Guys, after playing with the Rebel Transport, did anybody end up getting a second one? If you did, was it simply for the extra pilot cards? Did anybody regret getting a second? Just trying to determine if a second is worth the purchase. Thanks for your time.

I did not get a second one, all the named pilots are unique, and if I need more rookies or reds, I will buy an X-Wing, not another $60 transport. Same goes for crew and astromech cards. The only thing that you can double up on is the cargo upgrades and the repair droid. In fact, here is a list of the non-unique cards that you can only get in the transport:

Repair droid

EM Emitter

Expanded Cargo Hold (which is GR-75 only)

Frequency Jammer (Jam action is currently only on the transport)

Shield Projector

Slicer Tools

Combat Retrofit (GR-75 only)

I can't see a dire need for multiples of any of them, so I got a Tantive IV. 2 transports is a lot, unless you want to run 2 space whales in an epic game instead of a CR-90 or more fighters.

As FatherTurin said, all of the new X-wing pilots and droids are unique, so that's not a good reason to get a second one.

I have played games with two Transports, and it's actually a lot of fun--but if you don't expect to (a) play a lot of Epic and (b) really enjoy spending 60-80 points (in a 300-point budget) on support ships, I wouldn't recommend spending your $60 on a second one.

None yet but i'll get one when i start rebels probably i do like me some porkins.

Now, I got three transports. Yes it's crazy, but couldn't resist the specs for the last mission from the Hoth campaign...

Good chance I'm the only one?

I have two. I have yet to play with both. When I played an epic game with the transport and Tantive IV, it was the transport that screwed up the Empire plans more. So I can certainly see a second transport being used instead of the Tantive IV for some games.

I have two, but I've yet to play with either (or the CR-90). I bought the second on sale for $45, and sold the X wing stuff for $20, so I only have $25 in it, which is about what I pay for a large ship, so it was a good deal. I plan on hacking one of them up in an attempt to install lighting (though repaints on W4 will happen first, then the CR-90 lighting project second, so it's a ways out). And so in the mean time, I wanted to have one good to play with... Plus, I figure if I'm ever playing the missions, I can borrow one from the guy I'm playing against and run mission 8.

Nope. i bought three as well.

Only bought one

I own 4

One for now. Not ruling out getting a second.

Oh my goodness gracious me yes! I got two the month they came out. I am going to get two more later, after the Wave Five goodness and REB Aces is taken care of. I am going to mess up one of the four GR-75's and make a cool huge EPIC Terrain piece to go with the forthcoming Debris Fields.

I am keeping the other three in mint for the joy of having a complete set that covers all of the named ships as well as the missions available in the Expansion.

I love the Space Whale. I love the new X-Wing and all of the cool cards and other goodies that come is this absolutely wonderful X-Wing EPIC Foundation-Expansion.

I have 3 for the same reasons

NOPE!

I have one and am working out a deal with another player to buy another and then sell him the X-Wing related stuff.

Three here as well...same reason mission eight. But I lost that mission so not sure it was worth it.

I love me my space whale, but I probably will not be getting another.

My local scene is just a lot of 6a100pntDM, and my space whale is a bit much to carry around easily (in backpack with other things).

Also, I just play Imperial a lot more than I do rebels. Still, those flechette torpedoes are really nice.

I only got one. Never actually got to play Epic yet - I've played 7 times since they came out, but my game times are typically either over noon or in the late evening. No chance for Epic play over noon (not enough time), and in the evening, we'd rather try out two of the many, many squadrons we have ready instead of an Epic game.

But, the large ships are there, tempting...

Three for me.

I bought 2 before I realized how much I disliked epic play. I only opened one for the X-Wing and to give epic play a try, and will safe the other for posterity. I also bought 1 Tantive IV (also opened), and will likely buy one of each epic ship that comes with cards that can be used in the regular game. I don't mind owning one of each huge ships in case I ever change my mind re: epic play, and the cards for regular games are usually pretty good (not to mention the ships themselves look pretty cool).

I bought a second in the hopes that one of my buddies will pick one up so we can run all three for the final mission. Giving my buddies the spare x wing pilots and astromechs was probably not the best way to incentivize them to buy it though!

Twelve.

If someone already has several or plans too get another one, I would be glad to split and get the x-wing stuff. I have limited storage space and don't see myself collecting epic ships.

I've got 2. In my mind "epic" is the defining version of the game, and the Transport can be kitted out as a very nice support ship.

Also: 6 flechette torps.

1 Is good enough for me, Epic is not really in flavor (Especially since only the Rebels have the Big Ships). Also allot of the non-unique upgrades that you could use with other ships are now in other packs. For Example the Rebel transport had 2 Flechete Torpedoes but get 2 E-Wing packs and you will also get 2 Flechete Torpedoes.
