I won't go into great detail because it's really not needed, other's have covered what's in the box. Even though you can get X-Wings in the starter set, you still need 1 X-Wing and one Tie Fighter expansion for the unique pilot cards included. Wedge is only available in this expansion or as promo-cards for playing tourneys and is one fo the better pilots. Garven is also useful, so it's worth the $15 for the expanison, especially since they have been released after a shortage of them for a while.
