How Do I Play Fleet Battles?
Fleet Battles is Star Wars™: Squadrons signature mode: a multi-stage, objective-based tug-of-war where five ace pilots on each side contest to tip the scales in monumental space battles.
How Do I Win in Fleet Battles?
To win the match, destroy the enemy flagship before the enemy team destroys yours.
How To Play Fleet Battles
At the start of the battle, your goal is to engage in dogfights and take down the enemy starfighters. By winning the skirmish, you will gain enough morale to move on to the first assault, where you’ll attack the enemy’s first line of defense: two medium-sized capital ships. When they are destroyed, it will leave the opponent's flagship vulnerable. This is your main objective – destroy the flagship to secure victory.
At any point during this time, the enemy might flip over the morale, giving them the opportunity to attack. When that happens, fly towards your capital ships and defend them. This tug-of-war continues until a winning side has emerged.
There is also an in-game tutorial available for players to get a feel for Fleet Battles.
What is Morale?
Morale goes back and forth between the two factions. Accumulating enough morale will give you a chance to move on the assault and attempt to take down the enemy capital ships. If the enemy reaches that goal first, quickly move to defend your own capital ships.
Actions that give morale to your team include:
- Eliminating enemy players
- Eliminating enemy AI starfighters
- Destroying enemy Corvette or Raider
- Destroying enemy Frigate or Cruiser
