The Empires BEST Ship Is: ______

By Joe Boss Red Seven, in X-Wing

TIE Fighter.

It's obviously the humble academy pilot in his tie, that simple cheap ship has won many a game.

Hard question, but I'd have to go with the Firespray. I personally like it a lot so may be biased.

I like the Tie Defender :-o It just took an entire squads worth of fire for me leaving my Tie Fighters to wreck face... I finished a 150 point game with 70 points of unscathed ships left... and if Corran Horn hadn't had a couple of lucky double attack turns it would have been even better.

Plus its also the best looking ship by far I think :P

Tough question. The Tie fighter is amazing at 12 points and at 18 you get the hands down best pilot ability. The Firespray is also incredibly good for 33 points and Krassis for 36 is a steal. Edge to Tie fighter but just barely.

I don't know if Howlrunner is all that good now. With Predator if you got an EPT you can have Howls ability without the formation. Also, swarms are getting less play.

Frankly I think Cracken might be better.

I do agree that the Firespray is hard to beat at 33 points. It can be tanky and dodgey. Its a bit hard to fly expertly and I still land her on rocks.

You ain't alone Star Brother... you ain't alone.

When I want a named ship: Fett or Vader.

When I am topping off a list: TIE/ln

For 'saber dance' value: Interceptor

Best generic in terms of meta efficiencies: stock Firespray.

...And the one I bought the most of because they are just plain fun: Space Cows.

Type O Demon!

Me too but its hard explaining the fin indentations.

It's the Phantom. Not even close.

Interceptors, because you can have four ps 6 with 3 attack aaaaannd ptl.

Ain't it great?

I will have ten this year... got six now, but I need to get two more of the IMP Aces, after Wave Five.
