Nantex-class Starfighter Expansion Pack $19.95
Dancing nimbly on invisible threads, the Nantex-class starfighter utilizes an advanced tractor array to perform impossible maneuvers and guide its turret-mounted laser cannon with exceptional precision. Swarms of these agile fighters are the first line of defense for the key Separatist stronghold of Geonosis.
Within this expansion, you’ll find six pilots ready to fly the beautifully detailed and pre-painted Nantex-class starfighter miniature. Six upgrade cards give these pilots even more control over their ship, while two Quick Build cards offer useful combinations of pilots and upgrades to get you flying as soon as possible.

The ships ability to rotate their mobile arc in addition to using it’s tractor tokens is going to make them extra quick and nimble. Here are a couple of the Nantex’s upgrade cards for even more Tractor Array abilites:
The Nantex is up for pre-order now.
