Exceptions to Assault battle faction rules

I think for these assault battles challenge tiers a few exceptions should be made due to some of the newer squads having leaders that don't fit the faction for the rest of the team that they normally lead that people have developed. The key examples.
Shaak Ti and General Skywalker generally lead Clone Trooper squads, yet neither can be used in Military Might which usually has a clones or rebels requirement, because they themselves are not clones. That makes Clone Troopers probably unable to complete the challenge tiers of the events because their best leaders are ineligible to run the event. The simplest way to deal with this would be to change the clone trooper requirement to Galactic Republic requirement I suppose that'd also make Padme led jedi and droid teams eligible so maybe just allowing General Skywalker and Shaak Ti herself. For up to mythic tier the current requirements are fine just use Rex but I don't know if Rex leads can do Military Might challenge tiers.

In Ground War, the factions are Jedi, Ewok, and Ugnaught (why Ugnaught?). That basically means Bastila or Jedi Knight Revan teams because the other common Jedi team leader right now, is Padme, but she is ineligible for this event because she is not herself a Jedi, even though it's very common to run Padme with at least 3 Jedi, and a 4th like Barris, Shaak Ti, or Grand Master Yoda is fairly common as well. She's the best Jedi Leader I have, and I have her developed well, but I can't use her (not in any assault battles actually)
  • There are a bunch of posts of players beating that mission with Cody lead clones, and rebels.

    A change like this may make it easier, but it is not necessary and since this latest round of tiers is designed to be very difficult it is unlikely they will make a change to make it easier.
  • well it's more about being able to use teams I have developed instead of having them be excluded. Like I'm developing a general skywalker team right now and know, wow, I won't be able to use him in content like this.

    Everything in this game is designed to push development forward. They are not likely to make changes that would allow players to be new content easier with things they have already developed.

    On your point too, players have been beating this with rebels and some slight adjustments to strategy.
  • I understand what you’re saying, but at the same time it’s kind of fun to use a different leader than you normally would.

    People are beating this challenge tier 2 with GK lead as well, so there are a couple options for this one.
  • yeah, you can do it, but I want to use squads that I'm putting a lot of investment into for things.other than just PVP.
