Lord Vader and Double Drops
In celebration of the newly announced Galactic Legend Lord Vader, all Fleet and Cantina battles are rewarding double drops on August 28th and August 29th! The third and final set of Lord Vader requirements can be found here.

Assault Battles
Assault Battles are now simmable after achieving 3-stars.

Conquest 7
Conquest 7 is ready to go and Maul is the newest Conquest unlock! Find more information about Maul and how to add him to your roster, check out the Characters and Ships section below. Also, Mods and Mod Slicing materials have been increased, and Carbonite Circuit Boards have been added to Conquest rewards.

"A Distant Echo" Pack Shards
Players who purchased the “A Distant Echo” pack prior to the bug fix addressing pack probabilities should be receiving 10 shards of each Echo for each pack purchased.

Executor Update
The following changes were made to Executor:

• Crew Ability "Vader's Bounty" will stipulate at max rank (level 8) that Tank allies will take 50% reduced damage from out-of-turn attacks.
• Special Ability 1 "Breach of Protocols" will now call all Bounty Hunter allies to assist. From level 1-6 of the ability, Bounty Hunter allies will deal -25% damage when they assist. At level 7 of the ability, the damage penalty will be removed and Bounty Hunter allies will assist at full damage. At max level of the ability (level 8 ) the ability will dispel all Tenacity Up from enemies, Bounty Hunter allies will deal +10% damage; if the enemy is Breached, Bounty Hunter allies will deal +25% damage instead.
