a little extra money this week means I can get 2 ships......Thoughts

By jaekat, in X-Wing

Title says it all, my fleet is in my sig.looking to beef up my Rebs I think, the Z looks fun but I'm not sure the addation of really changes my fleet options that much( same goes for 2 A's, which leave B's and E's, so do I go with the new shiney toys or the old reliable, or is there something else, possible a single X (for Wedge mostly) and something else.

Phantom and an E (the e being for advanced sensors and droids)

If I was getting doing ships now, probably the E-wing and save the rest towards a Rebel Aces boxed set.

Load up on B-Wings, great ships.

A B-Wing and an E-wing seem like the most "value" for this rebel collection. One of the most reliable rebel ships, plus a extremely customizable new toy and a copy of the most popular system upgrade, which will work for both ships.

I always default to the "get what you really want" recommendation though, but if you don't have a major preference then B-wing and E-wing seems like the biggest game-changing combo purchase

E-wings are unusable, that cannon makes it impossible for a pilot to get in :P

B-wings are a sound choice, i don't think you can have too many z-95's keep em cheap though, and you can never have too many x-wings.

What he said. B-Wings are all around solid and quite popular for a reason. E-Wings are a bit pricier (point-wise), but with the same merits, not to mention couple cool new pilots. The upgrades in those two packs compliment each other well, too (mainly the sensors).

X-Wing and A-Wing would be my choices.

I would suggest that you definitely get a X-wing Expansion as it seems you don't already, Garven is one of my go-to X-Wings and he only comes in the X-Wing expansion.

of course this will be your 4th X-Wing but its worth it to get Wedge as well.

Also grab yourself a B-Wing as either of the generic pilots are solid in any Rebel list.

I would suggest a phantom because of their maneuverability and firepower. other than that, perhaps an e wing purely because of corran horn.

E-wing and B-wing is a sold buy if sticking with Rebs

This is a good call. Sensors are worth the cost of the ship alone.

Though due to him not having any Shuttles or B-Wings the advanced sensors is a bit pointless

E-Wings can use Advanced Sensors just fine, plus he'll have a B-Wing if he, you know, buys a B-Wing.

X-Wing and E-Wing. Gets you all droids, Wedge and Garven (Garven being arguably the better pilot value) and starts you off with some of the toys that come in the E-Wing.

2x B-Wings. That way, you could run the Biggs Walks the Dogs build with two X-Wings (from your starter/core set) and two B-Wings.

You don't have an X-Wing expansion, OP? You don't have Wedge?

Buy an X-Wing, and buy an E-Wing for its sweet droids and for Etahn A'baht.

This, xwing and E wing give you great bang for your buck and synergize quite well.

Just to add to the chorus: the X-wing expansion is a good idea in order to get access to Wedge, as well as Garven (who I think is almost criminally underrated); it would also be good to add a B-wing (great generic pilots) or an E-wing (decent generics, great named pilots, and great upgrade options) to your collection. It's hard to go wrong with any two of those three, really.

If you want to play rebels right now, in this meta, get a falcon.

I think he already has a falcon.

I agree with the guys if you do not have them yet and you are working with a budget then take your pick based on what you like among the B, E, and X-wings. You need all three of them.

Lambda as great ships with several great builds. I just bought my 2nd.

My first-world problem: I think I want two more Firesprays and/or Headhunters, but **** that's expensive!
