And yet "X-Wing with a boost and a funky new red maneuver" still isn't going to make X-Wings more than a passing curiosity for most folks before they go back to their fat turret ships, cheap B-Wings, and dual IG-2000's.

Seriously, out of everything that FFG has released in the last couple of months, new upgrades for the TIE Advanced, brand new upgraded TIE Fighters and X-Wings (OMG with Boost and more shields and all my old ships are RUINED FOREVER NOW FFG), you know what's made the most waves? Twin Laser Turret. Nobody gives a shit about the T-70 except people on this wiki griping about power creep. I mean if you really think the T-70 or TIE/fo is so super amazingly awesome that it invalidates older ships then go for it, get some and prove the point to the world at large, dominate some tournaments with your slightly better TIEs and X-Wings and rub it in FFG's face. But I'm pretty sure that outside some novelty builds the wider X-Wing community is going to give the Force Awakens ships a hearty shrug and go right back to using what works.
