First Order Military characters - who are they?

Alejandrrro

I won a battle with Kylo Ren (unmasked), Kylo Ren, First Order Executioner and Malak. But the feat isn't complete. What's wrong? I could gain 64 points by entering the battle only with Malak, but I gained only 57 points and didn't complete the feat...

It said in announcements, any FO character other than the Kylos

Not everybody reads forums. It must be indicated in the game.

DarjeloSalas

Yeah, they’re not the best at that sometimes.

I think we are about to get a FO Military tag soon, which is why its currently not indicated in the game

People only want to come here after the fact to complain, instead of staying up to date.

I do read forums. However it's also difficult to find the very important information among these 450 words. I wasn't interested in reading the feats on the forum as they are indicated in the game.

Hi Holotable Heroes!
The second Grand Arena Championship is winding down, so I want to take a moment to preview the next notable change for this type of event. With the Championship starting November 7th, there will be a new twist on Grand Arena Championships.
One of the things we wanted to do with these Championships is to apply a theme to them, and this is usually done around the Feats that occur throughout the event. The exhibition championship, the launch championship, and the one that is just finishing up were themed around the Clone Wars with feats that featured the Galactic Republic, Clones, Separatists and General Grievous in various fashions. For this next one we will be focusing on a specific faction: the First Order.
With the theme of the First Order comes some new and interesting feats to challenge you. While many feats are repeating from earlier championships, quite a few are brand new and will ask you to do things to earn those points in new and interesting ways. Feats like “Advantage: First Order” where you need to gain Advantage in Grand Arena 50 times. There’s also a feat for using three First Order military troopers (basically anyone who isn’t Kylo Ren), as well one for using Phasma and First Order Executioner in a squad together. There’s even a feat called “FN-2187” which asks you to pair a First Order Stormtrooper with the traitorous ex-Stormtrooper Finn and win a battle in the Grand Arena.
That’s not all, we’ve even got feats for gaining Fleet Arena victory with both First Order TIE fighters (the normal and the Special Forces variant), as well as winning with Kylo’s TIE Silencer and different feat for winning with his Command Shuttle.
Finally, we’re making a small change to the way the layout works. We’ve added a single ship zone to the Grand Arena maps to spice things up. With more people unlocking the Negotiator, and the Y-wing and Hyena bombers hitting the game, we can finally start to include more ship content into the Grand Arena so that you are not facing the same squadrons over and over. We have further plans along these lines for the next iteration of Grand Arena Championships, so don’t get too used to any particular Grand Arena set up. What we can say is that we have no plans to shift the maps within a single Championship. All four Grand Arenas will use the same maps, so you will have had plenty of opportunities to see what works and what doesn’t.
We look forward to changing up Grand Arena Championships more and more as the feature grows and as your roster unlocks more strategic options. Good luck in your battles!

There are people like me who set their FO squads in defense first then read the feat second and can’t do the feat

There are other people who try to do the feat and doesnt work because of the “excluding the Kylos” trap.

Other people forget to set the 3rd defense in the upper right territory

This GA is Grand Arena of Traps

The feat for using FO Military didn't show up for me until after set-up phase was completed, so no chance to remove them from defensive deployment.

I think you’re mistaken. Mine was visible throughout setup phase.

Davie96

Perhaps. I can't turn back time to check. I do know that there were new feats that showed up after setup phase.

Kylo Ren is not in the FO military so I dont understand why people would think he counts. Just use FO soldiers and you shouldnt have any issues.

Because hes a FO unit in game?

LordDirt

Not part of the military though.

Sure... but since there is no equivalent grouping in game... is it really that hard to understand where the problem may be?

Empire is made up of more than just troopers... but troopers is group in game.

First order is just first order. While you and i may get the difference, its not divided in game so nicely

Actually that was easy, it was bold type even. I scrolled and it popped right out.
