Most interesting that actually Corporate Sector had most of Clone Wars ships and it could make them quite good as third faction without Clone Wars implementing.

Corporate sector fleet includes:

Invincible -class Dreadnaught cruisers

Victory-I -class Star Destroyers

Venator-class Star Destroyer

Dreadnaught -class heavy cruisers

Recusant -class light destroyers

Marauder -class corvettes

even Lucrehulk -class battleships for possible epic play

Even CR90 could easily be in CSA fleet. Really great mix for the third faction, and great addition of noticible designs from Clone Wars era.

CSA VSD could be cheaper and weaker version of Imperial VSD with lower squadron and engineering value to match lore.

Now Corporate Sector....thats a much better idea in my mind. It fits into the existing era, and the lower power level of the ships would fit them nicely into the niche of "independent faction", that would really more on numbers and cheap stuff.

Good call Krass

I could really get behind this. My one suggestion for this is that several of these ships would also be in the the rebel and imperial fleets. If they are rare for rebels or imps add a named unique of the ship for those fleets so people can use them in the other fleets even if stats are a bit different. FFG is already doing multiple versions of the same ship with different stat lines so it shouldnt be a big deal if they provide one more card for something so you can take it in another fleet. Stat line doesnt even have to be amazing, just let us take the ship.

Actually, I found a named Lucrehulk for the rebels, the Fortressa. Sounds like an aboslutely massive ship.

Also, a really easy way to 'balance' the ships against the newer ships is to lower the engineering and squadron and increase the command ratings to reflect the 'lower' tech of the PT. You could then have an upgraded version with improved stats.

We are being lined up for what we will see in the future movies. Pulling our heads out of the past is where this game is headed. There is no other Clone War material as of late, why ruin Armada with it in the future.

<sarcasm> Right because I'm certain that ever warship that belonged to a class shown in the Prequel era will be decomissioned, scraped or destroyed with 50 years of the PT ending. </sarcasm>

No, they're just garbage compared to the newer sophisticated ships of the Galactic Empire

Why take a Venator when you can have a cheaper escort frigate that puts out just as many TIEs? Besides if you want a Venator, how about a Secutor-class Star Destroyer? It's got the Venator head but does almost everything better.

I want my Providence, Lucrehulk, Munificent and all the other CIS goodies

Screw the Republic. They only won due our Leadership disappearing mysteriously.

While I agree with your sentiment that most of the ships would be obsolete garbage by this point, i dont think there's any Frigate that can carry nearly 400+ fighters like a Venator can!

Incidentally, thats a stupid number in the context of the setting and in comparison to other ships, but thats the canon number, so....yeah.

When it comes to the Venators 400+ Fighters, I like to think that is when they forgo any ground forces in place of more fighters.

Though it's Garbage compared to the Providence Class Carrier/Destroyer

Well, there is a big difference between carried fighters and deployable fighters. There could easily be 200 fighters in reserve... But it is an absurd number

Given that many Imperial designs aren't that much newer then the CIS ships they aren't that outdated. 20 years isn't much time in warship design in a setting like Star Wars where ship technology evolves slowly. Hell the CSA is using cruiser designs that are over 3,000 years old in the OT era EU, and the empire is shown using warship designs that are 100 years old or older.

People really do over estimate the tech differance between the 2 Eras. Their was not some big Tech boom between the 2 movies and I don't even know how a Resistance faction (rebels) would be INVENTING VASTLY new tech Expesially since they used what ever ship they could find. it's not like a nebleon B frigate or a Corvett is CUTTING edge tech . The imperials just made everything BIGGER.
