Wave 12 & 13 ... How Many of Each Ship

By HRCBlade, in X-Wing

Hey All

Wondering how many of each of the new ships is reasonably required for building standard Lists.

I have one of each on order but thinking may need some extras?

Maybe 2 Alpha Class Gunships & 2 Kimoglia ...... think 1 of all the others probably ok?

Thoughts and what are you ordering?

I've got one of everything on pre-order, but I'm strongly considering a second TIE Silencer after seeing how agressively costed Blackout and the generics are, and a second or third Star Wing after playing around with it on Vassal.

1 Silencer

2 Glorious Gunboats

That's it

1 as always. Buying more is folly until rereleased in a aces or heroes pack.

Yup

1 Silencer

2 Gunboats

I have an issue, still own two Punishers that reside within their space-age polymer shipping containers. That aside, four Gunboats were pre-ordered, what now seems like years ago.

Silencer? I was like, maybe. Now, with Blackout info spoiled, I might need too, err two....because this looks super pint-night fun:

(36) TIE Silencer "Blackout" PS7 (31): Trick Shot (0), Collision Detector (0), Autothrusters (2), Title (2), Primed-Thrusters (1)

(31) TIE Silencer "Sienar" PS4 (26): Fire Control Systems (2), Autothrusters (2), Primed-Thrusters (1)

(16) TIE/FO "Epsilon Squadron Pilot" PS1 (15), Primed Thrusters (1)

(16) TIE/FO "Epsilon Squadron Pilot" PS1 (15), Primed Thrusters (1)

I’ll wait post Santa probably.

Maybe ?

So far, one of each except the resistance bomber.

I am resisting the urge to add another Silencer and 3 more Gunboats.

3 gunboats, baby

maybe a silencer

Highly doubt the B-wing 3.0 will make any sort of impact whatsoever. It is, at best, a list of PS 5 harpoons roughly equivalent to deadeye SCURRG. It'll curbstomp lower PS, and get mulched by anything else.

personally have absolutely zero interest in the 'peede

2 gunboats, as a TIE fighter game series fan.
Maybe sheathipede, because it's a good expansion, despite my horror for prequel material.

One of everything. Maybe not the bomber since meh it's really there for Nym instead of adv sensors (though you could use them in epic sorta ok).

Add an extra Gunboat.

Then ask yourself how much epic you will play, what faction, and potentially allocate more towards that which makes epic better.

Honestly, there are aspects in each pack I am excited for EXCEPT the bomber I'm "meh" towards. I pre-ordered one of every non bomber. I think the Imperials won big though with the two best ships of the wave.

1 of each for starters...

... seriously considering a second Star Wing for when there's a global shortage - so as to sell it and put children through college on the profits.

Good replies guys ..... I am definitely thinking add the extra gunboat and maybe go 1 extra on the silencer. Be good to have some decent imperial stuff again :)

If you want more Gunboat, the answer is yes.

I really want to do cannon Gunboat in 100/6 and missile boats in epic.

I fear I cannot offer an impartial answer to this question.

5 Boats, 1 Silencer - Epic is getting more popular in Holland, and I can't imagine anything better than 5 of those glorious boats in Epic play.

My plan is usually one of each to start with. That said, the bomber is 'meh' to me, whereas flight assist astromech sounds great and so do the silencer and gunboats.

I'm hoping I'll manage to stick to one of each...

4 Gunboats (Because Gunboats! But seriously, these just look fun)

2 Kimogilas

1 shuttle

2 Bombers

2 or 3 TIE Silencers (these look to be **** good)

So, the 7th is still the rumored drop date, right?

Yes but I don't think that rumor is looking great when they haven't been updating the "upcoming" status.

My guess is the 14th. In before TLJ

One or two Gunboats, one Sheathipede, one Silencer. I rarely play S&V, and the Bomber isn't doing a lot for me, so those ships are way down on the priority list.

They usually update the status on Fridays, so if it's not updated by close of play today I might get a little concerned.


But my FLGS has confirmed as reliably as they ever can that we should expect it next week.

So far... zero.

The plan is to eventually get

3 Gunboats
and 1 of everything else. Well... save for the Kimoglia, that might stick at 0. I dunno. The model is a dog turd... literally, and the name sounds like some sort of Star Wars STD.

Only plan to get the Phantom II.

Will likely add the Silencer at some point.

I've gone for (first pre-order in a few waves):

1 Silencer
1 Phantom II
2 Kimogilas
3 Gunboats

Res Bomber doesn't interest me at all, even after the article.

Enough to run a full list of each ship... (except the shuttle just 2 of those)

Ya I am broken in the head but I like running full lists of one ship. (also my wife is very understanding of my hobbies for some reason)
