But guys we have to work on the Defiant so we can get FFG to do attack wing on scale with X-wing and balanced..........
I say it, I could bring in one ship from....
How about the Discovery One?
Crew: HAL 9000
Cost: 0
Action: Discard another Crew card, because they will probably get in the way.
Space 1999, was one of my favorite Sci-Fi shows. This series really got my hooked on Sci-Fi.The eagle is an awesome ship, but doesn't really fit in with the other ships in the game, it would get demolished almost immediately.
I think we should build an eagle. The Eagle is like a Volkswagen Van, you can modify so many ways.
The dial would be like the Lamda shuttle, but no red maneuvers, with the exception on a 1 turn.
The Basic Model
Primary Weapon Value = 2
Agility = 1
Hull = 4
Shields = 0
Upgrades:
Cannon Upgrade
System Upgrade
Crew Upgrade
Crew Upgrade
This would be the basic model
The "War Version" would have named pilots
Alan Carter PS9 :Ability can preform one free evade per attack.
John Koenig PS8: Ability, All Eagle with range 1 or 2 have their Pilot skill Increased by 2
Bill Fraser PS7: Ability, Ship adds the boost ability to it's action bar.
Elite Pilot Upgrade
Missile Upgrade
Missile Upgrade
Crew Upgrade card might read light
Sandra Benes: Ship gain a System Upgrade
Victor Bergman: Ships that fire at a vessel equipped with Victor Bergman have the Primary Weapon value reduced by one.
Maya, She can mimic any crew upgrade card in play
This is perfect, love the Maya card
I was also thinks that they could turn in place. A zero Bank!
And dont forget they can be equipped with a turreted laser mount and missiles
Edited by GosricOhhh, The missile I've got. But the Turreted laser mount, that's awesome. Now that's a faction I would like to Play!
Edited by devotedknightThey are not designed primarily for combat but with skilled pilots can fight even Hawks effectively. I think Alan Carter took out 5 Hawks in 1 Eagle....then probably crashed it *L*
And if Eagles etc are involved why not bring in UFO The SHADO interceptor could be fun and the Hawk was originally designed for the same purpose

Correct, The Hawk was the fighter version of the Eagle. I kind of think the Eagle is like a Huey Helicopter . During the show there "militarized" a few eagles. I really think that this would be really fun to play, Oh well.
CHP-W10 Chippewa Heavy Fighter (a House Davion variant), from BattleTech. 2 missile slots, 1 cannon slot, a whole heck of a lot of hull, no shields, and both good base attack and good agility. It'd include a pretty solid dial, too (PS 8 [insert Davion Named Pilot here], PS 7 Cassandra Blake, PS 5 Michael Gladstone, PS 2 AFFS Aerospace Pilot).
I'd also love to see a Sith Fury (PS9 Darth Occlus, PS 7 Emperor's Wrath, PS 5 Sith Assassin, PS 3 Sith Marauder).
If we're restricted to TV shows, then I'm thinking of any of the following:
SA-43 Hammerhead Endo/Exo-Atmospheric Attack Jet (Space: Above and Beyond)
Starfury (Babylon 5), possibly including some or all of the variants in an entire series of ships.
Gunstar (The Last Starfighter), including a title Gunstar One, equipped with a Death Blossom (maybe some kind of unique upgrade slot that only has one upgrade).
A Gamilus Space Submarine would be damned handy to have
If it featured in a failed attempt to make a web series can it count?
From any TV show, I would bring in a shadow vessel from B5. Ohh Yea! Capital Ships, No Problem!
The problem here is a shadow ship would one shot anything it comes up against.
Cowboy Bebop grapplers!
I see the Buck Rogers fighter, and Raise you the Gunstars from The Last Starfighter.
Heart of Gold
Infinite Improbability Drive
Roll 10 attack dice. If all 10 show the same result (without modification) remove two opposing ships from the game.
There are some nice starfurrys and thunderbolts on shapeways that are about the correct scale, been very tempted to pick up some and come up with some rules to bring them into x-wing.

And what the problem with That! ![]()

Roll 10 attack dice. If all 10 show the same result (without modification) remove two random opposing ships from the game and replace them with random contents from the core set box (box lid included).
Fixed it for you
Edited by KylaI would bring in a SA43 Hammerhead Exofighter just because.
Let build one!
SA-43 Endo/Exo-Atmospheric Attack Jet ("Hammerhead") fighters.
Primary Weapon is a 3 Auto cannon Turreted
Agility 3
Hull 4
Shield 0
Action Bar; Focus, Target Lock, Boost, Barrel Roll
Upgrades bar; Missile, Missile, Chaff, Chaff
Chaff = Drop if you are the defender of a missile or a torpedo attach. Either add two green dice or get one evade token.
Movement dial is of the Outer Rim Smuggler with the K-Turns white.
I would Really, Really, Really, Really, Really, like to play star fighter from other Sci- Fi . Do ya think FFG will put out an expansion? ![]()
