Join us today as we take a closer look at the new Rebel Alliance and Resistance pilots and upgrades included in the Hotshots and Aces Reinforcement Pack!
Better B-Wings
The first thing we wanted to take a look at was the new improvements to B-Wings. They are getting their own “S-Foil” upgrade similar to the X-Wing (and it’s about time).
These changes should offer the B-Wing some extra “Umph” when flying in your squadrons. And when paired with one of the new B-Wing Pilots, they make a nasty combo:
More Rebel pilots are also on the way as well with this expansion including some familiar faces:
Apparently, Leia is hopping in the Pilot Seat with an initiative of 5 for the Rebels and she’s also got a Force Token, too. So that’s a thing. We also get the arrival of K-2so as a pilot and also as a crew member:
Keep Up The Resistance
As for the Resistance, we get a batch of new pilots, too. Watch out for the A-Wings and Bombers coming soon!
The pilots and more are coming soon – they are slated for a Q1 2020 release date! That’s right around the corner.
Hotshots and Aces Reinforcements Pack $19.95
Enhance your squadron options and launch new pilots with the Hotshots and Aces Reinforcements Pack! With upgrades available to all factions and new pilots for numerous ships in the Rebel, Imperial, Scum, Resistance, and First Order factions, you can now add iconic characters like Leia Organa, Captain Phasma, and K-2SO to your squads.
I guess flying Star Fighters runs in the family…
