Star Wars: Shatterpoint – ‘Clone Force 99’ Unboxing The Bad Batch
These Clones didn’t turn out quite right. But that doesn’t mean they can’t do a thing or two on the tabletop in Star Wars: Shatterpoint!
We’ve already looked a few of the Bad Batch members rules-wise. Today we’ve got the box courtesy of Atomic Mass Games and we’re diving into the contents. Let’s see what Clone Force 99 is all about.
They are so bad. But in that late 80’s way and not in a bad way.
Bad Batch Unboxed
In typical fashion the box comes loaded with what you’d expect. You get all the miniatures as shown plus the cards you need to play the game — in multiple languages no less! I’ll be looking at the English ones for this review.
The minis on sprue are looking good. As expected. Everything is looking clean and crisp. Personally, I’ve been enjoying this particular type of plastic that AMG has been using for both Star Wars and Marvel: Crisis Protocol. It’s easy to work with, holds details really well, and it takes paint well, too. I’m constantly surprised at how much the sculptors can cram in at this slightly larger scale.
You do end up with five models, six if you count Omega who shares a base with Wrecker. But in terms of squad options you’ll get the typical four total. Clone Sergeant Hunter is the Squad Leader while Crosshair along with Wrecker and Omega are Secondary Units. Echo and Tech are Supporting Units.
We’ve seen most of their damage cards already but here’s a look at them again. Both Hunter and the duo of Wrecker and Omega have double-sided combat cards. That makes for a pretty versatile set of Clones you can use in your Shatterpoint games.
If you’re interested in picking Clone Force 99 up, they should be in stores this week as they release officially on April 19. But you can still pre-order them now if you need to.
