Capital Games2025-06-11CG_Meatheadrelic gl raid dev-post

Order 66 Raid goes live 6/25 at 11am, runnable immediately if not already in a raid and tix are available. Current expectation is roughly a year before the next raid, and attempts should be much quicker than Battle for Naboo or Speederbike Pursuit.

Allowed Characters

Pirates will be announced in an upcoming Pirate Era post; the first Pirate marquee is a leader, and by the end of the era there will be two powerful raid teams (one led by the next Conquest unit, one by the next Galactic Legend).

All Pirates
Bad Batch: Omega (Fugitive), Batcher, Hunter (Mercenary), Wrecker (Mercenary), Crosshair (Scarred)
Dark Side Clone Troopers: CC-1119 "Appo", CX-2, Disguised Clone Trooper, RC-1262 "Scorch"
Empire: Grand Moff Tarkin
Jedi Vanguard: Jedi Master Mace Windu, Jocasta Nu, Depa Bilaba, Jedi Temple Guard, Aayla Secura, Barriss Offee, Eeth Koth, Ima-Gun Di, Jedi Consular, Jedi Knight Guardian, Kelleran Beq, Kit Fisto, Luminara Unduli, Plo Koon, Qui-Gon Jinn, Shaak Ti

Overall Strategy

Main goal: give Jedi a chance to escape Lord Vader as he storms the Jedi Temple. Vader is defended by Fox, Appo, Disguised Clone Troopers, and Knightfall Troopers. While all Disguised and Knightfall Troopers are active, Vader cannot be targeted. Once one falls, attack Vader 3 times to break his concentration so the targeted Jedi escapes. Fox and Appo revive the Disguised and Knightfall Troopers and grant bonuses when defeated. If you cannot save Jedi, you can earn points by surviving Enraged Lord Vader after the fate of all Jedi is decided.

Faction Bonuses

Pirates: Whenever a Pirate gains a stack of Profit, they dispel all debuffs on themselves and their next ability deals bonus True damage equal to 10% of their Max Health to target enemy. (Subject to change as Pirates are added.)
Jedi Vanguard: +50% Max Health and Protection. Take reduced damage from Percent Health damage effects. Whenever any turn ends, if a Jedi Vanguard has 2 or more buffs, they gain 10% Offense (stacking) for the rest of the encounter.
Dark Side Clone Troopers: Whenever an enemy is inflicted with Order 66, all Dark Side Clone Troopers and Grand Moff Tarkin gain 25% Turn Meter and 25% Offense for 1 turn.

Word from the Raid Designer

The raid was designed to evoke the desperation and disorientation of Order 66, played from the perspective of arriving once destruction has begun and trying to triage and survive against the indestructible force of Lord Vader.
