not enough maneuver dials

By Giddy Gamer, in X-Wing Off-Topic

I have multiples of the TIE and x-wing miniatures, mostly from 1st edition, and there are a limited number of 2nd edition maneuver dials in an Upgrade Kit. (eg: the rebel upgrade kit included only two x-wing dials.) How are people getting more dials for their fleets?

Multiple upgrade kits, or trades I would guess..

Conversion kits only have a certain number of dials to convert over ships. Generally there are at least 2 dials for every ship, and sometimes there are up to 3 or 4 dials if the ship is cheap enough to fill out a squad. For example the x wing gets 2 dials for its 40ish and above price point while the Z-95 gets 4 due to it costing around 26 points.

If you check online there are lists that show the contents of the kits or even youtube videos i guess.

Generally for the 3 original factions if you have 3+ of the ships, the kits won't have enough. The Sequel era kits should have enough dials for whatever you need.

If you only need certain stuff check with your gaming group or with people at a gaming store, ebay, buy another kit, or could print out your own stuff for casual games.
