Difficult cards

By mtrein, in X-Wing Squad Lists

So i am wondering if the Tie Advanced fix will only be available with the Imperial Raider expansion. I don't like huge ships and certainly don't want to fork out such a high amount on something that i will never play with (and that is not even on the same rough scale with small or large ships). This is really pissing me off, and also with other cards on Tantive and Rebel Transport, up to the point that I might consider selling everything and just doing something else altogether.

What do you guys think on this?

Proxy?

If you are only playing casual, just print them from the wiki and get your opponent's permissiin.

Yeah I like Ebay. Sure some cards go as high as $6 bucks and it's sneaky of FFG to pack cards that way but I really like this game. As for the Imperial Raider..yeah hefty price tag, can see why you don't want it. Personally I'll probably buy it even if I never play with it. I just think it's a **** sexy ship plus it comes with Juno Eclipse (I enjoyed playing Force Unleashed 1). Question; what is wrong with the Tie-Advanced that needs fixing? I'm new to the game.

It is too expensive for what it's worth. The y, the a, and others have all had some kind of fix, but for the tie advanced you have to buy the huge ship, which I absolutely refuse to do for obvious reasons. So either I photocopy/print the card (in which case I can't use in tournaments) or I just sell the whole thing and just be done with it. As much as I love the game, the minis are already way overpriced, and if I have to pay a truckload of cash just to get some cards which I believe should be gotten for free, maybe it is time to just go and do something else altogether.

:rolleyes:

Just find someone on the forums who wants a second Raider but doesn't need enough Advanced stuff for eight TIES. Worked for me. -shrug-

Man if xwing is overpriced there really are no fairly priced mini games out there... I think the raider deal is actually pretty awesome; they give you 4 copies of the fix, which is far more generous than any other epic ship, and since I'm sure there will be extras people won't use the card shouldn't be too bad on eBay.

I suspect that the 4 copies of the Advanced's fix in the Raider may be more than a number of people need/want and they may become available on a secondary market. Without the Raider you can just go on flying the Advanced like you always have which is to say not much.

As for what I think about rage quitting the game because you don't want to buy the epic ships to get the cards in it I say just suck it up! Either recognize that you will not be playing with those upgrades, you will bread down and buy those epic ships, or you will try to find them on a secondary market from a place that breaks down boxes like those or from someone who bought multiple copies for some reason. Perhaps your opponent would allow you to proxy those things in a casual setting but that is him being generous where if he says NO he is just following the baseline as opposed to being negative which is to say you can't use something you actually do have.

This again

What does this have to do with Squad lists?

He was probably clicking around in an online squad builder, and found the TIE advanced title listed as unreleased and coming in the raider and got annoyed. The online builders show you the full panoply of available options for X-wing. Then you get frustrated when you do the math of how many expansions you have to buy to get the pieces you want for your list.

Thank you all for your inputs, each and everyone (no matter if negative of sympathetic). I put this post here because I thought this was the most adequate subtopic. If this is not the case, I ask that any admin just move it where it belongs.

And yes, I will suck it up... I know I won't sell my collection. Except for epic, I like the game too much *shrugs*

If anyone will get a raider and does not mind sending a card my way, please get in touch. I would really love to be competitive with my tie advanced again.
