I was wondering if there was a website I could go to to make my own personal pilot cards for home games for the TIE Interceptor and X-wing. I figured, seeing as how I love both fighters, and I fly both proficiently in the X-wing/TIE Fighter games, I deserved a personal card to use in the game.

Nothing too overpowered, just something that could be in line with the other pilots in the game. I still want "me" to end up on the casualty list if he were to blow up due to unforseen asteroi-- I mean, circumstances.

I don't really want people making the card for me, as I know a lot of you are busy with your stuff and things, and I don't want to be a distraction.

This is a fairly simple web-based tool:

Alternatively, you could download Strange Eons . More powerful, but more work. I highly recommend checking out Hinnyboy 's work. He built a plugin for Strange Eons for use in X-Wing. It can be found here .

EDIT:

This sounded familiar, so I tracked down this thread . A lot of very useful information in there, as well as many examples of player's designing their own cards.

If you have access to Photoshop you can also use the templates these guys made:

One of the fonts used there has to be purchased so I'd just use the font Orbitron which is available for free and looks almost the same.

Let me explain their abilities...

In the TIE Fighter game, I loved using the TIE Interceptor. With the proper speed, she's a killer. And she can also evade those damned Y-wings with relative ease, perform a perfect Koiogran Turn and drop on the target's aft and sink her teeth into him/her. Hence the 1 additional defense dice thing.

In X-wing, I would turn the thrust to about 34%, and usually that would get me hit. Alot. So I put the shield power into Engines and Weapons and went nuts. Haven't been shot down yet, and I don't plan to be.
