If you really want to bolster up your imperial army but dont really want to buy multiple blister packs of the interceptors these are great for you because you get pilots and upgrades not found in the non ace blisters

If you fly for the Empire, you need this set. Very useful pilots and upgrades, plus you get two very cool repaints, including the TIE interceptor with the bloodstrip for Baron Fel (who comes with the TIE interceptor single pack).

The biggest addition to your fleet is the Royal guard. They will increase your hitting and you'll want to practice your flying as you should be able to get out of the way of your enemies.

Initially I purchased this expansion because it was the easiest way to get ahold of more Interceptors, but there are so many upgrades available that I am glad I did. the models are very detailed, and the unique pilots are a great addition. Adding in the Saber Squadron pilots and Royal Guard Pilots and Title, you can turn these interceptors into monsters of speed and firepower. Well worth the value!

This is a pretty nice expansion. The Royal Guard TIE ship card makes the ships able to add two ship mods which is a nice touch - with Push the Limit and Opportunist you can have a nice little squad going.

Overall, this is a very good expansion. Pros: Excellent paintjobs on the ships; Comes with 2x Push the Limit, a very important upgrade card; Comes with Carnor Jax who is a great pilot; Comes with Royal Guard Pilots, which are also good Cons: The named pilots, other than Carnor Jax, aren't very powerful. Even Carnor Jax is situational because he needs to be in close proximity to enemy ships. This set also comes with 2x TIE Interceptors, which is great if you like that type of ship but not so good if you want more variety (compare this to the Rebel Aces pack, which has an A-wing and a B-wing.) Tip: If you get this, also get the Star Viper expansion, which comes with Autothrusters - a defensive upgrade that would prolong the life of your TIE Interceptors.

Im a big fan of Interceptors! They fly fast and hit hard. I totally recommend an Imperial fan to buy this. A must have for sure.
