How about this ship?

I won't lie, that ship looks dead sexy.

Does that thing have a name?

Is that the twin tail

Have no clue what I is... But yes please. And if you could put it in the same release wave as the ARC's behind, that'd be great. :)

that look like prequel-style apocrypha. Such blasphemy should not be tolerated in these forums. Remember, prequels lead to fear, fear leads to anger and anger leads to a PS9 General Jar-Jar Binks with 2 EPT slots.

I'm not keen on it, but hey, it's way, way better than a K-Wing. Oh, and prequel stuff rocks, just not the movies themselves. Their spaceships are pretty sweet though. You've got a P-61 Black Widow inspired bomber, a couple of A-Wing and F-102 Delta Dagger inspired fighters, a fighter based on iconic art deco race planes, another fighter based on the P-38 Lightning, and a cruiser designed after the SR-71 Blackbird. What more could you possibly want?

It's post-prequel.

If that's a thing.

Mist Hunter? I'm not a huge fan, but good catch, they do look similar.

I wasn't even thinking of the Mist Hunter! I just love the Bronco. I was answering your question straight. The Bronco seems totally like the kind of thing a crummy Outer Rim denizen would fly. Easy to maintain, a little cargo capacity, the option for a bunch of guns, landing and taking off from dirt roads, etc.

MHMH!

(Must Have Mist Hunter!)

FFG spokesperson says, "I don't always announce controversial, awesome spaceships for your favorite table-top starfighter game, but when I do, it's Post Prequel. Play thirsty, my friends."

those ARCs look wayy better.

My biggest question is why didn't the Prequels have the Z-95 headhunter?

Instead we got these wanabe X-wing only they were some stupid triple wing x-wing.

Gah they make the N-1 look good :blink:

It's a hopeless fight. This forum's ideas are so set in stone that they don't even bother to listen to minority. I agree with you (except P-38? yuck give me something that can do more than fly straight) about the prequels.

But it needed more Dauntlesses!! :D :D

Congratulations for choosing the worst picture available of the ARC-170!

If we had headhunters in the prequels, you probably would have been saying it's just a wannabe X-wing with two less wings ;)

Gah why does everyone think Headhunters are an EU only ship?? They appear in TCW. Granted it's not the same model we have in-game, but they still are canon in the new canon. Same with the YT-2400 for that matter.

I don't think anybody is saying that :wacko:

That was one of themost disappointing things about ROTS for me. The Phantom Mence novel mentioned Z-95s. I thought for sure we would get to see the Republic flying Z-95s, fully armored Y-Wing in thier prime and the mythical Republic T.I.E. Fighter with Victory class Star Destroyers and Dreadnaughts. Instead we got ARC-170's, V-Wings and Ventor class SD's. That is also one of the reasons I was so very happy to see Y-Wings and Z-95's in clone wars. If only we had gotten to see a Vic star and Dreadnaughts on screen.

Wow, way to choose the least flattering image of the ARC-170 possible just to assert your fairly meh point.

Try again dude.

I've always liked the ARC-170, I just wish the wings were beefier so the cannons don't look like wrenches glued to cardboard.

I find it to be an odd mix of A-10 and WWII bomber

I'll give you that the shiny space blackbird is kinda cool BUT no weapons

Yes and we should have had Y-wings as the main space superiority fighter....but GL wanted a new toy range to milk.

But hey, it's quite well known that his only rule for star wars is "as long as you give me money you can do what you want"
