Proof that the K-Wing was designed by a 4th Grader.

By gamblertuba, in X-Wing

Flipping through the doodles drawn by my 4th grade son (mostly battleships and the like) I ran across what can only be an early concept sketch of the K-wing.

Just need to add a few more engines and about 7 more bombs and missiles... Oh and another cockpit or two.

Your son has a promising future ahead of him at Lockheed and Martin

That is definitely a K-wing prototype.

Needs more turrets.

Please. That doesn't even look remotely like the letter k.

This is proof that, for those of us who like this ship, there's a fourth grader inside of each of us...

LockMart plane with payload? HAH.

You people with your high and mighty snotty attitudes about the K-Wing are getting borderline offensive.

Borderline offensive... that's the sweet spot.

Borderline offensive... that's the sweet spot.

FYI, it looks nothing like a K-wing.

It looks like a Pelican from Halo with to many guns strapped to it.

No, it looks like a ship with random stuff poking out all over it. Oh wait...

I don't see the resemblance. It's okay though, sometimes parents become delusional about their children's talents and compare their Halo doodles to masterful works of design like the K-Wing. In time though, those parents will just have to accept that their children just aren't as talented as the genius prodigy 4th grader that did design the beautiful K-Wing. Don't worry, maybe your son will become a CPA or something.

And nothing like a K-wing.

Just because ships have certain attributes doesn't mean they look the same.

I wouldn't let it bother you. It's the internet; there's always someone, somewhere waiting to tell you that you're having fun wrong.

Well fun IS 3 points overcosted...

True, but I get really sick of minority bashing on these forums.

I mean... If my opinion is that the KWing is ugly as sin, should I not express it just because a bunch of other people agree?

You should, but you shouldn't act like everyone agrees with you and that it is the only valid opinion.

I can jive with that; I think the Punisher is beautiful, but that's not popular either.

When did K wings become people?

You guys are aware that the only maneuver that the K Wing can do is a 2 green straight, right? The flight stick and speed controls have been replaced with spare missiles. We wanted to be extra sure that you wouldn't run out.

I find the Interdictor to be fantastic, but that may be only because it is from my favorite child-hood game.

Your favorite childhood game was Star Wars: Battlegrounds?

To my knowledge, this sort of ship has previously only been present in that game and in a Star Wars RPG book from year or two ago, which is where it gained the name Interdictor before this game wisely chose to call it Punisher instead. I also have a hope that choosing to call it the Punisher means the Interdictor will at some point take it's rightful place in Armada.

That sketch looks a lot more like this.

Want to claim the Lancaster Bomber was designed by an American schoolchild?

NO...but the Lancaster Bomber sure is ugly.
