How many Wave 10 are you buying and why?

By Pimpbacca, in X-Wing

1 tie, one u-wing.

The beauty of being a single faction player.

My initial list, may change but doubtful.

U-Wing - Qty 2

TIE Striker - Qty 2

Upsilon - Qty 1

Rebel TIEs - Qty 1 (may add a 2nd later, post holidays)

Quadjumper - Qty 1 (may add 1 or 2 post holidays depending on playability) They may make good Armed Tugs for Epic Ships in Scenario play as well.

HOTR : Qty1

The u-boat, striker, and shuttle. Not entirely sure about Sabine's tie. It feels weird to a) fly a tie as a rebel and b) fly only one tie.

You can fly 4 TIEs - it's just that only one can have Sabine's Masterpiece, and only one can be a Captured TIE. They don't have to be the same one, though.

Another H-shaped TIE with a paint variant? I'll pass on this wave, and wait for the XG-1 Assault Gunboat.

What about the M-shaped TIE?

1 Batwing

1 U-Wing

4 TIE Strykers

1-2 quadjumpers

0-1 Sabine Tie

1-2 SWX 58

A Protectorate Starfighter... and a Scyk.

Yes, shut up. :P

2 Quad Jumpers... that's it for now.

2x Kylo's Shuttle
2x Tie Striker
2x U-Wing
1x Sabine's Tie
1x Quad Jumpy

To start... unless certain things change, then adjustments will be made.

None at the moment, nothing there really strikes my fancy.

I love the idea of land war, but am fearful for this reason. I am afraid of how much i would spend on land speeders, Turrets, tie strikers, AT-STs, etc. I'm confident I'd burn $500 in a day on miniatures if they released an x-wing compatible ground assault. What are they waiting for?

so.....Strikers??? lol

Oh btw guys Frank answered an email. Striker title will NOT deny it an action step if it bumps/hits a rock, as only your normal maneuver does that (i.e. dial or ion). REJOICE!

I've not even got my wave 9 yet - but hmmm wave 10...

Yeah, I may have jumped the gun a little on this. A couple of G&T's will do that to you. :)

Normally I buy pretty much as much as I need for 100 point list, but money might be getting a bit tighter in the near future for me. Also, I don't get enough time to go through all the spoils and card threads to make a truly informed decision.

Sabine's Tie. Can't see much point in getting more than two of these due to the way the title's and other cards work.

Ren's shuttle. Can anyone convince me to get more than one of these?

I suppose we need some more spoils on what point costs are for the rest, and updates might change opinions.

U-Boats. These look great. Maybe 3?

Quad x 2. Again, I can't see this as spammable just yet.

Tie Striker. Anything Tie is spammable in my books, at least just for fun. How many is viable?

My favorite part is how you talk about money being tight and then getting multiple copies for each ship per wave. Even with budgeting and saving I can barely afford more than 2 or 3 ships total per wave let alone multiple of each... right now I only own protectorate from the latest wave... waiting for ARCs to come down in price a little so I can finally start playing those too...

I have savings, sheesh! *scratches wrist whilst muttering plastic crack, plastic crack, gotta get me plastic crack*

2x Kylo's Shuttle

2x Tie Striker

2x U-Wing

1x Sabine's Tie

1x Quad Jumpy

To start... unless certain things change, then MISTAKES will be made.

Fixed. :)

Multiple TIE Strikers at least, because the more I see of that ship the more I like it, even without knowing full X-Wing spoilers for it.

Probably a Quadjumper or two, Scum's my main faction after all.

Upsilon's a model I've always wanted, so that's a given.

U-Wing seems pretty interesting too, and is something that would make me want to play Rebels more, probably pick up one.

Really Sabine's TIE's the only one I'm not planning on just yet, though getting to use Rex and Ahsoka pilots appeals to me thematically.

I was feeling that they would do a starter set since Rogue One is so full of LAND WAR but it seems like that card game is their big deal for this season... sucks.

:rolleyes: :huh: :P

I'll wait to see if the lightweight frame is useable for Deathrain, then buy the card off Ebay. Nothing else piques my interest.

At this stage, I think it'll just be the two Rebel ships to start with.

Yeah, I'm gonna buy one of each and play test, then buy more. I think I'll probably end up buying a lot of upsilon shuttles. Depending on base pilot cost, a swarm of those could be a thing. Maybe three could be the new U-Boats?

ALL THE STRIKERS.

Without having more info on them, these numbers are likely to change.

1 U-Wing, Upsilon and Sabine's tie

2+ Tie Strikers and Quadjumpers

Far too early to say. Rogue One has not started, not that much known yet from the existing previews of them.

I don't like mixing timelines, thus so far I have avoided TFA stuff. That said, feelings so far:

-2 Quadjumpers. Tugboats, yeah! Probably hilarious to fly, and really good for scenarios and scenery.

-HotR maybe. One of the kids wants Poe. And I actually do not have the old MF, never interested in a fat pancake. Good cards in the pack. If the new MF only would not have been PWT, instead rotating arc.

-Rebel Tie maximum 1. Depends as well on quality of the paint job. Nice for mission/cinematic play.

-TIE striker 0. Waiting for R1, maybe then more interested.

-U-wing 0. Looks really stupid on the large base - while K-wing and Punisher squat on a small base :/ good cards though - thus waiting for R1.

-UPS 0. Do not like the rip-off shuttle, not interested in its implementation as of now. Howwver, many unknowns yet.

-Partisan x-wing :) waiting for R1 and preview.

As a purely Imperial player...

3 Strikers

1 Upsilon

Btw.: I was in Essen at the Spiel, and those Wings are CRAZY LARGE. Not even kidding. CRAZY! Like 15 cm or so.

Looking like 2 Sabine TIEs, 2 TIE Strikers, 1 Ups Shuttle, 1 or 2 U-Wings and I think my missus wants 2 or 3 Quads she flys the scum and nothing else lol.

Wow! Same as me! Very cool :D . I usually like to buy one big ship, and two small ones, but I only wanted one of Sabine's TIE because it's (in my opinion) a very one of a kind, unique ship.
