What new pilots/crew would you like to see in the game?

By YwingAce, in X-Wing

Jabba the Hutt (scum crew)

Yeah, I could see him all scrunched up in the back of a scum HWK.

The hwk-290 holds up to 75 ton of cargo. No scrunching required.

The problem is that a ton is a measurement of weight, not a measurement of displacement.

Pops, Tiree, Gavin Darklighter and Brannon are my top wants.

On the Empire side I would just like to see more unique Tie/LN pilots. That and a great Vader.

What new pilots would you like to see in the game? I mean like actual people, not just generics etc.I would like to see Ooryl, Whistler, Gate, and Ace Azzameen for starters.

Wrong era, but HK-47.

"When two natural crits are rolled you "accidentally" murder your main pilot.

Oops.

No positives whatsoever, but maybe charge -3 pts.

Loads of options for Imp huge ship crew, none would really make would make sense for normal crew slots:

Emperor Palpatine

Grand Moff Tarkin

Grand Admiral Thrawn

Admiral Ozzel

Admiral Piett

Captain Needa

Captain Pellaeon

For Rebel huge ship crew:

Admiral Ackbar

Mon Mothma

General Madine

For pilots though, what I really would like to see are a couple more Rebel Y-Wing pilots, preferably at least one with an EPT. I like Cody's suggestions above. Or errata Horton to have an EPT (c'mon... he's PS8!!). Couple more TIE Bomber pilots wouldn't go amiss either, perhaps a bomber aces set with a white-striped Gamma Squadron repaint and a Grey Squadron repaint. Pop in a couple of modifications or EPTs that work well with bombs or torpedoes, as well as a second way to get the Y-Wing cards from the scum set and I'd definitely buy x2.

A Wraith Squadron expansion, with Face Loran, Voort saBinring and co. Could use this to add in Wraith Squadron (PS5?) and Rogue Squadron (PS6?) generics (with EPTs?). My only issue is that this gives us 4 X-Wings to purchase to get all the pilots, so should really be the last X-Wing expansion or you end up having to buy more copies of a ship than you can actually field in a 100 point game using the lowest point generics, which doesn't seem right.

Ooh I forgot to mention, for you Y-wing lovers, we could have Falynn Sandskimmer, she was an ace in the Y-wing before transferring to Wraith Squadron. I also would like Gavin, Ackbar, and Pellaeon.

Well what Imp ships have crew slots at all? The lambda transport, the decimator, and the firespray (if some TIEs have them, I don't remember - I rarely play imperial). Of those 3, I think thematically it works perfectly to have any of your list on the Decimator and lambda. It's a little weird having the emperor in the fray, but a lambda carrying the emperor with a few red royal guard interceptors would be bad ass.

I do think it would be pretty weird having putting any officers in the firespray's crew slot though, but part of that feeling may be because I'm in a scum mindset and the firespray doesn't feel too imperial to me any more.

If they do Wraith Squadron then Rebels will have to get a few Tie's to fly :D and maybe get the The Ession Strike, originally named the Night Caller,which was was a modified CR90 corvette. :ph34r: Which would also give the Empire a large ship

Apparently you've never heard of the cubic butt-ton.

Kal Skirata as crew

I want to see Maarek Stele in the game, either as a pilot or as a title card: add Maarek Stele's pilot ability to this card. Then change the Pilot Skill value to 7 (since he's flown every single ship in the world, why not lol).

Apart from that, Thrawn, Ackbar, Voort SaBring, Pellaeon would all be nice.

Basically the Rogues/Wraiths from the X-wing books not in game already, Boba Crew, Mara Jade and Kyp Durron Pilots. I would like Goran Beviin as a Scum and Villany pilot. Kettch of course would be a good one (possibly allowing S&V Squints), Jorj Car'das as a S&V Crew would be nice as well

Ackbar in a B-wing. Or shuttle.

And crew card.

A PS 6 generic X-wing with pilot talent ROGUE SQUADRON

I can imagine Akbar as (huge ship only)At the start of the combat phase you may choose an enemy huge ship. For this turn only all friendly ships attacking that ship gain 1 additional attack die, all other enemy ships gain 1 additional defense die when defending this turn only. Then discard this card at the end of the end phase.

But yeah Ozzel would be a fun card. 2 points huge ship only. After you fail to hit with an attack you may discard this card to perform the same attack again for free. I can imagine all the players making the quote from Empire Strikes Back every time they use him.

wicket, ewok gunner: after making an attack make a second attack at same target with minus 1 to attack, minimum attack 1.
