Electricity is in the air!

By Scizzler, in X-Wing

Sovereign Class SSD was better than the Eclipse......

A crew of 601k... omg... How many crew slots would that be?

I'm holding out for the Eclipse :lol:

Or, failing that the SDF-1

Holy cow....

Where did that monstrosity come from? Did the Empire actually have enough people to man that thing after losing two Deathstars?

It was retconned to slightly shorter than an SSD.

yea Empire was still strong under Ysanne Isard. And this game IS post Episode-6, Defenders, and E-wings are a beautiful example of that.

Defenders are GCW, only the E-wing is out of place.

It was basically Death Star III, complete with a superlaser. It's from the Dark Empire comics, the same place FFG drew the E-wing from.

The E-wing went on to appear in other stuff and become an EU staple though, the Eclipse... didn't.

over 9 thousand??? :lol: :lol:

Eclipse would be like a Boeing 747 to an X-wing miniature. Sounds doable, I'm in.

I never said Defender WASN'T GCW, however it is post-episode 6, the Wookiee says it came into primary production shortly after Endor

the wookiee lies

Look at it's HWK length.

Yes however, that is a sourced length from the ORIGINAL source it appeared in. It has been retconned lower, like the Eclipse.

*facepalm* I'm an idiot, Defender saw limited production just BEFORE the Battle at Endor. I concede Lago.

again though, the Hwks length was retconned lower. The original source (Dark Forces) lengths it at 29 meters.

How do you explain Darth Vader being alive ?

Edit - I see it has been already pointed out and you acknowledge it. Cheers.

The original source is Dark Forces, which FFG followed.

?? I'm sorry DreadStar?

Lago look at the Hawks talk page. It is explained there.

I'm afflicted with the anxiety, lessssssssgooooo

Ok I looked, originally the Hawk is lengthed at 29 meters, however in Jedi Knight, it is closer to 20 meters. So FFG looked into it and asked Lucasarts. Lucasarts retconned it into 16.5 meters (I think that's the length). However Leland Chee the official person who does the contradictory rulings never came out and said its length. And there is no source other than X-wing that retconned the Hawks length, and since X-wing isn't much of a source, they retain the original length.

I've played all the Dark Forces games; 16 meters is accurate enough.
