Mine is Empire. Because being bad is fun and fun is good.

When I first started in Wave 1, people said Empire was the most powerful. I decided to play Rebels just to play the underdog. Everyone I got into the game really wanted to play Rebels. So....I ended up playing a lot of Empire. I got good at it. I won events. I'm staying with Empire.

Also like Villainy as too many people play Scum. Why? They have some neat ships.

Empire. Because Star Wars: TIE Fighter is the best Star Wars game ever.

Empire, because sometimes the good guys are just misunderstood... Plus my friend played rebels, so i didn't want to just play the same ships as him, but the phantom and Tie Adv grew on me.

Rebel at heart, but I play best as Imperial. Imagine that.

Rebels: they are durable enough that plans can often work.

Scum because I don't mind losing as long as my opponent has a terrible time winning.

Rebel at heart, but I play best as Imperial. Imagine that.

Mine is Empire. Because being bad is fun and fun is good.

And evil will always triumph over good, becauae good is dumb

But then fun is dumb... Thus we are dumb... Oh..

Rebels, hands down. In fact, I cannot ever feel any love for the Empire or Scum, and I'm reluctant to even spend money on those.

This is actually a remnant of playing with Star Wars toys from Kenner. I really took the 'good guys' concept seriously, and none of the figures I played with were evil - Darth Vader, Boba Fett, Han Solo, all were on the same side, and the bad guys were invisible. I just liked my toys too much to call them 'bad'. When I was a little older, say 8-10, I realized that introducing visible villains in my stories was actually worth it and that bad guys could be cool. So I like Cobra and Decepticons, but the Empire remains a kind of black spot that I avoid. It's evil, plain and simple, and after about 35 years I still refuse to identify with evil with regards to something I really love - Star Wars. For me, Star Wars is about defeating evil.

Neither, because I can build a list I enjoy for any faction. i love the diversity of this game!

Personally, I'm not really faction wedded

My true love is for shenanigans

Rebs have the most, between hyper keyan and Kwings and bb-8

Scum have the Viper, essentially the uber Bwing with the added bonus of being bizarre and awesome

Imps have (now balanced)cloak shenanigans and Death rain is quite a blast. Don't even need sensors when you get seismics

I haven't developed a taste for Scum, at all, really. However, I love to alternate between Empire and Rebellion, enjoying the unique strengths of each in turn. So, apparently, I have no loyalty.

We play both kinds here; Scum and Villany.

S&V and MW is what first interested me in buying the game as opposed to just reading about it. However, credits dictate otherwise, for now.

P.S. As a very new player, I'm having a difficult time getting excited about the TIE family. Just variations on a theme. I know they each fly very differently but so far visually....meh.

I play all 3 factions but the Rebels are my first choice, and at a tournament I'll run them every time. The reason I like best is because they're the good guys, and the X-Wing.

I fell in love with the X-Wing in 1978 watching ANH and that love has not faded even a little bit.

Oh and X-Wing was every bit as good if not better then Tie Fighter. Especially when the mission editor.

I love the uniformity of the TIE family! It's all about those great threatening silhouettes, and how they look totally un aerodynamic.

I actually like all three factions visually; scum look nice and hotch-potch, rebels look slightly more uniform hotch-potch, and imperials are all nice and neat.

Empire. I like how all the TIE variants look.

I really like all factions. I have a 99% complete 100 point set of every ship in the game pretty much.

Started with Imps but was wishing for more Bounty Hunters. Now that FFG has committed all the BH's to fold, I'm S&V for life. What I really want now is a Scum ship for Krasis. Make it happen guys!!

Scum & Villainy, they have the more interesting ships and abilities. I was not really a player of the game, despite owning it since original core set release and a few other ships but was more a collector/casual player until S&V was announced and released.

I honestly love them all...

But Scum have Bossk.

Corporate Sector Authority!

Not to be confused with CorSec

Hard to decide, really. Picked the Alliance when I started simply because everyone else was playing Empire, but I find myself slipping towards the dark side with each day.

I play the three factions but I'd say I'm mainly a Rebel player. Lately though I've played Imperials a bit more often than usual (especially the TIE Advanced and TIE Defender) and Scum & Villainy quite a lot. I've been having a lot of fun with the S&V faction. So nasty and unpredictable overall.

Top 3 favorite ships per faction...

Rebellion: YT-1300, B-Wing, E-Wing

Empire: TIE Defender, TIE Phantom, TIE Interceptor

S&V: StarViper, Kihraxz Fighter, Aggressor

Y-wings were my favorite Rebel ship, so I played Rebels at release because Y-wings were in wave 1. I really got excited when the Firespray hit, though, and started running Imperial just for bounty hunters.

Now that Scum & Villainy has its own faction, that's where my heart is. I love the ESB bounty hunters best out of all of Star Wars. I'm excited that I can bring them into this game. Also, I tend to play the underdog factions in games and tend to use underdog ships. The Scyk has really drawn me in because of that ... and because it was my first ship in Star Wars Galaxies.

I do play Rebels from time to time, though. Painting Poe's X-wing has me super excited to get it to the table. Empire is cool too, but I just don't have many Imperial ships and there are S&V ships I want to double up on before branching out to the other factions again.
