Next ships (after Wave 12/13)

By Urmel69, in X-Wing

Hondo's Corona class frigate. with Hondo of course. and Pulsar skate with Mirax and her dad Booster...

The Resistance A-Wing and First Order Bomber are pretty much shoe-ins as far as I can see, though one or both might be pushed to wave 15, similar to the Quadjumper.

I also think the Gauntlet is a pretty sure bet, but whether big base or epic is questionable. I would prefer they just go big base with it, but I'll take it either way.

Most of the other ships I want has already been mentioned, like the N-1, Blastboat, V-Wings (heck, I'll take both), TIE Reaper, the Ark Angel, and so on.

I'm hoping to see some expansions take after the Scrugg and be crossfaction. It opens up a lot of interesting options and the same ship can be given different options for the different factions they are in.

For utter and impossible pipe dream, I'm gonna throw out my wish for an Ebon Hawk expansion. The likelihood of this ever happening are insanely minuscule (I don't think it is impossible, but they are neighbors), but I still want it.

All in all, I think I'd be open to just about anything people have put up here. It's nice to see lists like this to remind me that there are still plenty of ships in Star Wars to fuel the game.

We're not going to get the Avenger with the advent of the Silencer.

That's a diverse wave :D

The TIE Avenger seems too small of a change from the Advanced to the Silencer. It will make one of them obsolete. Maybe as an eventual prototype title card, remvoing the tech slot to add a missile for the Silencer?

Hoping for:

Rebels:

Small Ships: N-1

Big Ship: YT-2000 (Hoping forever for the Ebon Hawk or any of the old repblic frieghters)

Epic: Hammerhead

Imperial:

Small Ship: Krenics Shuttle, TIE FO Bomber...

Big Ships: Tie Reaper and/or Tie Fury

Scum:

Dunno.

If I could have the pick of the litter for Wave 14 this would be my line up.

Imperial Patrol Transport (2 atk PWT, missiles, crew slot)

220?cb=20150323124854

N1 Naboo Starfighter (E-wing atk/agl, A-wing HP, astro)

499?cb=20170825000654

Gauntlet Starfighter (large base, 2 crew, cannon, aux arc, IG-2000-esque dial)

latest?cb=20170410154138

Of course, the ship we all want to see most in the game is the T-65 X-Wing . Actually on the table - could you imagine it? I'd love to see an ace pack released with a Corran Horn and Tycho Celchu theme (CorSec green and Alderaanian Guard red) with accompanying fixes.

The Gauntlet would be pretty amazing. I'd love to see Maul with a siilr ability to Vader, something like " after attacking a ship, you may suffer one faceup damage card to give the defender 2 stress tokens. ", brutal for both parties.

The ETA-2 and Delta-7 would be fantastic additions, and I don't really care what faction the pilots are in (but I wouldn't complain about a new faction or two).

I'd love to see a different configuration of the YT-1300 released as a scum model - maybe a dorsal cockpit and forward firing guns? Give it some awesome pilot abilities but the frame of the Smuggler.

The Chiss Clawcraft would be fantastic, but for me the big seller would be Jagged Fel as a pilot. I'm envisioning an ability somewhere between Soontir and Wedge like " When attacking, if you are stressed, the defender must reroll all [evade] results." with a dial to back it up.

I'd like to see the H-wing in the game, so the argument of "ugliest ship" can be settled once and for all.

So RZ-2 is a shoo-in. It'll be on the big screen, actual characters will fly it, and it'll be the perfect chance to slip in the A-wing's equivalent to IA and hopefully give regulars a little boost. Also plz the RZ-1T title.

The N-1 is a strong contender, but FFG has held off on it for a while.

For imperials, I think the Patrol Transport (shown in the most recent season of Rebels to be space worthy), TIE Reaper or the Sentinel-class are probably most likely, FFG really needs to put out an imperial ship with crew to get out some of these named characters we've been seeing lately.

Scum is the eternal question mark, but they've got like a half a dozen ships from SWG to work through they'll be fine.

Probably the three swg faction gunships. Would be very cool having ships that ate up all of a 100 point list by themselves.

Wants:

Tie avenger

TLJ Awing

Star Jewel scum epic (won't happen since Jabba is out already but I can dream)

I don't have any hope for them except the Awing. I would be happy with almost any good looking Scum epic in the Corvette size platform.

I second the Sentinel too, it is the last ship from the OT that could really be added, and with how often it is used on Rebels it could bring a fair bunch of Imperial only crew. Heck, just having Thrawn as a crew upgrade in that expansion would push sales.

Don’t forget Hondos custom one!

The Ravens claw would be really neat.

I want

A) The Rogue Shadow with Starkiller, Proxy, and Juno Eclipse.

and

B) Some new ship that is literally nunchucks in space. Like, two capsules connected by a freaking chain.

None of you have mentioned the V-19 Torrent Star Fighter. For shame!

I honestly don't care how they justify getting this ship into the game, I just want it to be goofy, usable, and fun. Also: rebel. Not because the Rebellion used any, but purely for the aesthetic.

Probably because its exclusively clone wars era, but I too love those ships!

If they can make a First Order TIE Fighter, then they can make me a NON-First Order Avenger.

Well, the Empire does fight against them - as the Empire - many years after the Clone Wars in “Thrawn”...

Yeah but they're probably not going to.

Kind of hoping for some more Ace-Packs. There are quite a lot of ships that can both use some tweaks here and there and would help making the game board look like classic Star Wars again.

A possible Scarif-Expansion has been discussed at length, packs could open more options for Strikers and boost U-Wings.

Battlefront 2 leaves the option of an Inferno-Squad TiE (kind of like the ARC-170, no generics), and we still have no Delta-Class T3c-Shuttle.

Resistance A-Wings should be pretty much a given.

TIE Avenger! :) not this Silencer shiz

Inferno Squad use TIE/sf.
