So first, I just want to say that I am very surprised they actually announced the S&V faction and not a huge Imperial ship. I'm excited at the options that it now brings to the table (and now wonder if we will see a Sith faction). I was starting to think they might announce it next year and an Imperial huge ship this year, meaning I'd lose the wager.

So, it turns out WonderWAAAGH is a pretty good sport about it. I sent him a message and gave him the opportunity to back out (if he can't or won't fulfill) and he will carry out the wager! Upstanding gentleman (assuming gender, I apologize if I am wrong)!

This is where you, the community, come in.

The most appropriate choice would be one of the new S&V faction ships. I thought it would be fun to let the community decide. Go ahead and post your vote here. The ship that looks the most interesting to me is the Star Viper (Virago).

EDIT: It must be a ship from wave 6.

I'm super excited about the new faction and I hope everyone else is as well. Hopefully, in thinking about your vote, you will get as excited as I am.

What were the terms of the bet?

Loser buys the winner 1 small ship of his/her chosing.

By that, that means 1 $15 MSRP ship. I tolder Wonder that if the community chose a ship/pack with an MSRP higher than $15, I would pay the difference of Coolstuffinc's price. For example, I'd chip in $5 if CSI's price is $20.

You're getting a TIE Advanced.

You know that, right?

LOL!

No. Just. No.

I have 3 of those turds and I will override the community if that ends up being the case.

M3-A

EDIT: It must be a ship from wave 6.

I don't need any more Advanced ships.

Pffft. You're no fun.

If you're already willing to make up the difference for a StarViper, why not go all the way and pick up the IG-2000? It's looking super slick in the photos, and one imagines it will be the centerpiece to many SaV lists.

I will pick up the difference for any of the wave 6 stuff, including the reprint of the Z95 and Y-Wing.

Star Viper!

or the S&V 'core' for a 'discount'

Hell, get the M3-A. Looks like a nice little fighter that will be on par with the TIE with, hopefully, lots of customization options. Besides, it's the best looking S&V new ship in my opinion- sleek and deadly like the lice on a Hutt.

I'm gonna say starviper as well it's a nice looking ship.

I'd say go for the Scum and Villainy boxset and pay the difference. You always wanna kick start a faction in any game with a boxset

Star Viper. It's the most privateer out of the whole bunch, and the most instantly recognizable.

Votes so far:

StarViper: 3

M3-A: 2

Most Wanted: 1

StarViper. Anything from MandalMotors, especially based on an ancient Basilisk variant (KotOR2), has to get top priority.

M3-A - it looks really cool. Sort of like a Cloakshape, but not quite as boxy.

This new interceptor thing looks kinda sweet, that's my vote.

Plus as I understand it, its a hutt ship, and who the heck wouldn't want to be able to say, " My interceptor will be piloted by a space slug"

I'd go with the scyk fighter because that is the one that you will likely want the most multiples of.

M3-A

StarViper: 4

M3-A: 6

Most Wanted: 1

I can't believe no one has voted for IG-2000 yet; that ship looks like the biggest tank in the game.

this is also my favorite of all the new previews

something about it screams, awesome

Well, assuming your going to get all the stuff anyway it just a $15 discount on whatever gets picked. With the M3-A at least you don't have to worry about covering extra costs.

Plus from what we know about the stats, its gonna be pretty sweet

I'd go Star Viper! Its a new ship(not a repaint of a current ship) and it goes well against up coming yt2400, Shadows of the Empire and all.
