Good: Since the X-Wing is (about) 32 studs wide, the 'Trench Set' comes
with 1 gray 32x32 baseplate, 6 rectangular BURPS, and enough bricks to
fill in the gaps (and maybe even build a turbo cannon[1] tower).
Bad: 1 gray baseplate and 10 1x6x5 dark gray bricks.
Never thought I'd call BURPS good... ;)

[1] I am probably totally wrong about the name of these weapons. But
you know what I mean, I hope.
