Re: X-Wing
Don't buy expansions just for upgrade cards unless you need them for tournament play. I just print out extra upgrade cards & pilot cards (because I wanted to play Porkins & Hobbie & Wes without having to buy the Rebel Transport).

Re: X-Wing
Where are printable versions found? I found a pilot cards file on BGG with Rebels and Imps (no S&V). I'm not sure if it's up to date for the Rebel and Imp pilots. I did not see anything with upgrade cards.

Re: X-Wing
I used a photo-editing software (GIMP) to paste the cards I wanted in a document. This webpage has the cards sorted by expansion, but it hasn't been updated recently. The X-Wing Wiki has the rest of the cards. It takes a decent amount of time but if you're familiar with GIMP or Paint.net or Photoshop it's pretty simple. Just reduce the size of the card image until it overlaps the template.
I'm fairly certain Hellfire sent me the original templates to size the cards correctly, so props to him.
Spoiler Alert!

That said, it would be sweet if Fantasy Flight ever releases card sets. As the game continues to expand, it would be really helpful to be able to get upgrades you want without having to buy extra models. But I'm sure they're selling enough ships the way it is that there's no real incentive for them to do that. |

Re: X-Wing
There's a Store Championship near me at the end of this month that Im really thinking about going. Ive played less than 10 games so Im mainly going just for the chance to play some games and have fun. However, Id still like to be some what competitive and not be a complete push over. So whats a fun/easy/competitive build I could take out of 3x Core +wave 1&2 no Interceptor?
Peace is a lie, there is only passion. Through passion, I gain strength. Through strength, I gain power. Through power, I gain victory. Through victory, my chains are broken. The Force shall free me. |

There's a lot to keep track of and a lot that can go wrong. Quickly. I've seen people do well with three x-wings (Biggs, Luke, and Wedge) and it's much easier to manage IMO. Or a large ship with some support can be a lot of fun too. I definitely appreciate the TIE Swarm, I just think it can look easier than it is to really be competitive. |

Re: X-Wing
You could try a Falcon plus 2 X-wings. It used to be a really popular archetype before the Han + Corran or Han + 3 Z-95s started appearing everywhere.

But really, it comes down to your playstyle. I like swarms and outgunning my opponent. And Rebels and Scum. TIE swarms would do good, and can be fun if you like that. Though it's tricky to stay within range 1 of Howlrunner, if you decide to run her with them. Triple X-Wings can be fun as well, but can also be tricky to fly to stay in formation and reduce the heat Biggs has to take. A Fat Han with support will do well. With those expansions though, it may be better to go with a Han that can kill stuff quickly. I don't think you'd have enough to make a Fat Han. I would suggest to make something that you'll have fun flying. You'll probably be facing a lot of Scum builds, and a few TIE interceptors. |

We should organize a game at GenCon sometime. Looks like we already have an idea what our base builds will be. I haven't see a swarm with Shuttle. Shuttles are hard to move (unless ZoomShuttle). Though a DoomShuttle with a TIE swarm would be interesting. |
