DS TB is extremely hard compared to LS TB in contrast to the events during the battle of Hoth in ESB! Factors that hamper progress and prevent guilds from winning more stars are:- Empire faction roster twice as small compared to the Rebel one and lacking more healers/cleansers.- The high requirements of empire characters, critical for battles, for unlocking Imperial Strategic Abilities or destroying Rebel Strategic Abilities.- Facing off against a number of OP rebels with strong healing/cleansing synergies on all Phases, that make the Imperial Strategic Abilities irrelevant.- The insanely powerful Rebel Strafing Run ability compared to the weak Imperial Orbital Bombardment ability (Rebel airspeeders more powerful than Imperial Star Destroyers???)

Yes it’s harder but my guild still ends up getting the same amount stars as they do in LSTB. I have no issues with DSTB. Except those bounty hunter missions. I’m not keen on leveling up mostly horrible toons.

I think the biggest difference is that due to the amount of Empire character, platoons are significantly harder to fill.

We should like DS better. They theoretically learned from some of the mistakes they made in LS (like 4 phases for each battle in DS as opposed to 6 in LS, a special mission for ships, more special missions, etc.)That said, they're both fairly enjoyable - and the rewards are decent.

And more incomplete, underpowered factions/characters lying around and left untouched.

Surely I want to run my tuskens even they're only 3 of them, but seeing the leader ability...others has +xx% defence and my great urooorrruoh have...what, +30 defence? Not to mention 3 of them dont really synergized with each other.

it's difficult, but isn't that the whole point?

Tell that to my Zeta 7*G11 Thrawn, Vader, EP, DT and Veers squad that gets destroyed on Phase 4 by rebels on steroids + all rebel Strategic Abilities active!

Then i m afraid your e doing smth wrong, because i 4 starred that one with EP, Vader, GMT, TFP and Thrawn, with no zetas at all.

and only thrawn was g11

Yes. You did. I admit i had ATAT, but honestly it was a easy win, only TFP went to red. Thrawn still had 50% proct left over.

I find the Platoon requirements difficult, because they tend to require very highly demanded Empire characters such as Shoretrooper which are desirable in both Empire and Imperial Trooper teams. It seems a bit hard sometimes, it's bad enough chasing the dragon of brand new characters which require instant whaling to be able to place in Platoons.
But with that being said, I think the TB works well enough, and as more and more DS characters come out, that'll ease off over time.

Our guild doesn't sweat platoons, we just do what we can and take our 25-27 stars.

But with that said, it's not going to ease off over time because they'll keep releasing new toons at 3* and putting them in the 7* platoons immediately.
