How much Wave 7 are you getting?

By FatherTurin, in X-Wing

So with Wave 7 almost here (and already in the hands of folks who got them from GenCon), what are people's thoughts on how many of each ship to get? As a Scum/Rebel player I know I'm getting 5 total Kihraxz, probably 1 Hounds Tooth, and a Punisher (just because I can't wait for the ghost to get cluster mines). My issue is how many K-Wings to get. A huge part of me wants 3 to run an all K-Wing list, but I'm worried they will lack serious punch. Pure Y-Wing lists at least have the title to get dual attacks, but 4 naked K's or 3 with some upgrades seems like a losing proposition.

So, what are your thoughts, and how many ships from this wave do you plan on getting?

Right now I'm just lined up for one of each. Then I'll play test to see what I'll want more of. The K and the Punisher seem to have the most promise right now, but they might be too expensive to run more than one.

the usual what ever adds up to 100 points per ship type and if an odd number + one...

I'm getting two punishers. I have no interest in the K-wing or the Kirghizistan People's Republic fighter. All I need from the K-wing is the TLT and I'm only mildly interested in the EPTs that come with the Kerplakistan ship.

Money is tight as I was out of work for my ankle surgery. I think I've only got $40-50 for this. So....1 K-wing, 1 Tie Punisher, 1 Kihraxz. That's it for now! I'll have to save for the Hound's Tooth.

My birthday is in Oct, so I should get some cash then. I'll pick up the Hound's Tooth and at least 1 more Kihraxz.

The sad part is that I don't even want to fly the K-wing or Punisher. I just want the cards in them. I do want to fly the other two, though.

Hound's Tooth, definitely.

Umming and aahing over 3 Kihraxz Fighters. Because Lightning Reflexes, Crackshot, Predator and Glitterstim.

And I'm really tempted to run the 5-ship Hutt Cartel list.

1 Kihraxz and 1 hounds tooth. Then the Punished with a 2nd Kihraxz.

All of it and probably all of it again. You win FFG, the force is strong with you.

I somehow manage to keep every wave to right around $106 at miniature market. This time, it's 1 hounds tooth, 3 K-fighters, 2 K-wings and 2 punsihers

Same here, not so much limited on the funds, as what looks viable in a team with enough upgrade cards for other squads in planning too. I might eventually add a second Hound's Tooth, but it will be some time before I play enough of the other stuff to want a second one of those.

Two K-wings and 2 punishers will do it for me as I don't fly Scum. I will round out the order with the 2nd Y-wing I've wanted for a while and a few Zs to add to the swarm. Wave 8 is looking like a wallet buster.

1 k-wing and 2 kyraxz

A whole bunch!

One of each though i'll probably get a second k fighter and punisher.

Once of each but probably 2 or 3 Khakistan fighters for now. Might end up with 5 eventually if they perform solid.

Only other ship I might get another is the Punisher but that is iffy.

2x Hounds Tooth
2x Punisher
1x K-Wing (for now)
2x K-Fighter (for now... cause I already have one a friend nabbed a Gencon - so I'll be at 3 to start.)

Things could change. But that's the current idea.

4 Iggies are needed. In Epic, they're insane

I have 1 of each on preorder.

After I play with those a bit, I will see.

However, right now, I could see myself having 4 total K-Fighters and 2 K-Wings. I have no urge to get more than one YV-666 or Punisher. I don't care for builds with more than 1 large ship and if I fly the punisher, like everything imperial I fly, it will be in conjunction with a miniswarm :P

2 Hound's Tooth

3 Kihraxz

2 K-Wing

2 TIE Punisher

I'll hit this wave a little slower than S&V, I've got a small pile of M3-A interceptors collecting dust. 1 of each, and after trying some stuff on Vassal I'll go from there.

I already picked mine up at Gencon except for the Punisher (since I won a voucher for one at a local tourney). Now, I'm wishing I had grabbed that ship as well though. Deathrain looks like silly fun.

Exacts:

3 Hound's Tooth

15 Kihraxz

2 K-Wing

2 TIE Punisher

Might be enough...

:lol:

1 Hound's Tooth

2 K Fighter

3 K-Wing

2 TIE Punisher

I typically get 3 of all the ?-Wing's so that's the same. I'm easing into scum so 1 HT will do me for a while. Money is tight but eventually I'd like 3 or maybe 4 K-fighter's. With Imperials I like to get 4 of each TIE variant, but with money being tight again I'm sticking with 2. Gotta arm my Rebels with those cluster mines.

1 Hound's Tooth (might bump to 2 after a few months)

2 K-Wing

2(?) TIE Punishers (I think it's 2. Definitely at least 1)

3 Kihraxz
