We'll get Maul in the Phantom II expansion, but it won't be the "Darth" version. It looks like he will be a crew card for Scum or Ezra only. I don't think there was any point in canon when Maul had any positive feelings about the Galactic Empire.

I'm also not convinced Saw will be Scum if he ever comes out.

Hmm. There have been some good minor characters on the journey.

• Imperial: Thrawn (bad scale, I know)
• Scum: Aphra
• Rebels: Hey, let's throw a new EU character as opposed to the array of old I barely remember.. Evaan Varlaine

Grand Admiral Thrawn!!!

Edit: LagJanson beat me to it. Not that I thought for even a second that I was alone in that thought.

I think we'll see Thrawn if they ever make another Imperial huge ship.

Aphra works for Vader. She should be Imperial! (Plus, the Imps could use some freelance help. . .)

Had to look up Varlaine. Another Y-Wing ace would be nice!

And Thrawn could easily be released with a Sentinel-class shuttle, @pkreynolds .

Imperial: Orson Krennic or Galen Erso

Rebel: Galen Erso or R2-KT

Scum: Pondo Baba

Darth Maul is not empire. Darth Maul got offed before the empire existed, survived in the Clone Wars tv series just to lose his brother to ol'Palpie ALSO before the empire existed, then bummed around in REBELS while being distinctly not a part of the empire

that's why his crew is coming in a rebel ship and is scum only (also ezra only, probably)

There are only three darths in the empire, Sidious, Vader and Meanie.

Also Icky, but the Force Unleashed ain't canon (thank god)

but I too would like to see K-2SO. I would like to see what happens when someone forgoes giving him a blaster and gives him an ordnance capable ship instead.

Just some obscure ones you probably never heard of:

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Yoda

Agreed on both points. Maul does not fit as imperial, and saw would be rebel.

I want Aphra as an all factions crew, scum/imperial pilot.

I find your lack of faith disturbing.

Hurumpf, more proof that FFG hate the Imps. Maul is a Darth and belongs in the faction that has the other Darths. Hopefully, someday, we'll see prequel ships and have the Sith Infiltrator.

OTOH, flattery will get you everywhere.

given the meaning of "Nadir", I'd say you're more a reserve sith

Cool. Nice choice of an oldie but goodie. It would be awesome to have him and the good doctor in the game.

Rebels: General "bigger Stache than Biggs" merrick

Imps: Orson "and yet another imperial shuttle" Krennic

Scum: Talon " I can eaves drop on the NSA" Kardde

But, but, but... Maybe I'm using it ironically?

I mean come on... I've been wearing a glove on my left hand when I duel with my son for years because he caused that hand to bleed when he was 4 years old and told me he chopped it off. Believe me, I've earned my stripes.

And now finally, after many years, and many failed attempts to turn my children, I finally have my apprentice. My 6 year old daughter.. Darth Flora. Duel with her at your peril, because your knees will feel the full fury of the dark side of the force.

" The dark side is strong in me, for I am Sith. "

I'd love to see Saw & K2S0 show up in a U-Wing fix box. Include a title that grants an new firing arc to represent a door gunner.

Also Aphra as Scum in her ship the Archangel II, with 0-0-0 (crew) BT-1 (salvaged astromech) Black Krrsantan (crew) but also a pilot card and cardboard for Black Krrsantan to fly the Auzituck gunship as a scum ship.

How has only one post so far mentioned

OBI-WAN KENOBI!

Saw will likely come in something rebels (show and faction both) related in the future with his blue zebra bombing U wing

I had forgotten about this game. Actually I liked it, except for its frustrating gameplay experience on PC and its disappointing ending. (Why must all good things end disappointing? *CoughMassEffectCough*)

Actually, if we can ignore the badness, we already have Juno Eclipse from The Force Unleashed in this game, and I think it opens the door for some unique upgrades.

Galen Marek and Juno Eclipse are a few crew upgrades that could be simultaneously both Imperial-only and Rebel-only . (Since they already printed Mara Jade and wasted that opportunity)

Stepping outside of TFU and back into safer Legends territory...

Talon Karrde is a must-have, and could be simultaneously Rebel-only and Scum-only , which we have a good number of those kinds of upgrades already...

But for Rebels, I really want Crix Madine . I know he's not that big of a character, he only gets one line in The Return of the Jedi, and is killed off relatively early on in the Legends novels (spoilers you guys), but he did die in one of my then-favorite books by one of my then-favorite writers, so I have fond memories. Would love to have him piloting an A-Wing, or at least as a crew upgrade, even though the Rebels have waaay more crew upgrades than both the other factions...

(I'm assuming that FFG will certainly release K2-SO and Saw, I mean they kind of have to, that's the only reason they're not in my list)

On a side note I'm re-reading the X-Wing novels and really wish that FFG would've included Mynock/Gate (R5-G8) and Whistler... and maybe I'm sadistic, but I also really like EV-9D9 from Return of the Jedi...

Maul is not Darth anymore, and was never Imperial.

Saw was Rebel most of the time, even if he radicalized in his later years.

Rebels: Kasen Mor, Starkiller, Jaden Kor, K-2SO, and Jaina Solo.

Imperial: Thrawn, Palleon, and Jagged Fel.

Scum: Talon Karrde, Bo-Katan Kryze, and Dr. Aphra.

And for the ones we really, really won't see, I'll thrown in Revan, Meetra Surik, Canderous Ordo, and Carth Onasi in for fun and giggles.

Imperials: Cienna Ree . Getting a new Interceptor pilot could be fun. She'd probably be low pilot skill, though, so maybe also a crew for her. Speaking of Interceptors, Vult Skerris .

Rebels: Mon Mothma .

Scum: Boushh the Bounty Hunter. Because (s)he's holding a thermal detonator. This is 100% the one I want most.

Also Scum: Sidon Ithano --the Crimson Corsair, the Blood Buccaneer, the Red Raider--and Quiggold .

Hopefully an Imperial Aphra pilot for the otherwise Scum Archangel, so we can fly Vader and Aphra together.

Guns for Hire is out.
