	* '''R1-J5''': Only Initiative 1, so R1 can't use slam to really fly around on ships that have already moved to line up attack runs, additionally as a droid he can't focus, so he can't use proton rockets, and Fireballs lack a targeting computer for heavy weapons. His ability lets you look at your damage cards before you expose them, to try and get the least bad crit effect, but he can't do as much with those slams.

	* '''Kazuda Xiono''':Hay look at this guy I've never heard of. not bad though, if an enemy ship has higher initiative then your damage cards (So at game start 2) your guns do an extra damage. Not bad, but does get worse if she starts takeing hits. Would be better on a less masochist ship. As is, avoid Electronic baffles and avoid getting hit at all cost to keep doing constant damage.		* '''Kazuda Xiono''':Hay look at this guy I've never heard of. not bad though (literally the main character in Star Wars Resistance, so yeah, not heard of), if an enemy ship has higher initiative then your damage cards (So at game start 2) your guns do an extra damage.

	* '''Jarek Yeager''': [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chuck_Yeager\| Wonder who this] [[Original character, do not steal \|guy is named after?]] Anyway, Jarek can push the fireball even farther able to pull off basic red maneuvers even if stressed, and advanced red maneuvers if he's critically damaged. . . and he's in a fireball he WILL be critically damaged, so long as he does not get more then 2 stress tokens.

	The Resistance's heavy bomber was briefly introduced in ''[[Skub\|The Last Jedi]]'' before getting a [[TPK]].

His ability lets him link any action into a white action, treating it as red.

His Flyboy ability has been mixed up so he grants the red action to Range 0-2 friendly instead of himself. Also gets a second charge. It specifies that it only applies to actions performed during that ship's activation, so as to prevent Coordinate tomfoolery.

Mostly awesome, as the ship is maneuverable and responsive enough to be able to avoid firing arcs, but if things go [[not as planned]], low agility is a death sentence for such a fragile ship~~.

			**''Heralds of Hope'' adds Underslung Blaster Cannons to the mix. It's a very weak Range 1 turret that requires a target lock to fire, but it's dirt-cheap and gets bonus attacks against enemies that land in your arc. The turret also lets the T-70 play ball with abilities that rely on friendly turret coverage, like Vennie and Ronith Blario. If you actually want to get shots off with this thing, action economy is a must as well as friendlies with Targeting Synchronizers.

His initiative 1 means that he can do this before anybody else activates. This makes him a great wingman to pilots that would get stressed easily, like Poe Dameron, any A-Wing pilot, or any Scavenged YT-1300 pilot.

His ability allows you to boost for free after you perform a speed 2-, 3- or 4- maneuver and aren't touching another ship, which means he loves the Tech upgrade "Primed Thrusters" which lets you boost or barrel roll even with a small number of stress tokens.		*'''Temmin Wexley (Snap):''' One of Poe's buddies, son of Norra Wexley, he flies recon and likes to go fast.

	Successor to the Rebellion's stunt flyer. The RZ-2 only appeared briefly in ''The Last Jedi'' before Kylo Ren blew up the hangar they were in. The big change is the turret. It can point forward or backward, and it can only be rotated as a red linked action. In the [[fluff]], the RZ-1 cannons are also supposed to rotate, but FFG probably wanted just wanted them to have a mechanical contrast. Who the hell knows? If you ~~were~~ good at zipping the RZ-1 into flanking positions, you will appreciate the versatility the RZ-2's turret offers. It is worth mentioning that because it counts as a turret, you cannot use Outmaneuver's effect, no matter how much it feels like you should. Statwise, it's almost identical to the RZ-1. The only other differences are the blue Bank 3s and tech upgrade slot. Its "Refined Gyrostabilizers" wholly has the effects of the RZ-1's "Vectored Thrusters," just with stuff for the turret added on.		Successor to the Rebellion's stunt flyer.

Had to abandon racing after being diagnosed with Bloodburn and became Leia's personal assistant leading up to the founding of the Resistance. She can rotate her turret (without getting stressed) after fully executing a maneuver. This frees her up to do another action and possibly boost.		*'''Greer Sonnel:''' A race pilot from Pamarthe ([[Sacris\|Space Scotland]]).

			*'''Suralinda Javos:''' Blue paparazzi lady from the ''Poe Dameron'' comic series. Spied against the Resistance before signing on as a janitor and eventually a pilot. When she partially executes a maneuver, she can Strain to rotate 90° or 180°. An amusing choice for a Wing Leader in Epic.
			*'''Wrobie Tyce:''' (''HoH'') The only member of Cobalt Squadron to survive to the end of ''Rise of Skywalker'', also married to Larma D'acy. When she defends at Range 1, she inflicts a Deplete token if the attacker modified their attack dice. Reasonably [[Choppy]]. She definitely appreciates having an ally with M9-G8 fucking with enemy attack dices to increase their pressure to modify.
	*'''L'ulo L'ampar:''' A Duros pilot who flew with Green Squadron in The Battle of Endor. Close friend of Shara Bey and honorary uncle of Poe Dameron. When stressed, he gets +1 attack and -1 agility. Mostly awesome, as the ship is maneuverable and responsive enough to be able to avoid firing arcs, but if things go [[not as planned]], low agility is a death sentence for such a fragile ship. As the 'Luminous Mentor' the squad leader talent is a natural upgrade to give him a red coordinate to stress him and help another ship.		*'''L'ulo L'ampar:''' A Duros pilot who flew with Green Squadron in The Battle of Endor.

	*'''Tallissan Lintra:''' The insanely cute pilot who died too soon in TLJ. Being an escort pilot, she can grant an extra defense die to an ally if the attacker is in her bullseye. Cheaper than the potent L'ulo L'ampar, but definitely safer. Daredevil and Pattern Analyzer can help her get into position.		*'''Tallissan Lintra:''' The insanely cute pilot who died too soon in TLJ.

	*'''Zizi Tlo:''' (''H&A'') TLJ casualty. No other information is available. She has a single recurring charge that can be spent after attacking or defending to gain a focus or evade token. Simple, but awesome, and ~~probably very expensive~~ to ~~field~~.		*'''Zizi Tlo:''' (''H&A'') TLJ casualty. No other information is available.

			*'''Seftin Vanik:''' (''HoH'') A former circus stunt flyer who died at Exegol. When he performs a Boost action, he can transfer an evade token to a Range 1 friendly ship. Seftin definitely benefits from having a lower initiative coordinate if you want to fire his ability off with any frequency.

	A [[Skub\|Sequel Trilogy]] faction introduced in ''The Force Awakens'', basically the Rebel Alliance several decades later. General Organa leads the Resistance in their fight against the First Order, fighting against tyranny for the past three decades. However, in a surprising stroke of realism, most of the senate isn't behind the Resistance fully (in fact, quite a few of them are secretly funding The First Order), and the Resistance technically isn't an arm of the New Republic's military; rather, it's under Leia's personal command as she wages her one woman war on the First Order, funded and clandestinely supported by her allies within the Senate. This is why the Resistance focuses on fighters rather than capital ships, and why they're using the somewhat long in the tooth T-70 X-Wing rather than the flashy new T-85(<s>which we still haven't seen</s> which appeared in the ~~new~~ cartoon, but no one ~~watches~~ it, so no one knows what it looks like).

	*'''Jaycris Tubbs:''' One of the first X-Wing pilots killed in ''The Last Jedi'', he's actually pretty decent here. When he completes a blue maneuver, one nearby friendly can shave off a stress. His initiative 1 means that he can do this before anybody else activates. This makes him a great wingman to pilots that would get stressed easily, like Poe Dameron, any A-Wing pilot, or any Scavenged YT-1300 pilot. Giving him a BB Unit can help get him in a better position before pulling off the needed blue maneuver.		*'''Jaycris Tubbs:''' One of the first X-Wing pilots killed in ''The Last Jedi'', he's actually pretty decent here.

			*'''Nimi Chireen:''' (''HoH'') Pilot who was held in reserve until after The Battle of Crait, [[Derp\|which means she wasn't included in Leia's SOS]]. Init 2, gets to turn one blank into an eyeball when attacking somebody whose initiative is higher than hers. She's definitely better if somebody is passing actions her way. She should always be focused, ideally with a target lock to pick up the slack.
	*'''Lieutenant Bastian:''' The excitable, black dude who flew over Starkiller Base. He can acquire a free target lock on any ship, friendly or hostile, after they take damage. M9-G8 seems to be made with Bastian in mind.		*'''Lieutenant Bastian:''' The excitable, black dude who flew over Starkiller Base.

	*'''Jessika Pava''': The cute female T-70 pilot, apparently associated with Tierfon Yellow Aces. Her ability rewards formation flying, allowing you to reroll an attack or defense die for each other allied ship at range 1 of you. She can do this once per round by herself, but she can spend charges from her astro droid to do it multiple times, if needed.		*'''Jessika Pava''': The cute female T-70 pilot, apparently associated with Tierfon Yellow Aces.

	*'''Kare Kun:''' Prominent character in the ''Poe Dameron'' comic series, married Snap Wexley. When Boosting, she can use a hard 1 turn in either direction instead of just a straight 1 or soft 1 bank.		*'''Kare Kun:''' Prominent character in the ''Poe Dameron'' comic series, married Snap Wexley.

	*'''Temmin Wexley:''' ~~AKA, "Snap."~~ One of Poe's buddies, son of Norra Wexley, he flies recon and likes to go fast. Survived TFA and TLJ, but not ROS. Way to trip at the finish line, [[Fa/tg/uy\|fat boy]]. His ability allows you to boost for free after you perform a speed 2-, 3- or 4- maneuver and aren't touching another ship, which means he loves the Tech upgrade "Primed Thrusters" which lets you boost or barrel roll even with a small number of stress tokens.		*'''Temmin Wexley (Snap):''' One of Poe's buddies, son of Norra Wexley, he flies recon and likes to go fast.

			*'''Temmin Wexley (Black Two):''' (''HoH'') Snap again, as he is in ''Rise of Skywalker''. He allows any number of friendly T-70s Range 0-3 to flip their S-Foil card at the start of Engagement Phase at the cost of getting Strain. Pretty useful as a wingmate in Epic.
			*'''C'ai Threnalli:''' (''HoH'') Ello Asty made a very brief reappearance in ''The Force Awakens'' after his onscreen death. When the error was noticed, he was just declared to be a different abednedo who went on to survive Episodes 8 and 9. In XMG, he's Init 4 No Talent. When executes a full maneuver that goes through a friendly ship, he can perform an Evade action.
	*'''Black Squadron Ace:''' Like Red Squadron Expert, but higher cost and initiative if you really need a high init generic.		*'''Black Squadron Ace:''' Like Red Squadron Expert, but higher cost and initiative if you really need a high init generic.
	*'''Ello ~~Atsy~~''': An alien pilot who bites it in the run on Starkiller base. His ability allows him to treat his T-roll maneuvers as white so long as he isn't too stressed, so he can drift with the best of them. Put Outmaneuver on him to make the First Order Weep.		*'''Ello Asty''': An alien pilot who bites it in the run on Starkiller base.

	*'''Nien Nunb''': Everybody's favorite Falcon co-pilot and resident Sullustan, Nien is back as a T-70 pilot. His ability allows him to instantly shed stress so long as there is an enemy in his firing arc at Range 1 when he gets the token, thus making him ideal for any kind of build which might self-stress.		*'''Nien Nunb''': Everybody's favorite Falcon co-pilot and resident Sullustan, Nien is back as a T-70 pilot.

	*'''Poe Dameron:''' The new leader of the elite X-Wing forces (although his fighter is black and orange) and their top ace, laying waste to a dozen ties in a single battle and destroying Starkiller base (the First Order's Death Star, made from a planet). His ability lets him link any action into a white action, treating it as red. B[[B8\|B-8]] pushes him to 11 because he can reveal a blue maneuver, perform BB-8's move, link it to a red action, perform the blue maneuver, lose stress, then do the normal action.		*'''Poe Dameron (Trigger-Happy Flyboy):''' The new leader of the elite X-Wing forces (although his fighter is black and orange) and their top ace, laying waste to a dozen ties in a single battle and destroying Starkiller base (the First Order's Death Star, made from a planet). His ability lets him link any action into a white action, treating it as red.

			*'''Poe Dameron (Resistance Commander):''' (''HoH'') Post-TLJ Poe is a little older, wiser, and more commander-y; that is, if you don't count that moment in the Battle of Exegol where he just announced to his subordinates that he had officially given up any hope of victory. His Flyboy ability has been mixed up so he grants the red action to Range 0-2 friendly instead of himself. Also gets a second charge. It specifies that it only applies to actions performed during that ship's activation, so as to prevent Coordinate tomfoolery. He still syncs well with friendly BB units and Nien Nunb can be hilarious if you land him right.

	* '''Colossus Station Mechanic''': Standard pilot, but can't take full advantage of Explosion with Wings since it's Initiative is only a piddly 2, so it can't pull out maneuvering shenanigans on anybody of note, but of course they can slam to get out of trouble easily enough. Combos well with ability's that let you look at enemy ship dials.		* '''Colossus Station Mechanic''': Standard pilot, but can't take full advantage of Explosion with Wings since it's Initiative is only a piddly 2, so it can't pull out maneuvering shenanigans on anybody of note, but of course they can slam to get out of trouble easily enough.

	* '''R1-J5''': Only Initiative 1, so R1 can't use slam to really fly around on ships that have already moved to line up attack runs, additionally as a droid he can't focus, so he can't use proton rockets, and Fireballs lack a targeting computer for heavy weapons. His ability lets you look at your damage cards before you expose them, to try and get the least bad crit effect, but he can't do as much with those slams.

	* '''Kazuda Xiono''':Hay look at this guy i've never heard of. not bad though, if an enemy ship has higher initiative then your damage cards (So at game start 2) your guns do an extra damage. Not bad, but does get worse if she starts takeing hits. Would be better on a less masochist ship. As is, avoid Electronic baffles and avoid getting hit at all cost to keep doing constant damage.		* '''Kazuda Xiono''':Hay look at this guy I've never heard of. not bad though, if an enemy ship has higher initiative then your damage cards (So at game start 2) your guns do an extra damage.

So basically Jarek can pull off two red moves in a turn if he has to pull a U turn to get into position.		* '''Jarek Yeager''': [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chuck_Yeager\| Wonder who this] [[Original character, do not steal \|guy is named after?]] Anyway, Jarek can push the fireball even farther able to pull off basic red maneuvers even if stressed, and advanced red maneuvers if he's critically damaged. . . and he's in a fireball he WILL be critically damaged, so long as he does not get more then 2 stress tokens.
