Why is there no Xwing for CLS/R2D2

^This

You will hate this, but... if we want to be correct, it would have to be farmboy Luke instead of CLS piloting the X wing. ;)

Still would be awesome.

Eh, I think by the time he started flying CLS was more appropriate, he had the lightsaber, and he had used the force although briefly. Farmboy Luke I think is more ignorant about such things. CLS is basically him after he joined with the Rebels although most of it is ESB stuff.

No ships in this game, just power creep squad arena that exist

Big banner stuff like Luke's X-Wing are rationed and are relevant in the life of the game. Just like it took two years to get R2 and CLS. Over three to get Chewie, 3PO, and the Falcon.

Things like Jedi Luke and Luke's X-Wing will come. Eventually. But they are on no set timetable.

It'd make sense to be a marquee event, requiring Biggs and Wedge, their X wings, and Han and Chewie and their Millennium Falcon as a reinforcement, fighting TIE Advanced and TIE fighters with TIE fighter reinforcements. TIE advanced has a special mechanic that makes it unable to take damage until the TIE fighters are gone, and TIE fighter reinforcements would continue to come in until the Millennium Falcon reinforced. Every 2 turns TIE advanced would 1 shot one of your ships. Enemy capital ship is the death star, which doesn't do much except let them reinforce with TIE fighters, similarly whatever your Capital ship was would just have reinforcement on a 2 turn cooldown, maybe some simple skill, but nothing fancy.

So basically you'd need to survive and kill TIE fighters, maybe get them low but not kill till you reinforce, lose Biggs because he'd taunt and get targeted, Reinforce with the Falcon, kill TIE fighters, then TIE advanced, then "you're all clear kid now let's blow this thing and go home!"

Don't give them ideas. I can see them asking themselves how they could render useless all the investments people will do on the Negotiator and on the upcoming malevolence. Simple: some ship that would dig the falcon back from the grave.
