## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.6.0 — 2026-08-18

Multifaction squads: pick the new Multifaction option when creating a squad and build with ships from any faction. Rebels flying alongside TIEs, droids escorting clones, whatever your collection allows. Faction-locked upgrades still require a matching ship, and everything else validates as usual.

Squad points at a glance: every squad on your list now shows its points total right under the faction badge, aligned with the ship lineup.

Game data: XWA points updated to 50P2.1.

### 1.5.0 — 2026-08-15

Remote upgrades (the Commando Teams, DRK-1 Probe Droids, Discord Missiles and Sensor Buoys) now show their full deployed profile on the upgrade card: initiative, attack with range band, agility, hull and charges. Visible in the squad builder and mid-game, so the numbers are there when the remote is on the mat.

Cards that remove a slot (Drop-Seat Bay, Havoc, Punishing One) now really remove it. If a saved squad carried a card in a slot these cards remove, it will now show a validation error: that combination was never legal, and the builder now enforces it.

X2PO fixes, verified against the official points sheet: the Alpha-class Star Wing's configurations (Os-1 Arsenal Loadout, Xg-1 Assault Configuration) and four pilots (Warden Squadron Pilot, Ved Foslo, Paige Tico, Saesee Tiin) are available in Standard again. The Gauntlet title now correctly adds its Crew slot.

Anakin Skywalker (Hero of Coruscant) can now equip Malice.

### 1.4.0 — 2026-08-04

My Hangar: log the ship miniatures you own, search your collection, and see owned ships first in the squad builder. Syncs across your devices.
Keep tokens through the End Phase (Kraken, Moldy Crow), recorded in the match log.
Rules Reference lists every bomb and mine card with its detonation effect, and rules text now updates without an app update.
Huge ship Energy tracking with end of round recovery.
Fixes: Maul's Dark Side upgrades, Republic Z-95 weapon slot, New Squad sheet keyboard.

### 1.2.3 — 2026-07-29

Scenario play: pick a scenario, track mission points, and see objectives each round. Condition cards: attach conditions to ships during a game, with search. Ship points and half-points visible during play. Upgrade requirements shown before you equip. X2PO Wild Space format with its 250 point cap. Rules Reference adds obstacle, collision and scenario rules. Firing arc icons in the ship and pilot pickers. Smarter rule set detection on XWS import. Many card data fixes.

### 1.2.2 — 2026-07-22

New features
- Squad builder: duplicate a ship together with its full loadout
- Force and Charge stats on pilot cards, expandable upgrade cards, and a faster upgrade picker
- Epic squads: set your own point cap, reorder ships, and give each ship a marking (A, 2, Red 3) that replaces automatic duplicate numbering in play
- Dice tray: modify results with Focus, Calculate, Force, Reinforce, and Lock

Bug fixes
- Upgrade legality: one copy per ship enforced, crew and gunners now count for name requirements (0-0-0 and BT-1 unlock with Darth Vader as crew), huge-ship upgrades restricted to huge ships
- Cards: upgrade-side ship ability replacements render correctly, restored missing icon tokens in card text
