid reward exploit and what it means for you, the new and improved Jedi Knight Anakin, and the beatdown that many of us experienced in the new scoundrel event.

After looking for a free-to-play alternative to Rex for a Turn Meter Reduction team, Sean stumbled across Chewie and he wants to talk about that wookiee pretty badly.  Plus, EA moves to end the guild-hopping fiasco that people have been getting pretty heated about lately and we get Kit Fisto-ed.  There has to be a better way to say that…

We’re back!  Since we last talked, there have been a few new developments: Play to Give, Leia in Arena shipments, and Force Champions: Aayla Secura.  We cover all those and more and zero in on the amazing Captain Phasma as our character focus – all on this week’s Galactic War Report from Radio Free Tatooine!
