I threw together what details I found on Wave 6: Scum and Villainy into a video. I'm so excited. How long until Wave 6? Wait, Wave 5 isn't even here yet? Oh. Oh I see.
Let's Talk about X - Wave 6 Scum and Villainy
I enjoyed your quick review. I"m super excited about Scum. It really sounds like it's going to be my type of faction. Very tricksy.
BTW, current Female Pilots:
Rebel:
Jan Ors (HWK)
Ibtisam (B-Wing, may also be our only non-human female)
Nera Dantels (B-Wing)
Imperial:
Howlrunner (TIE Fighter)
Kath Scarlet (Firespray)
Echo (TIE Phantom)
Whisper (TIE Phantom)
Let me know if I'm missing any.
I feel like there's more. Maybe I just assume some of the pilots with call signs that I fly are women. Not sure. Hopefully we'll get some more soon, because it's a shame there's only like 7 to 10 right now.
Edited by VanderbeamOh I forgot about the Rebels! Well those are good reasons to fly rebel, but I can't bring myself to betray the legitimate government. Sorry rebel scum!
I can however be paid to betray my allegiance. Welcome, Scum and Villainy!
Which scum ship are you most looking forward to?

Legitimate government? And your favorite pilots are Firespray pilots? Sure, whatever you need to say to keep getting those delicious contracts. 
I'm not sure. They are all intriguing. I'm thinking either the StarViper or the IG-2000. The StarViper looks like it's going to be an amazing interceptor, but then so does the Aggressor.

LOL well my favourite pilotes are Echo and Whisper, but I want to like Kath and Boba. I honestly don't use my Firespray much. I prefer the shuttle. I'm eager to have more reason to use the Firespray.
I like the M3-A, its a squishy thing like a TIE, but it has the heavy upgrade, which I think is kinda cool. Also looking forward to the other pilot cards for the Firespray, I have 3, only one of which I need for Fett, I have one repainted in my Imperial use colors, and the other is getting a generic scheme.. might get another for a Kath or Krassis scheme.
As I said on your video link on youtube, I was pretty well against the 3rd faction, but I think they did a good job with ships and reusing old ships to give a decent number of ships from the get go.
Also looking forward to what cards will be for the Y wings, and the new fun stuff for them..
I'm personally looking forward to new Boba the most so far. I keep trying to think of ways to turn him into an absolute monster
For a will a was fiddeling with the concept of a third faction for 3 player game. Scum and vilain is exactly what i was looking for. I will enjoy this for shure.

I think the new Boba already is a monster, right out of the box. I hope we see some range 1 relevant crew cards in Scum to synergize with him.
I am so excited to see what Kath has to offer!

IG-2000 and thx 4 welcoming my new most used faction if it fists my play style. (no released faction does)
1.IG-2000 can only do the loop because he doesn't have life support.
2. isnt that story the 1 were ig-88 (all 4) are killed by Boba Fett because IG-88 try to steal Han. (if i'm wrong correct me nicely please)

You're correct. That was the 1st time IG 2000 was mentioned.
I Love the concept of the IG-2000 but I cannot shut up the devil advocate in my head who say that we are being use by FFG tho buy more then 1 of this large ship.
Still great idea, great ship, great concept I want 4.
"Vive les proxis!"

Are Echo and Whisper female? I thought they were unknowns.
Otherwise, I think you got them all.
1.IG-2000 can only do the loop because he doesn't have life support.
Though, on the card for the loop, we see that the StarViper can also do it.

They are women. Strongly recommend searching articles and the endless forum arguments about it. Please do not make yet another of my video posts another argument about women in xwing.

I'm sorry - did I hit a sore spot? For your information, I did search Wookiepedia before posting, because I was genuinely curious. Finding nothing, and yet knowing that some people on here refer to them as "her", I asked an innocent question.
Anyway, I took your "strong recommendation" and did a forum search. No luck. So I fell back onto google, and found one thread:
http://community.fantasyflightgames.com/index.php?/topic/109062-echo-and-whisper-where-from/
That states that:
FFG has set the gender of Echo to male, so if someone wants to refer to him as a her, they'll either sound clueless or just delusional.
So I'm not really sure why you decided to make me sound like I was trolling a well known fact. A more polite and truthful reply might have been: "I like to think of them as women, FFG hasn't said much, and they don't appear in the EU."
I am all for a diverse cast of characters in the X-Wing game.
Edited by Bakura83The official FAQ lists Echo as female. There has been ongoing, aggressive argument against her being a woman.
That it even requires discussion is weird. That you decided to continue derailing a conversation about scum and villainy with this in some awkward effort to argue the point and defend yourself completely solidifies your rank as captain in the forum troll Navy.
Now stop. Is it a sore spot to once again have all conversation be rudely shunted onto a war on women in games? Yes. Yes it is.

Thank you! It's nice to know that. It's just a shame I had to wade through the rude false accusations.

Yes, it's SO WIERD to want to know more than just the name of a fictional character...

If you have such a big chip on your shoulder that you attack random strangers for asking questions, you need serious help.
You are right, I do require help managing this thread.
Reported.
As opposed to before, when you had to buy more than one of a given large ship if you wanted extra Sensor Jammers, Gunners, Advanced Sensors (pre- E-Wing), Stealth Devices or Engine Upgrades,I Love the concept of the IG-2000 but I cannot shut up the devil advocate in my head who say that we are being use by FFG tho buy more then 1 of this large ship.
Still great idea, great ship, great concept I want 4.
"Vive les proxis!"
That's a good point, and I notice people often like to run several of one kind of large ship in a squad. I was watching a YouTube video by Sanctioned the other day and one squad was using two omicron shuttles
Haha, I liked what you said about Boba Fett...it'll be refreshing to get a scapegoat for why "the game sucks."
I feel the opposite than you about Krassis/Kath. Krassis is always lackluster for me, while Kath can get some pretty sweet combos.
I'm interested to know how many new pilots are going to be included, and how many are re-do's with new art/abilities.
It looks like there's 4 Firespray pilots, Boba, Kath, a named 6, and a generic 5. There a new title card as well that goes with the PS 6 pilot, but I forget the names/lore.
The ps 5 pilot probably costs 35-36 points, so we wont be seeing any 3 firespray lists for S&V.
