The Star Wars Battlefront Companion app is out now and you can download it for Android and iOS from relevant stores. Whilst it may seem a little pointless as the console game is not out, you can play the Base Command mini-game to earn credits that can spent in the full title.
Base Command is a lightweight card-based game that can be played with or without owning Star Wars Battlefront. Your objective is to defend a Rebel base under siege by the Empire. You’ll fight off the Imperial forces by playing Star Cards featuring the iconic vehicles, weapons, and power-ups fromStar Wars Battlefront.
A mission in Base Command is called a Siege, and not without reason – Imperial forces are advancing on your base, determined to wipe it out. Each game turn in Base Command, the enemy units move closer to your base. By strategically playing your cards you can defeat the invading forces, survive to fight another siege, and collect your Credits payout.
Base Command will contain 50 Sieges of increasing difficulty, each presenting a new challenge by mixing up enemy units and modifiers. Between November 10 and November 17, the first campaign of 8 Sieges will be available. From November 17, all 50 Sieges in Base Command will be live
You can download the iOS version here , the Android one here, or for the non-mobile there is a desktop version which you can access here.

And yet another EA Android app that wont work on my LG G3. Time to pull out the old Sony tablet again to see if this is any good.

That’s a quite nice little game. Most of these companion apps are utter fluff but I like being able to earn some credits towards the real game, it’ll make sitting on the loo even more meaningful.
My phone battery has died so I can’t check, does anyone know how many credits per Siege we earn and how many we got during a round in the beta, roughly?

I’ve earned 1670 or thereabouts for doing the 8 seiges.
I’ll be interested in how the cards transfer as I’m hugely suspicious that these are going to be paid for in real cash money along with extra levels. We’ll see.
