Imperial Raider

By Cilionelle, in Star Wars: Age of Rebellion RPG

With the impending arrival (provided it's not delayed...) of the Imperial Raider for the X-wing minis game, has anyone drafted stats for it?

Its in fly casual iirc.

You sure? I don't have Fly Casual yet but when I asked what capital size ships were included in Fly Casual no one mentioned it. Unfortunately the Fly Casual Wookieepedia page was never updated with the full list of ships and vehicles in the book so that is no help.

It is not, but the Decimator is.

No official stats for it yet, but I would love to see it get something. Maybe LibrarianNPC will do a writeup.

Ah yeah I was thinking the Decimator. (Seriously that thing seems more like a Raider)

But you know what, lets see what we can do about the Raider....

It's a corvette intended for anti-starfighter work, but it's got Turbolasers and Ion cannons. Doesn't say how many so I'm going to assume only a couple....

So lets try....

Sil 5

Speed 3

Handling -1

Def: 2/2/2/1

Armor 5

HT: 55

ST: 30

Hyperdrive x2/x10

Navcom Yes

Sensors Long

Compliment 200ish

Enc 2000ish

Passengers: 40ish (Troops)

Consumables 1 Year

Price Rare: 4M/5®

HP: 1

Weapons:

6 Dorsal Hvy Laser Cannons:

3 Front/Right, 3 Front/Left

Damage 6, Crit 3, Range Short, Linked 1

2 Light Turbolasers

1 Front/Right, 1 Front/Left

Damage 9, Crit 3, Range Medium, Breach 2, Slow 1

2 Heavy Ion Cannons

1 Front/Right, 1 Front/Left

Damage 7, Crit 4, Range Medium, Ion, Slow 1

That do anything for ya?

If the Raider was designed to counter CR-90s I think it would have a lot more turbolasers that that but the rest looks good.

The Raider was designed for anti-starfighter combat, not to so much against other cruisers.

Yeah, original article says they were gonna go with the Lancer, but it didn't quite fit the scope of the game, so they just made something totally new that met more what they had in mind.

As is my build would still be able to take on a CR90 if it had to, but it would make more sense to call in something better suited.

I could swear the article said they we created to counter CR-90s rather then for anti fighter ops. Maybe I'm remembering wrong.

The article is here. And Ghostofman good work. Although wookiepedia lists the ship as having 8 dual-heavy laser batteries for all its accuracy. No counts on the single turbolasers or ion cannons. Maybe 2 per side for those occasions that they can all be bundled for a forward shot?
