Changing gears, just slightly.

Let's look at total numbers of different pilot cards, by ship, for the Rebels and Imps (I don't care about Scum for right now).

TIE/ln: 13. Iconic. Cool. Most prolific fighter of either side.

TIE/in: 10. Also iconic and cool. Should be 2nd most common TIE, to my mind.

T-65 X-wing: 10. I'd say we could use *at least* 2 more pilots. Could be same or more than TIE/ln, just because it's the good guys

TIE/ad: 8. A bit much, should be most rare TIE.

TIE/sa: 7. Cool. I like it.

TIE/D: 7. Also looks very cool. This is supposed to be rare, too. Likely less rare than the TIE/ad, though.

B-wing: 6. Seems good. Should be the most rare Rebel fighter.

A-wing: 6. 3rd most common Rebel, but still rare. Could argue for 1-2 more pilots.

Y-wing: 4. Unacceptably low. The most common Rebel fighter (by numbers used). Should have a crew option without losing turret (BTL-S3). Half of Y-wings used should be this model. We need at least 4 more pilots here, probably.

Z-95: 4. Probably fine. Outdated model, only used by the desperate or old-timers. Could make a case for seeing Han in one...

Assault Gunboat: 0. Wanted desperately!

N-1 Naboo Starfighter: 0. Needed desperately!

HotR had 10 pilots.

MW had 20.

It is certainly possible to have more than the 8 found in RA, IA, and IV.

Pilot cards: for Hera in a B-Wing or A-Wing, Sabine in a A-Wing, Rebel Fenn Rau in Phantom II, Kanan (ignores blinded pilot) or Ezra in a A-Wing, Shara Bey in A-Wing, Phoenix Squadron Pilot, Blue Squadron Pilot, Imperial Defector in a TIE Bomber

Ships: Blue X-Wing, Green A-Wing, Grey Y-Wing

Cards: Consular Ship (CR90 or Hammerhead; similar to Captured Tie), more droids, things to spark forum debates, and cool stuff from the as yet unseen parts of the Star Wars universe, stuff from other sets like the Y-Wing title.

Threads like this do FGG's (hey people!) work for them but it is great if our input is considered.
