More imperial pilots?

Scum conversion kit

4 medium bases, 4 medium base stands, 52 ship tokens, 39 maneuver dials, 23 ship ID tokens, 99 ship cards, 167 upgrade cards, 1 condition card, 7 turret arc tokens and 31 various other tokens.

Pilot card to dial ratio: 2.53

Rebel conversion kit

4 medium bases, 4 medium base stands, 43 ship tokens, 37 maneuver dials, 23 ship ID tokens, 84 ship cards, 162 upgrade cards, 2 condition cards, 8 turret arc tokens, and 23 various other tokens.

Pilot card to dial ratio: 2.27

Imperial conversion kit

2 medium bases, 2 medium base stands, 48 ship tokens, 34 maneuver dials, 21 ship ID tokens, 93 ship cards, 153 upgrade cards, 2 condition cards, 6 turret arc tokens, and 41 various other tokens.

Pilot card to dial ratio: 2.73

So based on these numbers, Scum and Imperials will receive more pilots than the Rebels, for their individual ships, and Imperials have the highest ratio of them all.

So maybe Imps get more generics? Maybe Imps keep most of their pilots? What's up with this?

Imperial bias!

well, imperials lost the most ships so they kinda had to make up by giving us new pilots.

Rebels lost 2.1 ships (T70, Res Bomber, Rebel Nym)
Imps lost FIVE SHIPS (TIE/fo, TIE/SF, Silencer, Upsilon Shuttle, Firespray)

Scum lost nothing.

Yeah, they better give us a bunch of new pilots.

TIE Fighters have the most unique pilots in 1.0 with 10. If that continues into 2.0, then that's what's skewing the ratio.

The need for generics also leads to the belief that is padding numbers. They shorted Awings one generic and it’s a 3 ship pull for rebels, their only one. Imps, half the package is 3 ship converts. They hopefully included more generics.
