Which ships do you plan on owning as a single?

By Plainsman, in X-Wing

Considering all the repaints that have come out, I am VERY glad I Decided to only ever buy ONE of each expansion, finite funds permitting.

I mean 5 TIEs (6 with Sabine's Masterpiece) is quite enough. Plus, I have friends who have the game, for when we play Aturi Cluster and need more TIEs.

I got into this game late in life, so will have to own all my ships while married.

On the flip side, what is everyone's opinion on the best expansions to buy more than one of?

Ghost and Sabine's TIE.

All other ships which are worth to own multiples are included in multiples when you follow the rule of "one of everything. You even get your 7 TIE-Fighters for a swarm that way (ok you need two Sabin's TIE Expansions as well, which you need anyway to use all 4 uniques). But for a double lothal rebel you need two ghost expansions.

If I get Sabine's TIE it is because I like the episode. So I'd only ever get one.

And the upgrades

...which are all unique

Yeah, one sounds fine :P

Actually I don't really care about the upgrades. I think, at least for me, this will be a craft used for missions. I don't think I will see it in regular 100 point death matches at home.

You don't care about the upgrades now

Wait till they're spoiled :P

To be honest, I only have one of all the Rebel's large ships and I don't see that changing. I will end up with two YT-1300 because of HotR. Sabine's tie will be a unique for me. The Shadowcaster and Kylo's shuttle will be a single purchases as well. The jury is out on the ARC-170. I have to have one before I decide if I need two, but vectored thrusters says yes.

Other single purchases so far are the Decimator and the Hound's Tooth. I am not opposed to additional purchases on these, but don't see a need.

All 4 epic ships, but I wouldn't mind another GR-75 and Gonzanti.

If I keep buying as many duplicates as I have been... I may find myself single again.

There's no large ship that I own multiples of, except for Aggressors (the title made me do it).

There are times when I'd like to run multiples of certain ship types and I don't have the extras laying around, but buying roughly 1 of everything is easier on my wallet, and reminds me that a good list benefits from diversity, since different ships bring different tools to the table.

All of them.

Some of them will have 2 singles.

Some 3.

A precious few I will have 4+ singles of...

Well, pretty much any large base ship is a single purchase for me... With the exception of the yt-1300 'cause I'm going to end up with a 2nd after HotR hits the shelves.

All epic ships; definitely don't need more than one of those.

Most of the rebel ships are multiple purchase depending on requirements. Only have one hwk and one k-wing, if I can keep it that way it'll be nice.

But since I play mostly rebels that makes most of the scum/imperial ships single purchase items: I only buy what I need to get the upgrade cards to keep my rebels happy.

While I will be purchasing 4 GUNBOATS I will only need one Missile Boat. Cause, you know, it can solo a 300 pt epic list.

Of the ships that are in our hands, Starviper, Tie Punisher, K Wing, Falcon and Ghost. The jury is still out on what I don't have in my hands yet. :)

I plan on buying 6 Gunboats if they ever hit the shelves, because they are awesome

I want to create my own missions (or re-create Tie Fighter missions)

In general, I will buy multiples of small ships, but only one large ship. Only double large ship I have is the Aggressor.

I very rarely buy multiples of ships (limited budget and attention span). The only ships I own in multiples are the ones that come in multiple expansion packs (Aces, Veterans, Transport etc). I rarely get to play Epic (fun though it is) so 1-2 of most ships is plenty for me.

I don't play Scum so multiple Brobots or U-boats are not lists I field.

At the moment, I only own one of each large based ship and I don't see that changing. I also don't even own the Hound's Tooth. Don't plan on getting one. Oh, I do have two Bro Bots, but I've never actually flown them. I don't see me getting another Tie Punisher or K-wing. I am happy with just one Mist Hunter.

The new stuff? I see me getting one of each of Wave 9, except I can see skipping the TIE /SF if I am short on cash. I might get two ARC-170's as they are just cool ships.

Wave 10? I might just skip the whole wave. Maybe the Scum one.

very few ships small have been single ships for me (although in hindsight, no need for a 3rd Kihraxz or M3-A) and I usually find two ships of each is enough to keep me happy unless I'm looking for a specific build.

I find this funny because I've been running an Epic mission with Imperials going to blow up a Pirate base, but I just don't have enough Kihraxz Fighters or Scyks. I've got 2 Kihraxz and 3 Scyks, but I could bump their numbers up to 5 each. Man, those Kihraxz Fighters in Epic will rip things apart!

So, I find myself wanting more of these ships than the new stuff announced!

For forthcoming stuff, I can see myself getting all the Rebel and Imperial stuff from Waves 9 & 10. I might even get 2 of the Tie/sf just to try some silly shenanigans with the Co-ordinate action on the Bat-shuttle.

Generally I only single larges, with the exception of brobots for obvious reasons.

Wave 10 is an all single wave.

I do have two decimators however.
