The Quick Build cards included in the X-Wing Core Set and every ship expansion give you a way to quickly assemble a squadron and get flying right away. Each of these cards provide pre-defined selections of pilots and upgrades, combined with a threat level that represents the approximate strength of that ship. For a normal game, players choose cards with a total of eight threat. These Quick Build cards also make it easy for you to play a simple escalation variant, choosing ships with greater threat as your ships on the battlefield are destroyed!
Note that Quick Builds do not have to follow the Squad Building rules (the point-buy system), meaning a quick build might instruct you to equip a ship with an upgrade when the ship doesn't have that upgrade slot. The Fang Fighter might equip Afterburners despite not having a modification slot, for example.
Click on the ship names to see the full Quick Build Cards for that ship.
