Vic-2 frigate! I'm feeling it guys. It could work.and still be really thematic!
Imperial HUGE Ships...I'm Calling It.
Escort carrier could work too i think id rather that one to the customs fork.

It's still really damned wide. But it could work, maybe.
Okay these are quick dirty and rough but it gives the idea. The black square is your 3ft game area.
1/270
1/500
And Mel's sliding scale from now on know as the Mel effect!
FFG might do more of their scale biz on it.
Sure its big but is it too big?
Though this is coming from the guy who's thinking over the six foot victory class idea.
Yeah... just like a DAT!

Yeah but all of this stuff is cool Sir Lack-stir-earl-of-fuss.
from page 274 of Age of Rebellion Core Rulebook:
VIGIL-CLASS CORVETTE
Produced by Kuat Drive Yards for the Imperial Navy, the Vigil-class corvette is the smallest vessel in the iconic Star Destroyer class of ships. Lightly armed and armored, it shares the dagger-shaped hull and large crew of its larger siblings, and operates as both a picket and reconnaissance vessel as well as an escort ship for larger, cruisersized ships. Their command decks sit flush with the hull, all the way aft over the main drive thrusters. This gives the Vigil-class a smaller silhouette and protects the crew better than the tall, exposed control towers found on larger KDY vessels. For its primary armament, the Vigilclass carries a trio of turret-mounted heavy turbolasers on the dorsal hull, giving it quite a heavy punch for so small a vessel. In addition, smaller turbolaser turrets are scattered over the ship's hull along with smaller, antistarfighter laser cannons. Thanks to their size and role, these vessels rarely serve in the line of battle with larger types of Star Destroyers. Instead, they patrol trade routes, serve as battlegroup leaders for small, backwater fleets, and operate as lone cruisers among the fringes of the Inner and Outer Rim, battling pirates and smugglers and rooting out Alliance agents.

In other words it is perfect for the game... it would be in these EPIC 300 and 900 point scenarios... a lot, because that is what it does!

It is all cool. Most things in star wars truly are.
FFG says they listen to the community and the Gonzanti and Vigil seem to be the popular choices.
I don't have anything against the lancer its a proud virile ship that always thrusts itself into the faces of the enemies of the empire!
A real man's ship!
We salute you Lancer! May you sow the seeds of the empire where ever you fly!
Seriously though I just feel the lancer while still just as big as the Vigil would be an underwhelming choice.
Whats so epic about a ship that lacks turbo lasers? Turbo lasers are the empires bread and butter!
BREAD AND BUTTER!
If they can produce a reasonably sized Vigil and reasonably costed I agree they may listen but they would be silly to just listen to us as we are lets be frank the hardcore!
this is the exact reason why I think they say they read this and they may but really don't think they listen when they look at the reality. The first thing they probably get done for any new ship is mock up models and costings and put it on a gaming table see if it's playable and if the cost is reasonable.
But don't get me wrong it looks epic and I hope they find a way around actually making it.

I dunno judging from some of the things their putting out there its like our hard core is their breakfast yogurt.
If you watch the team covenant interview with Christian Petersen when he talks about star wars that's the look of a man who wants to drop spoilers and knows he's gona make a lot of money.

Ah, I 'member that mission. Delivering Bacta supplies to the Rebels. Everything's going nicely, until...
"It's an Imperial Deuce and supporting vessels on an attack vector! We haven't got a chance against that! All ships - prepare to evacuate!"
Good times.
Oh, my bad - it was Carracks in Mission 6, not Lancers...

One minor thing is wrong: Those Ties should be able to dock on their hatches - or the pilots can't get inside.

0o ... Do you want the Tie Pilots fly upside-down?
I sense ... you are a Rebel
CATCH HIM!
Oh and the cannon at the top should have dual barrels.... ah whatever. It looks great Mel, you really captured the paint scheme and look so **** well. I really want one of these.
Yes, I know, the top cannon should be double and on the belly there shouldnt be the two radar dishes that the other Gozanti has.
Well, it seems that this thread is picking up speed. Probably because of the complete lack of news this week.
The Gozanti shown is fantastic. I'm confident that FFG will deliver on this one, just you wait!
edit:ha! one more page! pg 100 here we come!
