Editing Star Wars X-Wing Miniatures Game (section)

==Factions==
Presently, the game is divided among seven factions: Rebellion, Empire, Resistance, First Order, Scum & Villainy, Galactic Republic and Confederacy of Independent Systems. Any ship with a named character piloting it has a unique ability.

If you played the [[/v/|X-Wing and Rogue Squadron games]], you should know what to expect here.

In both short and general: the Rebel fighters are more expensive, but also have stronger hulls, shields are a lot more common and they tend to have an edge in fire power, balanced by cost. The empire ships are typically faster and more maneuverable, and focus on avoiding damage as opposed to tanking it, are cheaper but more frail. Scum and Villainy features elements from both Rebel and Empire ships, along with a talent for dirty tricks and access to unique upgrade options that let them really fuck with opponent ships' stats. The Resistance is the Rebel's taken up a notch being more expensive but ship per ship are even better. The First Order meanwhile is sort of a blending of the Rebelion and old Empire, a middle ground in terms of suitability and firepower. The galactic republic and CIS though are both mirrors of each other, being reliant on internal synergy factions. The difference is that the Republic does it between fewer ships, while the CIS tends to rely on swarms.
