Hey guys, I've had this idea floating around for awhile and want to see what you think:

X-WING 2nd EDITION CORE SET

Includes:

- 1 Rule Sheet

- 1 set of maneuver templates (with 4-banks and turns!)

- 6 dice

- 1 damage deck

- 2 Vulture Droid starfighters

- 1 Eta-2 Interceptor

- 10 pilot cards

- 6 upgrade cards

VULTURE DROID STARFIGHTER:

2, 4, 2, 0

TL, Barrel Roll, Boost

System, System, Missile

Pilots:

PS1 Trade Federation Fighter (x2)

PS2 Corporate Alliance Defender (x2)

PS4 Confederate Navy Fighter (EPT) (x2)

ETA-2 INTERCEPTOR:

2, 3, 3, 2

Focus, TL, Barrel Roll, Boost

System

Pilots:

PS 3 Jedi Warrior

PS 5 Obi-Wan (suggest ability)

PS 7 Ahsoka

PS 9 Anakin

Suggest cards, upgrades, changes, etc

I don’t like this idea. They would need to create new factions and/or sub-factions. We already have 5. Then you’d have to add the trade federation, Gallactic Senate. I’m not sure how they would do it. I play rebel ships, I don’t like the idea of the “good guy” senate ships that looked like the empire ships in my fleet.

It would only have 2 new factions: Republic and CIS.

CIS?

Confederacy of Independent Systems. The Separatist Alliance, in other words.

Roger that. There are a few ships I would mind seeing. Some of the Jedi fighters would be nice. We already have the ARC which carried over.

I would love to see this. I loved the prequels growing up and the ships were the best part.

Ships we could see:

Republic:

V19 Torrent

LAAT Gunship

Eta-2

Eta Shuttle

ARC-170

Clone Z-95

Y-Wing

Delta-7

CIS:

Vulture Droid

Hyena Bomber

Droid Bomber

Umbaran Fighter

Geonosian Fighter

Ginivex Fighter

Solar Sailor (personally I hate this ship and never want to see it)

Scum:

Hutt Fighter

Gozanti

Zygerrian frieghter

Slave I

I honestly think that you should be going with the V-19 Torrent instead of the Eta-2. If you're insistent on the Jedi Starfighter being in the Core set, you should go with the Delta-7. The V-19 appeared to be the stock clone starfighter in the Clone Wars series. I also think it would be entirely acceptable to only have the Republic vs. the CIS, don't bother with Scum, partly because there isn't quite enough info for scum ships, plus they almost always worked for the Separatists.

Yes remplace the jedi starfighter by a V-19 for the core set.

I fully support this idea : Could give a new name for the game :

Starfighter : The Clone Wars

With a new name you avoid problem of mixing with X-wing. I want to battle over Coruscant, Geonosis, Ryloth .... And we have a opportunity to have a campaign box with this period !

Edit : I think 2x Vulture Droid and 2x V-19 for the core set could be better, both are unshield and have missiles.

Beyond the new damage deck and the new maneuver (4 bank turns) how is this 2nd edition?

I'm seeing the same upgrade slots, the same actions. The dice scaling (hull/AGI/primary/etc) all appear to be the same scale (along with the same 6 dice) and this has often been complained about that it limits design space.

Even the pilot skill appears to be on the same scale.

It's a better name then YET ANOTHER X-WING CORE SET AND MORE FACTIONS YAY!

Would buy it. Honestly I am keen to see the Clone wars era.

Lol just firespray stats

Umbarran fighter should have 3 agility.

The droid fighters should have 4. The whole point of a droid fighter is that it can do high-stress maneuvers WAAAAAY easier than with a physical pilot.

Otherwise, the rest are ok.
