For fun... Wave 1 Fleets vs Wave 2 Fleets

By IceQube MkII, in Star Wars: Armada

If you could only use one Wave, which fleet would you use?

Yes, upgrades count in their respective Waves only.

Triple Assault Frigates with ECM and Gunnery Teams

Admiral Mon Mothma

8 X-Wings

Actually thinking of taking this list to a tournament in a few weeks time...except swapping Mon Mothma for Ackbar

Ahhh the Guppy Toilet Bowl.

Sorry this is all Steve and his merry bad's fault.

Same except garm.

Although 4 trc ordexp apt mc30s with rieekan or ackbar and some yt2400s could be fun also

For this exercise, can we use core set ships/upgrades with either wave, or not at all?

@Reinholt... that's a good question... I guess I counted Core as Wave 1.

For example...

Gladiators (e.g., Demolisher) vs. ISD

So I would argue that Wave 2 (though shinier) is not necessarily better than Wave 1.

Core set vs. Wave 2... that's a bit tougher!

I mean, I like x-wings and neb-b's, but...

I think squadrons have held up really well. I still sometimes run Wave 1 fleets for grins, but they're pretty exclusively carrier fleets. Example:
