Rebel without a clue

By Eyegor, in X-Wing Off-Topic

To help me advance in this game I've been trying to get as many games in as I can. Both face to face and virtual. All casual so far. I've also been facing off against myself as further practice. While all this is going on I'm trying to plan out future purchases because I can't afford everything. So far I'm successfully resisting the urge to buy everything. Now to the point:

Despite seeing how much fun my Tie/fo's are to fly and despite wanting badly to jump into the S&V pool, I keep finding myself drawn towards the Rebellion/Resistance. I know the meta says that X-wings are behind. But I find Poe to be great. I haven't even flown Red Ace yet but can't wait. Same with Wedge. My brain likes numerical superiority but my gut says Rogue Squadron. Rogues escorting some wishbones sounds great to me.

Scum is what originally convinced me to want to buy in but now all I can think about is HotR; where before I was debating how many MW paks I was going to buy, even though I don't own any of the ships included with the cardboard. My brain tells me I need to fly some Scum before getting more Rebel ships but my heart keeps going Black One, Falcon, more IA, YEEAAHHH!

I think I've been infected.

Welcome to the glorious resistance! We will fight tyranny wherever we find it!

The only cure is more cow-bell.

Go with your heart. I'm casual too and I'm happy flying X's & Y's.

I'm more a movie-ship kind of guy, really (that includes Clone Wars & Rebels). I haven't bought any yet, but the Z-95's really appeal to me as well.

I'd love to see the variety of ships from the sequel trilogy increase, but the next movie is over a year away, and the soonest we'd see any X-wing miniatures from Episode 8 I'd say would be Summer/Fall 2018!
