New X-Wing Pilots Previewed by FFG

Fantasy Flight offers a new glimpse of their upcoming large ships. Unlike the last preview of the Tantive IV, this one looks at the slightly smaller Rebel Transport.

Though I am still not fully convinced of those large ships in X-Wing, this one might be a bit more tempting.

• First, because it is not quite as huge as the Tantive IV.
• Second, because it comes with an additional X-Wing, along with new pilot cards, giving it some mileage even in regular games.

#2 – Thoughts?

The big appeal, of course, is to add Porkins to your squad. A nice treat for X-Wing (or any Star Wars) fan.

Another interesting addition is a “named” pilot with a mere skill of 3. That, too, is a first, I think?

Is that enough to get over the sticker-shock of ~50 quid? Probably not (despite having a bought an Imperial Knight for ~ 80 GBP). Time will tell.
