Did we really need another source for Lone Wolf?

By PhantomFO, in X-Wing

It's the one part of Wave 7 that I'm actually disappointed by. Granted, the original card was exclusive to a $30 expansion, but it's a unique. For people who already have a YT-2400, it has almost zero value.

We're getting loads of new stuff in the other expansions, but EPT options are something I always want more of. I wish we'd gotten something like Intimidation instead, as that one can at least be used in multiples.

I'm guessing its because there were enough Imperial players that complained loud enough that they thought they should print it in another faction pack, though it being in a scum pack isnt going to change those Imperial players minds haha.

Also am I correct in saying that this is the first time a "Unique upgrade" has been reprinted?

a faint glimmer of hope has sparked deep inside that C-3PO might get reprinted in a non-epic Ship

For me and I am sure others it's great. I don't have it currently and I only started actively playing this game because of Scum faction. The more options the better. Not everyone has or will be buying every single ship.

Did we really need another stupid thread complaining for another stupid reason?

Do you not notice that he also has Engine Upgrade?

I'm just glad that there's another Predator source now, and the TIE-only upgrade could be super useful, depending on what it does.

One benefit to another Lone Wolf source is that, if you are the sole ship/card source for your group, you don't have to stack up YT-2400s to let more than one player run the ET.

I'm not sure I understand why getting more stuff is a bad thing.

And Stay on Target.

I'd just rather get a card that can be used in multiples.

I play games where I provide for both sides, so this is a godsend.

Now for more stay on target

I'm not sure I understand why getting more stuff is a bad thing.

It takes up a spot in the production. Getting more of a card you can only use one of instead of a different card that you could actually use is bad. (To some people)

How often do stores run out of stock of the ships with upgrade cards you want? having more then one sorce for that card can help

I now dont have to buy another Defender to get another Preadtor

I long for the day I never have to buy another Rebel ship. Scum and Imps should be able to cover me for future upgrades.

Super stoked for the engine upgrade. I can probably return my extra falcon now

I'll just add that if I hadn't had a YT-2400 passed along to me for free, I probably wouldn't have Lone Wolf. As a Scum player, I would have been ecstatic to see Lone Wolf and Stay on Target show up in the Hound's Tooth expansion.

The YT-2400 has never excited me, but recently I've been looking at Lone Wolf builds. So I'm glad to see I'm not going to have to purchase a ship I don't really want.

Just do the same thing I do - toss all the "unnecessary" dupes into their own box, and when you get enough of them, eBay them as a group or hand them off to another player just getting started into the game.

Someone with only a pair of core sets and maybe an E-Wing or Millennium Falcon expansion would be perfectly happy with your 5th R5-D8 or 2nd Lone Wolf or etc.

I'm excited to see Lone Wolf and Stay On Target 'cause I don't want to buy the Decimator or YT-2400 (ok, I sort of do want that one), but I do really want a YV-666! It's for people like me, not people like you.

I love how we complain when an upgrade card is only available in one expansion, and then we also complain when an upgrade card is made available in more than one expansion.

Yes. Because it's always nice to have a spare copy of a useful card, but not everyone wants to buy two (or even one) YT-2400.
