The Most Fun Pilots and Ship in Star Wars X-Wing

Recommended Posts

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.

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.

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.

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

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.
