Imperial Squad Pack: TIE Brute (single mini, 'cause they're chonky), TIE Striker (3 to a base), TIE Reaper (single mini), Xg-1 Star Wing Assault Gunboat (3 to a base).

If/when we get Imperial Squadrons III, I think it's likely to be: TIE Strikers, TIE Brutes, TIE Reaper, and Delta T3c Shuttle; if there's cross-faction potential, maybe drop the Reaper for Alpha-3 Nimbus V-wings. But other than U-wings and maybe K-wings I'm not sure what would go into Rebel Squads III. Maybe cross-faction Auzitucks and ARC-170s?

I think if we do get more squadron packs for the OT content, they'd include ships like the Reaper and the U-Wing, and may well also include non-defence token unique squadrons such as Vanguard and Titan squadrons from the new Squadrons game - it would be cool if this coincided with perhaps new named pilots for X-Wing from the Alphabet Squadron books? So Yrica Quell in an X-Wing (as well as perhaps a TIE fighter), Wyl Lark in an A-Wing, Nath Tensent in a Y-Wing, and Kairos in a U-Wing, and a few of the named Shadow Wing TIE pilots in TIE fighters, like Soran Keize, Gablerone, etc.

I would love to see an Imperial Squadrons III pack with TIE Reapers, Strikers, Brutes, and Punishers; for a Rebel Squadrons III pack, I'd like to see U-Wings, but beyond that, maybe if they went further afield from things that already exist in X-Wing, that would be good...just like Gauntlet Fighters only exist in Armada currently, maybe then can do more of that if they're not going to give us the Gauntlets anytime in the next two waves for X-Wing! ;)

If they're going to do more squadron packs, I'd like to see them do something along the lines of specific fighter packs. So instead of having to buy 4 packs to get 8 squadrons of, say, Z-95s or TIE Defenders, I could just buy one or two TIE Defender or Z-95 packs. Alternatively they could just do half-packs, taking the existing squadron packs, selling half of it at half price, making it easier to only get the fighters you want and not have a ton of clutter left over.
@bradleystevens4618

If there are any additional squadrons for Rebels/Imperials I want to see, it's alt pilots for their Squadron 2 pack squads, similar to Corellian Conflict and RITR for all the other squads. Like maybe Rex or Ahsoka in the Ghost, or Vult Skerris (from Rebels) in a TIE Defender. Also would be great to see a Z95 ace that doesn't need to already be in a swarm of generic Z95s to be a good idea.

The only lists that will be affected by this are the heavy squadron Rieekan and Sloane builds, everything else will stay the same. Y-Wing swarms don't care about this, medium to small fighter coverage builds don't care either (They contain 3-4 aces usually). That, unless they intend to simultaneously increase the cost of aces in general (which can happen considering we know there ARE going to be point adjustments)
@maxwellsilver6032

One Ace per 100 points...does that mean you must have 400 point bid to get four Aces? That's what it sounds like. Not that it matters, most players still only take a few Aces. I haven't seen 134 points for squadrons in a list in quite awhile. I like your Hera idea, she will become more valuable. Maarek and Jendon will still be popular as well.

Well, one complaint I had about Squadrons was that there was no value for me in using generics. And even if I did, there was only one option as an imperial player: TIE Interceptors. This makes it so that we at least have a reason to take generics (aside from the thematic reason that you can't have the best pilots on every fleet at the same time :) If they were to make new squadrons, the only thing I ask is that they sell the cards and cardboard for the Aces in their own pack that we only need to buy one of. Getting duplicate ace cards that you can't use is such a waste.
