The X-Wing is a Fine Ship

By stooster99, in X-Wing

6% of people in regionals agree which is a bit low for a game with its name I think

Disclaimer: None of the content of this post is meant to be insulting, sarcastic or combative. Just my $.02. Probably worth less.

You guys are obviously way more experienced with this game than I am. You are also a lot smarter about how you build your lists. Crunching numbers? I have no idea how you would even do that.

But I hope that X-Wing fighters become more competitive in the metagame, and soon. I bought the game called "X-Wing" to fly X-Wings. Playing with other ships that I have never even heard of is fun. But (and I know this is obvious to you all...) the X-Wing has become obsolescent due to the release of newer and more competitive fighters with newer and more competitive maneuvers and upgrades.

Here's hoping for the best in the future.

X wing will be a much finer ship with the new rebel aces pack coming out!

Tell me what you know!

My Idea:

Modification

T65 J

0 Pts

Modifications cost 3 less squad points(Minimum of 0).

This allows you to gain +1 hull for free, or boost for 1 pt.

Not sure about the name yet? Any idea's

I have had a free Hull Upgrade in my public House Rules since December 8, 2014. A few months later, Dom Cairo suggested making it as you described, on a Scum and Villainy podcast. My newest, and probably final iteration is to go back to the original idea of +1 Hull, but make it a shield instead (puts the jousting numbers where they need to be), also give it barrel roll on the action bar, and make it a title so Wedge et al can still get Engine:

X-wing Fix

Title. X-wing only.

Cost: 0/1*

Increase your shield value by 1. Your action bar gains the [barrel roll] action icon.

* Cost 1 for Biggs and Wedge

Edit: Also (I use half points specifically because that's the only way to make the PS4s worthwhile):

Red Squadron Pilot cost reduced from 23 to 22.5.

Hobbie cost reduced from 25 to 24.

Garven gains the EPT slot.

Wes Janson cost reduced from 29 to 28.
