Imperial Eta-2 and Scum V-wing

By GrimmyV, in X-Wing

But Jedi could 'dodge' real lasers, because they are precogs, with the Force able to start moving them out of harms way even before a trigger is pulled or a button pressed. Sorry for the double post.

If that were true how did jango gun that jedi off the balcony, his blasts are way below lightspeed.

Same goes for the master gunned down when order 66 is enacted.

Organic reactions obviously play a part on some level or no jedi would ever go down to gun fire because they can easily leap dozens of feet out of the way.

The dark side of the Force was clouding the Jedi's minds and hampering their abilities. Yoda discussed this with Kenobi and others in the prequels. Also a Jedi is not always in tune with the force, they can be distracted by emotions and stuff and not be able to let the force guide their actions. It's pretty basic Jedi knowledge.

Oh it's always the dark side to blame isn't it, couldn't be incompetent leadership not with all those wise Jedi masters around.

I was way confused, because apparently there are two different ships called V-Wings. Y'all were talking about Scum or Imperial V-Wings and I was all like "nah bro" but I think this is the issue:

I don't know anything about the Imperial one, but I played Rogue Squadron a lot back in the day. If I recall, the V-Wing had insane lasers but absolutely horrid defense. Like:

3-4 Attack

3 Agility

1 Hull

2 Shields

I think it could actually fill an interesting role for the Rebels, somewhere between an A-Wing and an E-Wing in maneuverability.

Edit: I note that the Rebel V-Wing was technically an "airspeeder" so I guess it isn't a space combat ship. Shame, I saw some potential there.

Yeah, the rebel V-Wing is like a replacement for the Snowspeeder.

We're talking about the Alpha-Nimbus V-wing Starfighter, used by the Empire, and Scum, not the Rebel V-wing airspeeder (basically the successor of the Snowspeeder)
