I would have to say that my favorite and absolutely the most fun ship and pilot for me is Soontir Fel in the Tie Interceptor with Push the Limits. There is nothing like going last and moving right into many enemies zone of fire to roll to the side and boost and watch the opposing players face drop as Soontir can not only not be shot at now, but his is 3mm from Wedge all the way in the back and at range one throwing 4 dice. This happened to me and it was exhilarating.
The Most Fun Pilots and Ship in Star Wars X-Wing
Turr Phennir is pretty fun, shoot then barrel roll out of arc. I think individually the ships with more maneuvers and a movement action are most enjoyable. The a-wing's lack of punch ruins the fun when compared with the interceptor though.
The real fun for me in this game is coordinating multiple ships though; approach in formation, attack, break, reform and repeat. Poetry.
iv had the most fun with darth vader + engine upgrade. much like Soontir moving last, barrel rolling and boosting or focus firing or target locking then firing is very cool.
I really love any of the squints with ptl, just the breadth of movement you have and the number of surprises you can pull is excellent. If Tycho had a barrel roll he would probably make it into my top spot. Though I have been meaning to run Vader with an engine upgrade, I think it would be fun.
Hands down the most fun pilot to fly
Vader (29) + Engine Upgrade (4) + Daredevil (3) = 36 pts
Are only imperials fun to play?
Seems like it
I love Firesprays because they're just so customizable! But the best is droppinfg the Seismic Charges when the opponent least expects it.
Wedge is great to play with if you throw on the correct upgrades. I'm not saying which though. Wedge for the Win!

yeah wedge + PTL + r2atromech = fun times
My favorite is definitely Vader. PtL on him and Engine upgrade, boost, barrel roll, and focus...he does work.
I think Imps are the most fun because of the range of maneuvers they can do with Barrel roll and Boost, instead of just boost.
With the B-wing out soon however, i expect it to change a bit for me to Ibtisam + PtL + Engine Upgrade + Advanced Sensors. You can boost and Barrel Roll before you move, or after you move. You do it before you move, then you do a green maneuver and you lose your stress instantly. Just a humongous range of options
Yeah, the Rebels aren't as fun because they are like tugboats while the Empire has speedboats. What is fun is the damage the rebel ships bring. They just can maneuver though.

As long as the b-wings have 3 or 4 greens this combo will see the table soooooo often with me. I am so pumped for a rebel ship with a barrel roll.
What about giving Engine Upgrade to Backstabber, or Engine Upgrade and Push the Limit to Mauler Mithel? Basically, Engine Upgrades are awesome! ![]()
Another vote here for Soontir + PTL. ![]()
For the Rebels, Marksmanship on Wedge is pretty cool.
My vote is for Wedge/R2-D2, Han/Chewie and Gunner, both ships and with this crew are a good combination, greettings.
I'm a fan of high risk/reward strategies. Mauler Mithel really appeals to me for some reason, Expose optional.

+engine upgrade
The ship that is the most fun to fly is the interceptor for sure.
