Really love this game, played it a couple of weekends in a row with the brother in law now. Wish Wayland would hurry up with my Y-wing and Tie advanced i ordered a month ago though, really want to experiment with the different ships!

Just ordered the starter set for Ethan for his birthday. What initial expansions would you recommend beyond this?

Depends which ships you like, Y-wing seems good, Falcon performed great for me, another X-wing wouldn't go a miss....
We played 125 points last night, Which got me Han in the Falcon, Wedge in a X-wing, generic X-wing and Y-wing. The game lasted roughly 1 1/2 hours i think
So maybe a good start point might be Starter set, Y-wing and Tie advanced?
Then you get to experiment with a couple of different ships and see what you think of the game before going all in?

It is a really fun and easy to get hold of game, nothing to complex which is a good thing! My first game was against brother in law who doesn't wargame and he really enjoyed the game. So much so he went straight to Amazon to get a starter set and all 4 expansions that were out at the time.
Falcon is a beast, 360 degree firing arc, lots of shields and armour.
