Yeah some of the other Bounty Hunter ships were a tad odd, though I like Mist Hunter, it's kinda the front end of a Hind D with a spoiler on top. Looks like I wasn't the only one that thought IG-2000 went the opposite way around than FFG has made it.

Wave 3 should be one ship per faction.

Rebel: R-41 star chaser

Imperial: Chiss Clawcraft or TIE scout

Scum & Villainy: Rihkxyrk assault fighter

Some of the others, such as Zuckuss's "Mist Hunter" and Dengar's "Punishing One" don't necessarily have quite the same Star Wars quality of design, in my very subjective opinion.)

But.... I don't even....

From a game play perspective, the rebel roster is pretty solid - they have a good ship in all price classes, the empire still has a couple holes.

The Kwing is the only rebel ship I can think of that will add something unique to the rebel roster. My idea was like, 14 pts, 1 atk, 1 Def, 5 hull, 4 shield, astromech, systems, crew, missile, torpedo, turret, cannon, bomb. The dial would be very poor.

The Imperials need a solid mid-range fighter (21-25 pt generic)

The assault gunboat would fit that niche nicely (although the m3a steals it's thunder somewhat)

2 atk, 2 agi, 3 hull, 3 shield, cannon, torpedo, 18 pts.

The other 2 ships should be scum ships.

Doesn't matter which, they need a good ship in the 15-20 pt bracket and a solid fighter in the 21-25 pt bracket.

I'm calling Rogue Shadow.

K-Wing? That is a nice biggie for the Rebs.

It would not hurt my feelings at all if we get every one of these ships.

My prediction is we will get 3 ship waves, 1 per faction.

Scum and villany will be gthroc freighter

Empire will be tie droid

Rebel will be vwing

What tease? Where?

The designers mentioned they have a new title or upgrade coming later. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCrNf_Y4KfA

Thanks for posting this man, really interesting interview.

The next wave should be 2Scum 1each rebel and imperial.

Two Scum, the light hut fighter and possibly the heavy hut fighter(start of this thread)

One empire, Tie/D (droid) or scout. We will have a good 20-25 point fighter once the advanced gets what's coming to it.

One Rebel, not really sure tbh, definitely NOT prequel ships! K-wing would work, it would give them a 3rd big base ship catching them up to the Imperials and possibly give them a LEGITIMATE way to have bombs that they seem to be crying for without doing stupid things to the Y-wing.

I think they might do another scum large ship, two scum small ships and the Rogue Shadow with 2 named pilots and tiles each for Imps and Rebs.

i would love to see the imps get clawcraft.

I like this new frog guy...

Lol cheers man, but I ain't new. Been on here for years I just don't spam posts like some fellas :-P

I would love to see the Punishing One.

Cool looking ship if you ask me.

A shame that the trade fed cap ships kinda look like it but then the Punishing One was around first so fine with me.

You don't use no similes either...

Still you are a cool froggies.

Are bombs on the Y-wing stupid? Maybe my friends aren't as good as players as I thought. Four points of Flachette Torps makes my Goldie a make-shift Biggs. One Y-Boat with two torpedoes is almost always the first to be targeted.

I'm assuming Bombs would do the same thing?

I will admit I have had trouble using bombs. Having bombs means every ship tries to engage you no closer than range 3 or after a range 1 attack they clear house with the largest number allowed on their dial.

But yeah any fighter that is loaded on points is a priority also any fighter that looks like it will give them trouble will be target first. Flechet torpedoes are great on Y-Wings because to double up on them it is the same cost as a single proton torpedo. Add in the Ion turret and you got Y-wings that equal control headaches for your opponent.

I saw an E-wing with R2-D2 and shield upgrade get helplessly blown up. Guess which fighter did that. You got it a Y-wing with Ion cannons doing 1 damage a turn.

Ion Torpedoes! I can't wait!! Poor Phantoms!

My personal wishlist?

Imperials: Starwing (Assault Gunboat), Missile Boat (a few of us brainstormed a suitable 'reload' action for it a while ago)

Rebels: K-Wing, maybe a multi-faction share with T-Wing, YT-2000 (possible Scum faction share)

Scum: T-Wing, R41 Starchaser, Preybird (maybe Imp multifaction), Skipray (maybe Imp multifaction), Hound's Tooth, Slave II (must have an Enkidu title), maaaaaybe an (old republic) V-Wing

The way I see it:
T-Wing: interceptor, a poor man's A-Wing
Starchaser: Z-95 but with the option to take ions (Scyk might make this redundant though)
Preybird (X-Wing analogue)
Skipray (because it's beautiful)

V-Wing: Cannon fodder.

Hound's Tooth and Slave II are relatively iconic bounty hunter ships I have a soft spot for thanks to X-Wing Alliance and Empire At War.

Maybe not all in one wave...

I would love to see the Punishing One.

Ab-so-LUTELY!

Okay, those depictions of the bounty hunter ships actually look a lot better than some of the stuff I've seen of Zuckuss's and Dengar's ships. (Edit: So, to clarify, I'll take back my misgivings about the Mist Hunter and Punishing One, since folks have posted better pictures. )

That IG-2000 in the illustration is shown backwards, though. The Aggressor cockpit is on what would be the "back" according to this picture. That round "nozzle" on what this depicts as the front side is the thruster/nacelle. If you look at the Titanium IG-2000 toy, that part is painted up "ion engine blue."
