X-Wing Superlatives

By DraconPyrothayan, in X-Wing

Every ship is the best at what it does, or that ship shouldn't exist.

What are the things each ship is the best at?

Examples and my own entries:

TIE Bombers are the most survivable ship-class for their cost, are the cheapest bomb-platforms, and set the record for the variety of ordnance the can carry.

X-Wings have the best varieties of Pilot Abilities, and are the most resistant to meta-shifts.

The B-wing is my favorite heavy hitter, especially with the new aces pack. it loves getting up close, and can take a beating.

My take on explaining this:

The B-Wing can be built as the best Knife-Fighter in the game (extended engagements at Range-1 Jousting), and can be built as a very good Sniper as well (Range 3 target-shooting with HLC).

Tie Phantom: Simply the best demonstration of the Power of Choice, when it comes to mobility. (I can be here, or there, or over there, or be echo and double all of those options...)

E-Wings: The best at Hit and Runs
Their maneuverability with their attack makes them devastating when they attack and just do a lap around the field before coming in again

Its common for Corran but I assure you that every one of the E-wings can fly that way and be devastating

E-wings are a tricky bunch. Eathn is an auto include basicly for anything over 100 points, and Corran is a boss at being able to remove ships off the board. However, the base e-wings stats scream for a defensive setup, with either r2-f2+stealth device+jammers+lonewolf, or as an active damage tanker, with r2d2/r5p9 + shield upgrade + advanced sensors/ jammer + ptl (combo'ed with r2& advanded sensors) or some other ept.

Particularly with R2-D2, or his more focused cousin.
