Star Wars: X-Wing - TIE Fighter Expansion Pack (Last Chance)

Product Review (submitted on October 2, 2015):

The classic TIE Fighter is an interesting ship. On its own, it is weak and not likely to do much for your squad list (especially if it is a low-point game). When part of a swarm, this ship becomes deadly, fast.

Included with this expansion are two quality pilots - Howlrunner and Backstabber. Howlrunner, in particular, caters to swarm lists as her ability plays off of keeping a tight formation. As with other FFG expansions to X-wing, the miniature is of a high quality and the pilots add great options for list building. My only gripe is the lack of different upgrades for the TIEs - apart from "Swarm," it is the same 'Determination" that's in the core.
