Isn't this what you really want in wave 7 Starkiller?

well what i predict we will see is another big scum ship maybe the Haunts tooth

for rebels ( even if i dislike this scum ) i want to see the K-Wing as thier next addition cause that fits within the E-Wings era

to make him more special a 2 wide and 1 lenght base the dots and fighter placed very central but cause of its wideness hard to flieng ship that will make fun to master using him i guess.

for the Empire i would like to see the Tie-Avenger, Tie-Hunter or the Alpha Class Xg-1 Starwing. just let it be one of these pls T_T

for ARMADA plz

The CR90 is already a bit 'over the top' for a dogfighting game like X-Wing ... an Imperial Star Destroyer would be larger then an epic play area by FAR.

Thought about using one for a playing surface if you scale it back down to 1/1000 it kinda fits for epic. But if your already scaling back that much might as well just do 1/500 and make it a victory class instead.

It won't be wave 6, so i am not interested.

My money's ready...

Id like to add Choo choo!

Man! That is one sexy looking freighter!

One ship I would like to see is the TIE Sentinel

I think it's a really good looking TIE, and with it's duel turrents it opens up a lot of interesting possibilities. But they'd probably add the TIE Agressor instead if they added anything like it.

I hadn't thought of the tie Sentinel. Good catch i bet it would be popular with imperial pilots who want a little turret action. Shame it was only a drawing in galaxies.

If they release the TIE Sentinel and not the Sentinel-Class Shuttle, I will lose my ****. Srrysly.

Oh well we cant have you losing your four asterisk's ... Better not do it ffg :P

I will laugh the TIE Sentinel out of the building. This and other wonky designs like the TIE Aggressor, TIE Interdictor, and I'd even include the TIE Hunter are a waste of a perfectly good expansion spot better handed to more popular and better loved Imperial craft. The only reason I'd agree on the Hunter is because at least when Fractalsponge touches it, I can respect the design. But not when it's clearly trying to outperform the TIE Defender in being a mary sue starfighter.

You know what would be cool that nobody's thought of much? The Scimitar assault bomber. If we ever wanted a craft to abuse the heck out of bombs, the Scimitar would be it. Three bomb slots and new ordnance to put in them. Something the Rebellion nor the Scum can match. If I don't get my Assault Gunboats or TIE Avengers, I could at least look at that one with some satisfaction for creating a piece to flex existing game mechanics.

The Scimitar isn't exactly winning any beauty pageant for most attractive tie craft either you know :P

My moneys still on the Assault gunboat.

Yeah, I want the Xg-1 more than any other Imperial ship atm, and I would be shocked if it wasn't in the next wave.

On the note of wonky TIE designs, how bout some TIE Raptor action! :P

Geeze i dunno if i should pilot it or try and slam dunk it in space basketball.

Come on TIE Interdictors are epic. How are TIE Hunters mary sues? We have talked about the Scimitar 1&2 in the past. Since its dive bomber and uses proton grenades instead of proton bombs it should get some new bits. Although its not as powerful as a bomber and bigger versions of it.

I really like the Scimitar idea, would be a good addition. As bombers go though I'd say the H-wing would be a good one for the Alliance; turrented primary weapon, 2 crew slots, cannon upgrade, proton torpedoes, and shields and hull out the butt, though it'd be as slow and unmaneuverable as a Dewback hit by an ion cannon.

I would like to see an aces type exspansion with the X-wing and Tie-Advanced. The advanced needs help and I would like for the x-wing to get some love, still want to see the Rogue Squadron Pilots similar to the royal guard tie.

I gotta feeling wave 7 will be a very ordinance based wave,

H-wing / K-wing

Scimitar bomber / Assault gunboat / Missile boat

Rihkxyrk / Supafighter / Kimogila

Scum only really have the y-wing in the bomber role thought most of their ships seem to be able to carry at least one sort of ordinance.
