War has engulfed the galaxy.

B1 Battle Droids Unit Expansion

The Republic’s Clone Troopers may be bred for battle, but even the finest soldiers eventually break under the crushing weight of legions of B1 Battle Droids. Despite possessing little cunning or tactical intelligence, these droids march heedlessly forward to crush any resistance through raw attrition alone. Mindlessly loyal and eminently expendable, the Separatist Alliance has few qualms about sacrificing endless waves of B1 Battle Droids to subdue a planet.

The B1 Battle Droids Unit Expansion gives you the chance to supplement your Separatist Alliance forces with even more battle droids. Nine unpainted and finely-sculpted B1 Battle Droid miniatures identical to those found in the Star Wars: Legion Clone Wars Core Set stand ready to form the backbone of your army, including two miniatures carrying heavy weapons. Joining these miniatures are a unit card and a variety of upgrade cards inviting you to make your own personal refinements to your battle droids.

Clone Wars Core Set Release Date Again Pushed Back

Sources are telling us that the Clone Wars Core Set has been pushed back from its recently announced release date of Oct 4th.

The Oct 4th date was already a delayed date as the Clone Wars Core Set was previously expected to release Mid to Late September. There are many rumors to the reason for these delays but none have been confirmed.

The online gaming store Miniature Market preemptively shipped some Core Sets to customers who preordered.

The Dewback, that were supposed to release with the Shoretrooper expansion but due to a packaging error were also delayed, has yet to receive a confirmed release date.

Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.

Also in the posted he announced that the Upgrade Card Pack will also release on that date.

This is great news as it was recently announced that the Core Set, which originally had a street date of Q3, was being delayed to early Q4. October 4th is only two weeks after the speculated date of September 20th and only 4 days into Q4.
