Which one E-WING, A-WING or Y-WING

By XTREM1337, in X-Wing

I just bought

  • 2 Core Set
  • 1 X-Wing Expension
  • 1 Tie Expension
  • 1 Slave
  • 1 Falcon
  • 1 Imperial Aces

I'm looking to add one more ship to my Rebel and I'm wondering which one would be good

  • A-Wing
  • E-Wing
  • Y-Wing
  • Z-95 Headhunter

thanks for you advises

Depends on your style of play my friend, they are all good if flown correctly!

Where did you find a falcon in this didn't market you lucky soon of a gun. I would say all of them but since you said one probably the y-wing. Ion turrets ate important to the meta right now. It's not on your list but a B-wing would also be good instead.

A-wing is my favorite ship, but it's not actually very effective, and the E-wing costs allot of squad points.

I'm exactly in the same spot. if you are trying to maintain a balanced selection for both sides you actually need more Imperial ships, just heads up. If you add a Y wing or B wing to that collection winning with Imperial is going to be really tough.

I don't know, a firespray and 3 ties could be pretty rad.

I'd say either the EWing or the Headhunter! The Ewing if you are looking for another awesome named pilot with fantastic capabilities, Etahn!!

Or the Headhunter if you want a cheap blocker/missile platform!

Ayleron, check out you local Barnes and Noble, ours had three collecting dust on the shelf last week! They actually had some in storage and restocked! LOL!

I forgot to add my Imperial Aces to my list

I love the Y-wing! Ion turrets are sweet!

ok Y-Wing then, thx

There's more to consider than just the ship and its pilots. There's the upgrades as well which could help both sides of your collection. Imperial Aces you added later, that's good to know, now the A-Wing drops in desirability because you have 2 PTL's.

The Y-Wing adds the R2 unit, which turns most of your dial green.

The E-Wing gives you Outmaneuver and Advanced Sensors (but you've no other ships to take advantage of that), there's also 2 astromechs that might be useful. And it has the stress-inducing Flechette Torpedoes.

The Z95 has some interesting EPT's in Decoy and Wingman, has Ion Pulse Missiles which lock any ship and Assault Missiles to splash damage and it's cheap and the pilots are not to be sneezed at.

I'd go for the Z myself.

I will go for E wing to combine it with X wings. You can run Etahn+Biggs+2Rookie pilots. easy build and very nice squad.

Y-WING!

Y-WING!!

thanks for your help !

Buy all the things!!

y-wing... get the b and a with Rebel aces in a month or so.

I love my 2 Y-wings but I must say I haven't flown them alot lately, but they are great ships with the turrets!

But lately I've fallen in love with my E-wings! Corran is awesome and Bath is awesome when teaming up with Ten Numb B-wing!

I totally destroyed my oponent using those 3 kitted out ships when we did a 125 point game, it was brutal! E-wings with engine upgrades are so nimble! I almost felt bad for my oponent when in the second turn (the turn the shooting commences) I boosted then pushed the limit for a barrel roll outside of all his TIE's that were going to focus him down then double tapped his Carnor Jax to death who had a hull and a shield upgrade!

At that point I did start to feel bad because my dice were totaly, erm, doing naughty things to him XD

erm, but yeah, E-wings are awesome!! XD

Buy all the Y-wings.. like 4! no.. don't but do love my Y-wings.. can be super frustrating to play at times though :)

Wait on the A-wing until Rebel Aces comes out.

I'd recommend the Y-wing as it allows you to experience the ion part of the game, plus it is such an iconic ship, either on the playmat or sitting on the bookshelf the M. Falcon, 3 X-wings, and a Y-wing, well, that's core Star Wars Glory Days. B-wing and A-wing are good ships but just never saw much screen time. E and Z didn't see any.

I'd say z95 as it opens up more building options

Airen Cracken with a hull upgrade is flying an underpowered X-Wing at the price of less than a Red. But at PS8 and with a squad leader ability.

For the early buy-in value, I'd have to go with the Y-wing. It gives you more options, since it looks like the rest of your Rebel fleet is X-Wings.

Z-95

Both the Z-95 and the Y-Wing have advantages. In my two most recent games this is what I have seen...

The Y-Wing allows you to get a turret and two torpedoes. I can say with high praise that the Y-wing's Ion Turret has taken out several TIEs in my games.

For the Z-95 you have a cheap fighter that can grab a missile launcher. From my experience, this fighter with the cluster missile upgrade is a nasty surprise to any fighter unlucky enough to get target locked. Current kills is two TIE Fighters and a tricked out Kir Kanos.

Personally? Grab the Y-Wing first. That turret can provide some decent support and can also discourage TIEs from tailing your X-wings.

My vote is for E-Wing, you need to take advantages of the the new upgrades, and get it, Y-Wing is my second choice, because I really liked this ship, and with the right upgrades it will be a great ship, greettings.
