But that's way over in the "nice to have" list. So no rush.
I would save that upgrading to a campaign. I really don't want the Rebels to have 3 ships over the imperials. Also #TeamVindicator

But Liberties, Peltas, Raiders, Arquitens and Vics are all roughly comparable in performance in hitting top tables about 5-10% of the time. Vics do have the distinction of being the most taken of the struggling ships.
I wonder how much that has to do with it being an early wave/core box ship.
Id be interested in how well non Gallant Haven AF and non Yavaris Nebs are doing as well. There seems to be a large swath of ships that are just a tad too inefficient currently.
the only problem The Victory class has is the same problem every ship and fighter has at speed two, its to slow to force an attack and can only react to being attacked of someone foolishly moving into range.

AFMs are doing pretty well. Nebs not named yavaris are in a similar place to arqs, as are glads not named demolisher.
I do not think FFG will risk another "reskin wave," for the imperial side. I think that another campaign box with new objectives, some uniques for the Squad Pack 2 squadrons and some new titles for the older ships would be well relieved and a good way to update them, but I can hear the internet grumble already if the next wave is another reskin of an existing ship for the Empire. Thrawn can get people to forgive a lot of things, but you can only play the Blue Guy card once...
I don't mind the re-skins. The Empire is supposed to be monolithic, using waves of mass-manufactured ships of the same class.
Rebels are the ones who have had to beg/borrow/steal their ships from anywhere and everywhere.
They should look like a ramshackle collection of ships next to the ubiquitous star destroyers of the Empire.

Glads are actually pretty decent without the demo title....but that demo title is too good to ignore. Most people aren't running more than 1 Glad though. If you want a quick, brawling face puncher for a decent price, you take a glad...and if you take a glad, you take Demo.
Nebs on the other hand...they are near worthless without Yavaris or maybe Salvation. You don't take a Neb and add a title to make it better, you take Yavaris and are just forced to take a Neb to put it on.
