His confusion is not based on what the post said . The post is fairly clear, short on the point of what ' available in game' actually means.

We can expect that any toon in game at any star count could be required in platoons at any time in p4-p6. Yes this includes marquee toons that are only available in packs (this is my assumption until we are told otherwise), but could also include DS toons which may lower the number of repeat toons. Again a little more explanation on the exact point above but the rest is clear.

You've stated the exact questions that need answering. This is where the confusion exists. Marquee toons? Ds toons? There are now more questions than before the post, which is my point.

There's been a precedent set (intentionally or not) by not having wicket or veterans in platoons. If you add them, ds toons(??), and future marques without specific announcement, It's a problem, imo.

Players can't have a "sense of accomplishment" with moving goalposts on the same tb.

Release a different one if you want to increase the difficulty.

Yes there are still questions but my point was before they issued a response there were more questions and confusion. I just wanted to point out that there is 1 basic point that still need clarification and this response didn't add to the confusion, it merely left one open ended point to figure out.

TBH, until this post and the new ships showing up in platoons yesterday, I think most had it figured out. That platoons would only include characters/ships that were in the game at the original launch of TB, and that certain toons wouldn't show up. That's why we haven't seen the vets + map-wide toons + plus wicket.

Any way you can pass a message up the ladder and ask for a clarification sooner rather than later on what we can expect moving forward?

Agree to disagree then. Before this tb I knew what my guild needed to farm to reach our goal of 6/6 all platoons for the rebel hoth tb.

After this tb but before the post I wondered if the new ships were supposed to be there.

After the post, I (sort of) know the ships are supposed to be there, and now I have absolutely no clue what to expect from future platoons in the rebel hoth tb.

The intention is for us to have a more deliberate experience with platoons. You want us to intentionally fill platoons? Or are we to do it consciously? I intentionally fill platoons already. With intent even. I honestly don't understand what you mean by this. . . .

. . . I'm starting to understand why this last Marquee event gave 1 fewer star.

Ohhhh.

Wait, I think I get it now: they want to deliberately curate a platoon in such a way so that we'll have to deliberately buy packs in order to fill them.
