New player unsure of what to play

By SassyPigLatin, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I'm familiar with x wing but I just don't know what to play! I'm most interested in rebel and already have my go to list for scum.

I currently have:

1 original core set

2 TFA core sets

1 Y-Wing expansion

1 Tie Advance expansion

1 Millennium Falcon expansion

1 Slave 1 expansion

1 Z-95 Headhunter expansion

2 VT-49 Decimator expansions

1 Most Wanted expansion

1 Starviper expansion

2 Kihraxz Fighter expansions

1 Ghost expansion

1 Inquistors Tie expansion

1 Punishing One expansion

2 Protectorate Starfighter expansions

1 Sabine's Tie Fighter expansion

2 Tie Aggressor expansions

1 Auzituck Gunship expansions

1 Scurrg H-6 Bomber

1 Imperial Aces expansion (missing gray interceptor with all gray pilots)

1 Rebel aces expansion (missing B-Wing with all pilots)

1 Heroes of the Resistance expansion

1 Tantive IV expansion

1 Imperial Assault Carrier

again mostly interested in rebel lists and already have a go to scum list, but am still interested in imperial lists. Also will take advice on want to get next.

Thank you in advance!

So, you've got a huge pool of resources at your disposal and only the vaguest idea of what you want.

Friendly reply, read this thread:

Triple T-70's is fun, diverse and accessible.

I dislike threads of "here's everything I have, build me a list!" Do it yourself, it's part of the fun of the game.

Um what rebel side even has you remotely curious to want to play? Blank slates are nice and all but some direction helps. Otherwise you take 8 z-95's and Swarm like a group of TIE's.

With the ships you allready own do not restrict yourself to one faction. Try at least a couple of times each faction. My advice.

And some ideas to start squadbuilding 101...

2 Protectorate Starfighters plus Shadow Hunter or Dengar. You own the best Scum ships.

Falcon plus Biggs plus T 70.

VT 49 plus Inquisitor plus 2 Academy.

Easy starting point. You own a respectable force. And good ships also. As we allways say there are many ways to play X Wing.

But my focus is... Do not restrict to one faction only if you own the ships. Try and experiment. If you can play with experienced players. There is no "best" faction unless you play Top level.

After perhaps 10 or 20 games start thinking about what you like...or dislike. Also limit yourself to 3-4 ships. Not easy to play 7-8 ships swarms with no experience. Good luck
