The official scale for the X-Wing game is 1/270; going by the Wookieepedia the millennium Falcon is 34.37mts long (112.8ft) so the scale model is about 5in; in the other hand, the Executor class has a 19km length, about 12 miles which translate on a 230ft long scale model ship geez… can this thread be more geek ;D

Colonel Jendon and Captain Yorr piloted TIE Defenders at the Battle of Endor. I hope the use of these pilots on shuttles doesn't mean they won't end up in TIE Defenders.

Those Imperial Aces seem fun, I like that they clearly defined the profile for the two type of pilots, good at maneuvers for Saber Sqd and very aggressive for Royal Guard pilots, still I'm really curious on the upgrade cards they will include in this boxset Also very exited to see Tom joining the Xwing universe, I'm sure he is already thinking on a way to make an armor car list equivalent for X-Wing

In a previous preview they did show the upgrade cards. I remember an Imperial Guard title that allows the use of 2 modifications on an interceptor and a modification card that increases the hull points by 1. There was also an elite pilot skill, Oportunist, that allowed an increase to the rate of fire. Can't remember if there were others...

I thing the most interesting part for me about the medium transport is the additional X-wing pilots it comes with, it's going to be $60, but I'm sure will get at least one
by the way, wave 4 has been announced - Z-95 Headhunter - E-Wing - TIE Defender - TIE Phantom
All of those ships will be released on Q2 (Apr-Jun) along with the Tantive IV; it is going to be a sweet summer!!
