That's why Lobot, Ugnaught, Bistan, Bodhi and Pao show up much more frequently than any of the Jedi, Clones, Resistance, etc. characters.
Not convinced that's the reason. Hoth is a Rebel Territory Battle so we need Rebels and other Light Side characters from the original trilogy the most.
I'm sure there will eventually be something similar to a Geonosis Territory Battle where we need Jedi and Clones more than the Rebels.
Except the Rogue One characters have nothing to do with the Battle of Hoth....they were all dead before that. Phoenix Squad has nothing to do with the Battle of Hoth. What do Lando and Lobot have to do with the Hoth? The mere fact that they all were Rebels at some point is an extremely loose association with the Battle of Hoth. Ugnaught and Coruscant Policeman show up far more often than other non-Rebel characters too....and neither of them are Rebels. It's always been the M.O. of this game. We needed for farm Old Ben and Farmboy Luke to get Commander Luke...characters that hadn't been useful since the early days of the game. We needed to speed farm an entire Phoenix Squad to get Thrawn...and Phoenix Squad was was pretty much met with a collective "meh" upon release. They clearly built this TB with an emphasis towards creating a reason for people to farm little used characters or to spend money to acquire and/or level non-farmable characters and ships.
