Imperial HUGE Ships...I'm Calling It.

By Joe Boss Red Seven, in X-Wing

The Dev's have already said civil war and forwards.

That stilleto corvette does look realllll nice. :D

I kinda like the Customs design better, though. The Stilletto looks like a S&V ship more than an Imperial one.

The lines on the custom do look more Imperial than the Stilleto but it still looks sleek and menacing, no matter who is driving.

They CAN change their mind you know.

I think we'll eventually see old republic and clone wars ships, people used to say there would never see a third faction but look where we are now.

That all depends whether or not they'd get a license for that.

They have the license. The CEO of FFG said in an interview this summer that their Star Wars license covers everything, but for X-Wing they envision the game as Galactic Civil War and forwards.

They could make Clone Wars era stuff if they wanted to. They don't want to.

And cycle back to the truth. Even in the interview where that was said that they were GCW and on, they were pretty dodgy with how they said it. They absolutely left it open ended enough that it is not outside the realm of change. The Dev's are really great designers, no joke no lie, but they aren't all that versed in interview subterfuge.

It's cute when you see them try and scramble to answer some of the more pointed questions, and you can tell when they have a prepared deflection or counterpoint for some others. So sue me, I watch their reactions and body language, and make my own observations.

Also there's a funny tease that was missed at the time of the filming. Start watching at 29minutes. Eventually the one on the left drops the line "It's Unique!" and his designer buddy drops the clue 'Ironic'. I think they had a little inside laugh that all the pilots were uniques LOL :lol:

It's actually the 13th Millennium Falcon. Every few years the Falcon dies and regenerates.

Shouldn't it be called the Millennium Phoenix then?

Stuff like the senatorial shuttle token? That was from the prequels/clone wars.

And it's out of scale, to boot. That Corellian Star Shuttle in ep 1 was ENORMOUS:

... and when I get it on my table with a pair of Decimators and a swarm of Interceptors zooming all round backed up by Defenders... sexy Imperials!!!

Ships from the clone war that are in the game already:

Y-Wings

Z-95s

Firespray 31

CR 90s

Those are just the ships from that era that we've seen on screen in that era. Not even counting the ships from that era that we only saw in the OT.

Consular- class cruiser would be super sexy. Really fun repaint too. Nice simple schemes. 115m One of my faves, happens to be CW era

The rule is:

If it's Star Wars, and the devs know about it, and the devs think it is cool, then they will add it to the game.

So if they're watching Rebels, _and_ like the Gozanti, we'll get one. If they're not watching Rebels, we won't get one. If they hate the Gozer, we won't get one.

(The other part is that they have to come up with cool/interesting things that are thematic for that ship, but not done in the rest of the game.)

Clone wars large ship thread hijacking?

Hey, the Republic was the infant form of the Empire. Ergo, still talking Empire Huges.

Alright, JBR7. What do you think of the Skinny Vigil?

Woot! Page IG-88

Still can have the gozanti!

Ok, It came out in December this year which means someone is gonna be named EPIC predictor!

Still can have the gozanti!

Yes, but it's clear that both the Lancer :( and the Vigil :P are out.
