Description of The Phantom League - Pilot Academy
Fellow Captains, The lessons we've learned on the road from the Phantom League to Pilot Academy :
- Deeper immersion to the story and world - Tactics to the battle system - Strategies for player vs player play - and more of everything
was pretty much the order from overwhelming majority of Captains of the Pahtom League.
Pilot Academy delivers all of that, but in a package that you can use as a whole or cherry pick the parts you like.The new Galactic balance and Surface missions offer two new ways to gain Recognition, providing wider in-game career variations and deeper immersion in the world.
A tactical battle system allow for battles with greatly reduced luck factor. A well implemented tactic allows a weak foe to fight any enemy. This combined with Escape rules that actually work towards making Escape a possible, even if costly, option to all ships creates a unique battle system.
For the bloodthirsty you'll love the new blockading rules, which were included as an optional earlier on and had been incomplete. No more waiting for the ducks to fly to you; being a pirate has never been this good.
Game aids are also included, which some players have deemed helpful.
With Pilot Academy, Phantom League can finally live up to its legacy and become the Elite board game the designers aimed to create some years back. Fly with grace and courage!
