I'm guessing not much will be revealed until GenCon.  I'll be watching though!

Almost a guarantee to have TIE Bomber and B-Wing I'd guess, apart from that maybe Z-95, but don't know what else for the Imperials really.

Rumors have it Wave 3 will contain upgrade cards. That being said I believe they will maybe only release the TIE bomber and B-wing with wave 3, and hopefully a senators shuttle, proximity mine, and astroid models, just for giggles.

I could see a Lambda shuttle as an additional "large ship", but I don't know what the corresponding Rebel ship might be. Maybe a YT-2400?

Great, kid! Don't get cocky!

B-Wing and Bomber are pretty much given. I wouldn't be surprised if a Death Star type turret ends up in Wave 3.  I really hope FFG doesn't add the Headhunter; it's old and inferior to the X- Wing.

I like the first two…there almost a given. Gun tower would be fantastic and T-4 Shuttle…could be both Imperial and Rebel. The Headhunter at this point would disappoint me but later would be fine.

  • 4 X-wing
  • 3 Y-wing
  • 3 A-wing
  • 1 YT-1300
  • 9 TIE fighters
  • 3 TIE Adv.
  • 3 TIE Intercepter
  • 1 Firespray 31

You don't want the Z-95 because its old and inferior? Okay lets remove the Y-wing, Firespray, and YT-1300 since all these ships are inferior and old compared to the modern starfighters. 

The Z-95 easily can fill a role of a cheap fighter with shields and missiles that the Rebels can use and its also one of the most recongizable EU fighters of all time alongside the Tie Defender, and YT-2400.

One option for a second Wave 3 Imperial ship I thought of would be the Chiss Clawcraft, though I don't know how well that would fit in with the timeline, or if different enough from the TIE Interceptor to be worth it.

The only concrete "rumor" I've seen is the card art for the Homing Missiles card.

I would gess for Tie-bombers, B-wings and a new starter for battle of Hoth, with 2 Speeders 1 AT-AT and tokens for AT-STs and Turrets, and rules for air to ground combat.

2 - Core sets
1 - X-Wing
1 - Y-Wing
1 - Tie Figther
2 - Tie Advanced
2- A-Wings
1 - Milennium Falcon
1 - Slave-I

I love this Idea but would love to see models Instead of tokens for the AT-STs and Turrets.

 

Two fighters against a star destroyer?!

Since B Wing and Tie Bomber seem to be the selection for most players to see in Wave 3.

 

I'm going to add Dash Rendar's Outrunner to the list, but since it would be a large bases ship, I doubt it would make the cut.

Yeah but theres no minis for these "modern starfighters" while there is a X-Wing mini.  I don't want a z95 mini when the superior X-Wing mini exists.

With their RPG debuting with Edge Of The Empire, and the LCG about to get "Scum & Villainy"/"Smugglers and Spies," it wouldn't surprise me if they added a Neutral faction at some point. 

It's all just farts in an airlock until they announce something though.

I would love to see a TIE Defender or the Assualt Missile Boat.
