Lol. We'll see what I need. I plan on buying a case and some singles soon.

Sounds like a plan. Let me know how you make out.

Yeah. I found a remarkable number of singles from a seller on ebay, from whom (I whom is correct, lol) I have bought SWM before.
Btw, would you mind posting the stats for the TIE Fighter and Vulture Droid? I couldn't find those anywhere either, and I'm intrigued by their Infinite thing.

Whom is used with indirect objects - so yes, that's correct.
Infinite just means that they can be deployed endlessly - they have poor defense, but their job is just to harass. You play them differently than typical fighters, because instead of having to conserve them like with regular fighters, you can just send them in on suicide runs, and then, even when they get taken out, you're fine, because they just respawn in the capital ships. Really, the job for the Vultures and the TIEs are to keep fire off of the capital ships - because if the capital ships get destroyed, no more fighters can be deployed.

Good to know.
Huh. Don't they cost a lot more than normal fighters too?

No. They don't, because their stats are so terrible.

So what do TIE Fighters cost? 3, 4? Are those Techno Union Fighters that cost 2 points any good? I'm thinking of buying some singles of those, because they cost so little.

I believe they cost 5 even. And, I wouldn't bother with the TUF, because the Vultures have infinite.

Hmm good point. I'll probably get a few in a case anyway.
So, which ships do you think are the best for the DS and LS? Which ships are good to from a basis for the DS and LS fleets? I know some good ships, like the Invisible Hand and ISDs/TF Battleships for the DS, but beyond that I know very little.

Well, you need both Class 1s - they're always a good base for a fleet. Star Destroyers are pretty darn good, as are the Venators. Unique capital ships are always good, the Home One is a nice choice.

Post by bountyhunter9 on Nov 23, 2009 15:26:07 GMT -5
Yeah. I'll get them in the starter set. It's too bad the best Class 2s are so expensive - Venators are like 14 bucks each and Star Destroyers are even more. The IH and TF Battleships are relatively cheap.
What are the stats for Home One?

I don't own her. But aparrently, she's one of the better ships there is. No one'll trade her away, either.

Post by bountyhunter9 on Nov 23, 2009 18:41:40 GMT -5
Huh. I think I saw her for like 8-10 bucks on ebay. The seller I'm interested in buying from has 50/60 of the ships. For very good prices too, at least compared to the rest of SWM.

It turned out to be a bad deal: the second, larger lot went for about $210.00 USD. Now I'm kicking myself that I didn't wait.
