Wave 4 which ship are you most excited to win.

By Cubanboy, in X-Wing

ITT: We make decisions without knowing what half the ships do.

All I know is the Phantom is 4/2/2/2 for 25, I will most likely run two with 4 Ap which gives 16 shots at range 3-2 and 22 at range 1 more then enough to take out a falcon or a transport in a single turn.

Or for epic play you could run 12 Sigmas for 300 points…Transport, what transport?

I want to win all of them. The real battle is getting four or five stores to NOT hold tournaments on the same date, lol. I am sure to also buy them, but victory is sweet.

Just imagine turning up to a tourny to win these not yet released ships, but your tourny list consists purely of these not yet released ships ;)

With the full knowledge of everything anyone change their minds.

I'm still (in this order)...

E-Wing

Phantom

Z-95

Defender

I am at this currently:

Defender—Phantom

Z-95

E-wing

Haven't changed my mind, i wanted the Phantom from the get go.

The TIE Phantom, because it looks like it will require a lot of skill and practice to fly well, and reward a players ability to correctly gauge their maneuver templates ahead of time. Just like Mamma Interceptor used to make.

Honestly I'll be happy to go home with any of the ships.

Wonder any thought now? ;-p

I'm looking at the E-Wing or the Phantom, but anything I get will make me happy. Always good to get another Z-95. The Defender, while decidedly meh in my book comes with great upgrade cards. The E-Wing and the Phantom look amazing.

I would love a Defender. For some reason I just love that ship. Maybe its because its more than a match for any rebel ship one on one.

But I wouldn't mind a Z. I'll need a bunch to have a swarm of missile death.

The more I look at the defender in light of the other ships the more I like it. I am torn between a phantom and a defender.

In order:

Phantom

E-Wing

Defender

Z-95

But I would be happy to win any, as it would mean I finally won a match against someone who wasn't playing for the first time.

In order:

TIE Phantom: for reasons I already said

TIE Defender: can't wait to try Brath, I don't fly rebels

Z-95: has good upgrades, especially Wingman.

E-Wing: guh…. i suppose winning anything would be cool. Good upgrades but honestly this isn't even a "sit on the shelf to look purdy" trophy because it looks stupid and I don't like it.

E-Wing, simply for the droids.

Would those be the droids you're looking for then?

Edit: oh my god almost a three hour gap? How in gods name was I the first to make that reference!?

I'm curious… why are Imperial ships bookending your selection?

Well Simply i'm a mainly rebel player that is SUPER excited for the Phantom, and most likely won't even buy a Defender for a while.

Well, we can't let you get epicly ninja'd all the time, so we cut you some slack here.

E-wing and Phantom are pretty much neck-and-neck for me as far as first choice. I'll be happy with any of the new ones, but after those two I'd want the Defender and Z-95, respectively. Corran Horn and Echo are both going to do mean, mean, things, so having either of them to mess around with would be great. I definitely want Predator though, so the Defender would be nice for that.

I'll be pretty stoked if I can get any of them but would prefer not to get the Z-95 since I'll be ordering several of them anyhow with my preorder. The other ships interest me more at this stage.

Personally I don't know what I would like I think the z-95 is the only one I DON'T want, It feels like an "X-wing Lite" and while its cheapness is appealing and makes it probably the only ship that multiples of will be used at 100pts, I would much rather have either Imperial ship (my primary faction and because they look so **** cool, especially compared to the Wave 4 rebel minis) and then probably the E-wing (I liked the ship ever since I flipped through the Essential guide to vehicles and vessels, the original orange one, and it has Corran, who is one of my favorite EU characters, no Whistler probably edges it down a bit)

I guess TL;DR with a gun to my head to choose

Defender

Phantom

E-wing

Z-95
