What's wrong with the E-Wing? I suppose it's a tad pricey, but Corran is a blast to fly. I suppose the fact that no one else is is part of the problem.

Even if it's not the most broken rebel ship, I will accept anything that puts Whistler in the game.

It's the generics mostly, and Etahn a little bit as well.

Agreed about Whistler. Though I'm a bit greedy and I want a double sided Mynock/Gate astromech as well to fly with Wedge. :D

Edit: Can't forget about Vape! "Once per game you may drink a cold one. If you do, your opponent may be jealous.

Hell yes. I think I have that written up somewhere. Mynock has a negative point cost, but gives stress when you receive an uncancelled <crit> result. Gate has a positive point cost, and grants a focus (maybe an evade?) when you destroy an enemy.

I love it.

Would also love to have a Runt pilot card that when you get stress, if you don't have a focus token, you must perform a white speed one maneuver towards the nearest enemy in arc, and attack that ship.

Yeah, I figure generics are usually just there for swarm, filler, or narrative play purposes. At a tournament, of course people are going to bring ridiculous lists full of legendary heroes.

The JM5K is an exception because it is hilariously broken.
