Ship numbers

By Big k, in X-Wing

Not sure if this has been discussed or not, but what do people think will be common in 2.0?

Having watched the video where it was 200 points and 5 vs 4, we've seen a 60 point Wedge build and a few other bits and pieces... so are we going to see people commonly taking 3 bad **** expensive aces, decked out large base ships......

I would like to think we'll see a huge variety of builds with 4 ship builds being the norm. Swarms will return, we'll see 3 decked ace builds, 5 ship builds... But I get the feeling 4 ships could be the new black

Pretty sure the point limit and costs were just doubled to give more room flexibility. i assume we'll only see a few major role changes for ships, like maybe the hwk290 or Quadjumper being cheaper by comparison to 1.0 so they are more appetizing add ons to a list.

3 to 8 ships was the norm until the large base ships got too good, so the designers are probably pushing back that way. the falcon should kick teeth in, but it would be cool to see it at 120 points balanced against 4 tie fighters for example. we just have to wait and find out though
