Love it!!!
Also, Greedo as April's login toon, and Carrie said the login toon indicates a direction they're going in...
Closest thing to a BH rework hint yet??
Look at the pictures again. Particularly at the top of them where it says the name of the month.
Huge Question nobody at CG has answered and I have asked alot, in several forums. Please, respond and let the community know-
In Territory Wars, why are rewards different for all guilds with different GP? All winners should get the same rewards, just as all losing guilds should get the same. The stronger guilds get better rewards, and the lower guilds put in just as much time. If even possible, we can't catch them, but this makes it even harder. Why don't they winners get the same rewards across the board?
Your response is greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Rewards are determined solely by Active GP of the participants. Active GP refers to the total Guild Galactic Power of the guild at the time that each person has joined the Territory War. Galactic Power is locked at that point to ensure that matchmaking is calculated off a fixed number and can’t be drastically changed over the course of the Territory War.
Q: Does this mean our guild won't face higher reward tier guilds?
A: No. Matchmaking does not consider reward tiers, only your guild's squads for the match making algorithm.
Example: your guild is reward tier 4 and your matchmaking strength calculation is high, you could face a guild who is at reward tier 5 but low matchmaking strength.
It's not common (for the vast majority of the game) but it can and likely will happen from time to time.
Again, this is because Matchmaking strength does not consider Reward Tier at all.
Edit: I didn't read your question right, so I apologize. I'll keep this stuff here to offer some insight on TW rewards.
I can see from the images attached that from now on we will receive 42 shards monthly instead of the actual 30 max. That’s cool.
Overall, i feel satisfied with this changes. Good job!
People certainly have low expectations around here, great login change, I didnt see it as an issue compared to all the other huge items that are upsetting people. This sounds more like a smoke and mirror trick so it can be held up as a big improvement, but what does it really mean...less zeta drops in ship challenges is probably coming server side to account for all the extra zetas going out. That's what needs to improve the most...freeing up the game resources and taking off the server side controls that payout game items

The simple reason is they don’t want mixed GP guilds. So a few high level accounts can do heroic raids (rancor and HAAT) and 40 some newbies can earn the rewards even though they haven’t built up there accounts to do much dmg. Which in turn will keep arena shards more in balance. Of course those who spend can always overcome that but even they will have to bump up there GP to be in higher tier guilds. In the quest to even out arenas I think it’s a good one.
Also some of the top tier guilds put in more time because they will have to put 35 squads per zone.
It is actually really good.
The only thing which would make it even better, more Omega materials.
Usually, they are the wall preventing us to zeta someone.
Nice change and update. Well done. And as an "elder-player" (someone who has played the game a long time) I'm fine with shard shop currency coming from a log-in character I already have at 7*. I love the addition of omegas and zetas to the log in rewards. Very nice work so far.

I wouldn't say they're a wall, it's just that the only times I ever get 4 zetas from challenges is when I have 16 zeta mats and no omegas lol
This update is great. Huge step in the right direction. And I don't mind shard shop currency as a log in. It's kinda nice actually. Liking the changes so far.

Hint - it doesn't say "April"
Greedo confirmed
@CptCheez this^^^
Calender has been dropped, stating Greedo as login toon...
I can see that it says march and all that in Carrie's pics, was disappointed til i saw the calender had dropped...
I believe the answer for that is [HERE].

BUT
There's no ACCEPT button, only DISMISS and my balance does not increase. What was the point of that?

As a suggestion, could we add some identification in the guild chat box anytime officers make announcement to guild members?
Especially considering that daily login rewards were not really a huge issue with most players. It’s a nice bonus fix!
Hmm so a scoundrel or bounty hunter update perhaps?
