And I and I hate to admit it, but if the Quasar is cheap I may even get 5 of them for a massive carrier build.
The *most* important question about wave 6

Wow, that's... impressive. I'd love to see that list on the table.
Hammerheads with external racks are going to make a great Akbar-swarm.

20 activations... you can't build in more than 16 tie fighters. If it would be rebel you could play 19 z95 but it doesn't... yet...
Since the Hammerheads come in a two pack I think one of each will do fine for now.
I'll be grabbing 2 of each. :-)
I like to have as many as there are titles, so 3 is looking right.
Of the quasar that is...
Edited by JukeyHard to say. Usually when we're talking small-base ships i go with 3. Seeing how they come two to a box this wave, i may opt for just 2.
However if it was revealed that the quasar-fire came with a card that allowed rebels to add one and only one to their fleets (not saying it'll happen, just wishing it would), then i would SOOOO add a Carrier as well.
Consider this gentlemen.
When has there been an Armada Wave release that was only 1 product for each faction?Hmmm!
(Wave3/4 was technically one wave)
No way dude. Only 2 ships means the game must be dead. I'm sure I've read it before!
I buy enough for options and I buy both factions. I typically get 2 of each expansion. I have one home one and one pelta. But I have 3 of a lot of the small ships.
I will get 2 of each.
I am the only one that buys armada in my group of friends. Now that we have CC I buy for the ability to build 3 fleets

Always a first time, Irokenics. However if they later reveal another ship each side, they wouldn't have to twist my arm much to get me to buy it
Definitely only one of the Quasar Fire. Maybe two of the Hammerheads, depending on point cost and whatnot.
I'm more of an Imperial player... I'll be getting one quasar at least (for sloane if nothing else), but I'll need to run it a few times to see if it's something I'd want to run multiples of. Two defense tokens makes me a little nervous about allowing these ships to get into firing range, so I'll need big fighters and some Lambdas at least.
Part of the problem also of taking multiple QFs is if their activations can make up for being out-activated by massed small ships. Currently large ISD-VSD gunboats can't overcome being out-swarmed by CR-90s. If the points discount (if any) from the stats switch from a VSD is worth it, I can see fielding two of them. If not, it'll be one with some heavier (GSD/ARQ) escorts with their fighters.
2 of each for sure, I may go as high as 3 of each, but that will depend on how much I enjoy flying them.
Although at the moment I am planning on doubling up on me wave 5 expansions and add 2 of each squadron pack, 2 more Arquintes & another Pelta... That and a 3rd Liberty.
Going with 2 QF and one hammerhead.
Lol, I want 3 HH, but knowing my budget right now maybe I can afford one hahaha
I need a new carry case first
The more I play the more I realize I need two of both wave 5 ships so I will definitely consider buying two of wave 6 as well
4 Quasars could fully run 16 TIEs!!! just saying...
I Will probably buy 2 quasars and 2 hammerheads. First to have small Carrier battlegroup (for fun) and Hammerheads for cards
1 & 1 at first, maybe if I like them 2 quasar 3 HH
I'll probably end up with two hammerheads if the ship ie cheap enough, and two Quasar fire when I break one modding it.
Probably two boxes of hammer heads to go with my 4 CR90s, I can field a corvette swarm then...... Just one imp carrier at first but if its costed right to get two in a fleet I will go with a second. I just can't wait to get kallus on one of these, I'm hoping they come with a turbo laser slot so I can have the opportunity to add TLRC just for the laughs of rolling 3 red dice ( Kallus + concentrate fire) with the ability to mod one to a double damage and one shot a unique squadron.......at long range...... Imagine the joy as Gold squadron gets zapped.
