Star wars rebellion rebel strategy archive#

I dug this guide off of an old file archive to post here. When I was able to win almost every game, my friend asked me what he was doing wrong and I wrote up a few strategy tips. I would say I USUALLY play it.Back when the game was new, I had the pleasure of playing head-to-head (still a new and clunky technology at the time). It's a good mission, and can aid in getting more units for sure. Once an opponent gets burned there they tend to not make that same mistake. Д¬oruscant isn't left vulnerable too often in my experience.

You don't HAVE to establish a new base, but it's a handy way to move cards to the bottom of the probe deck. Use the move base card as a bluff and to mess with the probe deck. My favorite real example of this was during this play: If your opponent knows you usually build up to slow them down on the way to your base, you're tipping your hand. Use fleet and unit buildup to bluff as well as block. You're not going to win an outright war, but you can buy a turn or two for the win or put enough hurt on an imperial force that's capable of taking down your base (if found) If they oppose your mission they can't move a fleet from that system. Use your missions to strategically stall the empire's advance. Use infiltration to cycle your objective deck to get to the level 2 objectives faster Do you disagree? Do you have any other strategy ideas? You can even queue up base move and just not do the missionДЄnyway, those are some strategy points that I like to play by. That makes a fleet that the Imperials will struggle to beat without concerted effortД«e willing to move your base. Try to build 2 cruisers in the same planet (and in the way of your base). You only have 3 Mon Calamari cruisers available. No better distraction than taking the capital, especially if you have the mission Stay under 8 units at your base so when the Imperials recon with probe droids, they can only draw 1Д¬oruscant is almost always under defended. If the Imperials leave a planet with no air defense, try to fly 1 X-Wing there If you are going to sabotage an Imperial loyal planet, then only do it on build turnsДЎ X-Wing can shut down a whole planet. Sabotage subjugated planets (especially the ones that only build one thing like Bespin) because it is impossible for the Imperial player to remove it while the planet is only subjugated. It generates the best units by far and the Imperials are always at least 2 turns away. Just drain away as much of the imperial player's time as you can with it. You need to delay, so just aim for that goal Keep TIE fighters with the death star at all times Once act 2 objectives start being drawn, play as though the Death Star is a liability, not an asset. The mission that removes loyalty from all rebel systems in a region is so good Get a Star Destroyer facility up on turn 1 if you didn't start with Carellia.Д«asically, turn 1, I use 2 people for fleets, 1 person to Rule by Fear, and 1 to either capture a leader or remove sabotage, depending on how I'm feeling You had to explore anyway, and taking away their units has an added bonus Turn 1, try to take 1-2 of the rebel planets. It generates more troops and makes them harder to sabotageД¬apturing a leader has only mild strategic advantage (unless you have great follow up missions like the find the base location one), but it's a great distraction I was hoping to have a strategy conversation (with the caveat that of course you play based on your opponent and your cards).Дon't get distracted by all of the pretty things and silly missions. Star Wars Rebellion (with the expansion) has become my favorite game since I first played it.
