Just wondering, how many of Wave 5 and 6 are you guys planning on picking up when they launch? While I'm pretty certain I'll get one of each and at least two Scyks, I'm wondering which of the others are better to double up on. The IG-2000's built on having multiples and Large Ships are expensive so I'm considering skipping it entirely for the time being, which leaves me looking at the Viper and the Scyk and wondering whether 2, 3 is better than 1, 2. Caution served me well on the Z-95s (only got two, will have 4 come MW)

I'm planning on having all of everything-twice:-)
In all seriousness though I usually try to (eventually) aim for 6 of each small ship and 2 of each large one (OCD? Me? Outrageous!)
On launch, probably only one each of Wave 5, though I kind of count Rebel Aces as Wave 5 so that ends up being three ships.
Probably two of each for Wave 6, though it really depends on what comes up in spoilers before then.
I'm getting one Decimator, one Outrider, and one copy of Rebel Aces. I'm also planning on one Most Wanted (although I'm temped to get two), three Scyks, two StarVipers, and either zero or two Aggressors.
2x each Large ship, 6x each Small ship. Probably 2 conversion kits (I do like the repaint, plus I need some dials for the S&V faction)
As for the Rebel Aces... I guess 3 packs?
2 Rebel Aces
2 YT-2400
1 Decimator
2 Most Wanted ... For the minis
4 Scyk
2 StarViper
2 IG-2000
(Quiet, don't tell my wife)
1 VT-49
1Outrider (maybe none)
1-2 IG-2000s
1-2 Most Wanted (I'll have to see how I like the Y,Z, & HWK)
2 Star Vipers
2-3 Scyks
My next purchase will be 1 of each from Wave 5, 1 Rebel Aces (have 1 A-wing and 3 B-wings already) and 1 Firespray (have been looking to pick up a second, and with Scum I have more of a reason!)
Then for Wave 5, will probably do what I normally do with each wave, probably buy 1 of each, maybe 2 M3s. May look into a second IG2000 and another M3 or two, but I think that will have me covered. I have 3 Z95s and 2 Y-wings already, so until there is a FAQ entry that disallows the use of my old dials, I probably will not get more than 1 Most Wanted pack. I doubt they will disallow it, as they allow you to modify the faces of your dials to individualize them for purposes if identification. You never know, but I expect them to be allowed.
2x Most wanted
1x Star Viper
1x Scyk
1x Agressor
Afterwards i will think what else i will buy, but i am not going to get any wave 5 ship, and i am still thinking if i will get rebel aces. I am just scum. But the right kind of scum.
Edited by DreadStarThe plan:
1 of each of wave 5
1 'most wanted'
2 IG-2000
2 StarViper
3 Scyks
Subject to change when spoilers are revealed
1 of each. (my wallet wouldn't exist if I did anymore
:unsure:)
2 Decimators
1 YT-2400
1 Rebel Aces
2 Most Wanted
2 M3-A's
2 StarVipers
2 Aggressors
(Maybe more aggressors and vipers depends on the upgrades and pilots.)
1 of all of them.
2 Rebel Aces
2 YT-2400
2 Decimator
4 Star Viper
4 M3-A
2 IG-2000
Most Wanted......... I'm not sure about this one. Normally I'd buy 2, but I have plenty of z-95's..... could use the extra Y-Wing though
My plan was going to be 2 Aces...but do we have a solid count on upgrades that come with it yet? It sounds like three chaardan refits, is it the same count for stuff like the B-wing mod? That could sway my purchasing plans but otherwise
2 Aces
2 Star Vipers
1 of everything else.
I've already got 2 Y-wings, 2 Headhunters, 1 HWK and 2 each of A-wing and B-wing, so I don't need any more of any of them once those purchases are made
I'm still one of those fools who desires being able to field the maximum number of ships one can fit with 100 points. Yes, that means I still want to buy a 6th HWK. ... I have a problem.
I clicked on this thread for mathwing. I am disappoint.
1 Decimator
1 IG-2000
1-2 Most Wanted
1-2 StarViper
2-3 M3-A Scyk
1st 1x each Wave V and Rebel Aces
2nd 2x Scum pack
3nd 2x Starvipers
4th 3x Scyk
then 1x IG-2000 if it has good cards
Probably will be a long time before I get all that though.
Oh what a frightening thought.
1 Rebel Aces
1 YT-2400
1 Most Wanted
1 StarVIper
At least one Scyk
stares at IG-2000... I... I... er...
Time to put some more GW stuff on eBay, methinks.
2x YT2400, Decimator, Most Wanted, and IG2000.
3x Starviper
4x Scyk
Enough to run most lists at 100 pts.
5 rebel aces
2 VT-49
3 YT-2400
1 Most Wanted
1 StarViper
2 Scyk's
1 or 2 Agressors
Wave 6 numbers aren't final...
Assuming the money:
2 YT-2400 1 Decimator to start. Probably with a medium transport.
3 Most Wanted, 4 Scyk, 2 Starvipers, 3 IG-2000, 1 HWK, 2 Firespray. That should bring them up to about the same rough fleet size as my Rebels and Imps.
1 YT-2400
1 Decimator
1 Rebel Aces
as for wave 6 and specifically the Most wanted set, I feel a little annoyed that they didn't put additional Pilot cards and chits for the generic z95 Scum Pilots.
I have 6 Rebel z95s, and I really would prefer not to buy any more than 2 more z95 models but I guess I will have to if I want to run more than 2 Scum z95s, and end up with superfluous Y-Wings in the process. I appreciate the additional Firespray & HWK pilot cards & chits but I would have paid a bit more to be able to reuse my rebel Z95s as well, even just a couple more.
will reserve ordering numbers on the 3 new ships till we get more info on ship costs and pilot abilities.
2 Rebel Aces already on preorder.
1 ea of VT-49 and YT-2400.
Then we'll see. I want to see more spoiled of the scum and villainy before deciding on final purchases.
Where am I going to keep all these plastic toys?
