Scum and Villainy Podcast Interview Series with X-wing Designers Alex Davey and Frank Brooks

By Kelvan, in X-Wing

The Tartan-class patrol cruiser is also at 250m, appears here as a successor to the Lancer (which looks horrible IMO)

I think FFG could clean up the design and make it look good.

But what I REALLY took from that interview is that the Vigil is coming. I know Alex said 250m, but it's probably 250-ish, since he's not going to know by heart that the Vigil is 250m. Does anyone think they would pass up the opportunity to give us a wedge-shaped ship? The Vigil makes a lot of sense, I really hope it's the one.

edit: this thread needs more Vigil pics.

I consider myself the podcast star wars historian. What is this ship from? I guess I didn't pick this up because I was thinking of the next question.

I will say that nothing bothers me about the prospect of a mini death star.

I found over a dozen imperial ships on wookeepedia, I'll post pics in the morning when I'm not falling asleep.

Found a large but great looking freighter, was in one of tbencomics with "Rebel One" in it (forget the exact comic name).

My bet goes to this ship, the escort carrier:

I put a video instead of an image because in wookiepedia there is very little info or pics about it. In the video, you can see it in action in the first part of the mission :)

(For those who ask, the game is rebel strike)

Not going to take credit for finding either one, Vigil is quite common in the Imperial Epic thread, it also appears in Age of Rebellion, so FFG has used it before, and it's on Wookieepedia . The Tartan is here .

edit: Apparently this is the work of the guy from fractalsponge.net , he did some work for a Star Wars book. He explains about it here . It's nice that it got in, but it's fantastic we can use it for X-wing :)

I'm really eager to see this.
