Wait, Farlander was the lone surviving Y-wing? Why didn't he get a medal?

Did they give medals for surviving? Wedge didn't get one either

Wedge freaking saved Luke's life and survived the Trench Run. He deserved a medal more than Han did.

The Y-Wings at Yavin were BTL-A4s,

In the Battle of Endor Gray Squadron were the S3 (the stock Y-Wing in-game).

Please don't get me started on this.....

S3s have a crew slot....

Right, that's why they can fire their turret out of arc

IIRC one of the Rogue books had mention of Wedge in dress uniform and it was noted the awards for both Death Stars and him being the only guy to survive both.

nope, Hwk is a 2 person ship yet it also contains a crew AND a turret.

Like I said, there are only like 2 other people that agree with me on this subject (actually come to think of it, I seem to be in the minority for almost everything ) so I don't want to argue it, but that reason holds no water

The HWK has room for 2 crew (one of whom would be firing the turret) but also has room for 6 passengers. From what I can see, the "Crew" upgrade in-game really represents these passengers for the most part. Which is why the B-Wing E2 mod (designed to carry passengers) adds a crew.

The hawk can hold more than two people. The turret would be the co-pilot and the crew could be any of the other seats in the place. The hawk is a lot bigger than the scale than the miniatures make it seem. It is about 3 times the size of a y-wing, with room for several crew and tons of cargo.

That makes no sense. The Hawk is "crewed" (as in run) by 2 people. Pilot and Co-Pilot. Passengers aren't crew.

Not designed to carry passengers actually, the 2nd person is a gunner.

Guys seriously turret =/= co-pilot

You are correct that the first version (the B-Wing E) was made for a gunner, but acording to Wookipedia the E2 was a personal military shuttle. That sounds like a passenger to me!

You just need to get away from the thought that in-game crew cards are involved in piloting the ship at all. You really think that Han would let C3PO take the helm of the Falcon? Do you think that Ysanne Isard would stoop so low as to man a sensor array on a Decimator? How about an intel agent? A saboteur? Would they be able to fulfill their roles if they were required to help fly the ship?

Face facts, what we call crew in game are really passengers (or at best non-essential crew) in the Star Wars universe. All essential crew are included in the base ship construction.

By the way, I'm having a splendid time with this nerd fight

I know there are a lot of engine upgrades, but the X-wing guys kept saying their coming in much faster this time, plus we needed to spend some points. You could probably drop them and add more ties. Also the ties all had expert handling ,since in the battle no ordnance was used on them.

Up to you.
