Speculation on the Future of Fleets - Let's Discuss!
Hey everyone,
As we all know, there are currently 11 Capital Ships in the game. Although not all of them see regular use, I believe CG's intention is for each of these ships to eventually command a full fleet of 5 ships. If we look at the current situation, this only isn't the case for the Endurance, and there are only 9 Empire ships for 2 Capital Ships.
Given this, I predict that we will see a new Clone-themed ship soon, likely one that is closely tied to Clone synergies. This could help round out a fleet for the Endurance without making it too easy to pair with the Negotiator (although I’m sure people will find a way to make that happen anyway, lol). Additionally, I think we’ll get at least one more Empire ship to allow for two fully fleshed-out Empire fleets.
Looking at ships that don’t yet have a solid place, Lando’s Millennium Falcon and the Ebon Hawk stand out. The only thing these two ships have in common is that they are both Light Side Cargo Ships. This leads me to speculate that we might see a new Capital Ship focused on Cargo Ships, specifically non-Rebel Cargo Ships, to avoid stepping on the Profundity’s toes. If this is the case, we’d likely need three more Cargo Ships before the next Capital Ship is released (similar to how several ships were released before the Leviathan).
In this scenario, we would eventually have 12 fleets, each consisting of 5 ships.
What do you all think? What are your predictions or hopes for the next Capital Ship or fleet composition? I’d love to hear your ideas and discuss where the future of fleets in SWGOH might be headed.
Looking forward to your thoughts!
