Begging for Uglies?

By patox, in X-Wing

They're here.

I think the Punisher looks less like an Ugly than the Bomber does.

At this point, is there even enough left of the horse corpse to beat?

My problem with the K-Wing is the obvious missiles latched under the wings.

Like every other starship in the galaxy uses launchers for it's warheads, but for some reason the K-Wing uses technology fresh out of Top Gun.

Bah them is prettys

Get it right

Clearly those are all individual launch pods. That they stuck out on poles. For ease of... maintenance. Because there's so many of them, you see, and they learned their lesson after the ground crews started leaving the panels off the Y-wing all those years previous that if it's a pain to maintain, the crews'll just cheat at it to get on with the rest of their to-do list. So you might as well design from the outset to have everything nice and easy to reach, aesthetics and compactness be damned.

The Imperial doctrine actually bothered with proper worker performance reviews, so they can pile all those launch systems into the compact multi-weapon pods, and they'll still get fixed up anyway lest disciplinary action gets your ass fired.

Yep, that must be it. :)

If only a K-wing could take Wingman :(

lest disciplinary action gets your ass fired.

Or strangled with magic!

They're here.

BOOOOOOOOOOOO

your jokes are bad and you should feel bad

I suppose the Punisher could be a scrapyard amalgamation of lots of dead TIE bombers, but the K-wing? Good luck finding ships to kitbash that from.

The TIE Punisher is a thing of beauty, in a sledgehammer sort of way.

I'd say:

- 2 Y-Wing cockpits, welded together.

- 2 B-Wing main fuselages, for the long wing.

- 2 B-Wing sfoils, for the landing/bomb-laden wings.

- 3 E-Wing engines.

- 1 Clone Wars-era Y-Wing turret.

- 1 Republic Attack Gunship turret.

- Salt.

- Pepper.

Mix together until a monstruosity comes out.

And remmeber, in StarWars, the uglier the ship, the prettier it is.

I think they both look great. The Punisher, as all other Empire military hardware, is modular and bare bones. The K-Wing is akin to an A-10 with Rebel flavor added.

If you want to talk about uglies, you really forgot to put up a picture of Scum's new Dumpster/Stapler love child :P

They're here.

Your store has them? Where is it?

Please, ugly came a long time ago with the e-wing.

Exactly!

Rebels still hold the title of most fugly ships in the game.

E-Wing, K-Wing, HWK, YT-2400.

The TIE-Inter-sher ugly?

It is a work of art compared to any of those. :P

Agree. That ship is ten times uglier than the K-Wing.

Sir I believe your assessment is completely incorrect.

There are clearly R-41 parts, and a 1980's Lada and you failed to mention duct tape and chewing gum.

If only a K-wing could take Iceman :(

Fixed that for ya

No, no, a thousand times no.... Please I do not want to have to buy 'uglies' just to get cards for the Imperials and Rebels.

And besides, you guys are right we already have the punisher and k-Wing.

Came in here to talk about actual Scum Uglies...not sure what I was expecting. Shows me.



People complaining about the Punisher and K-Wing (or E-Wing, or whatever) you're absolutely entitled to your opinion. Please just don't be a jerk about it.



As for proper Legends Uglies, I was on Wookieepedia the other day and found out that Kavil and his pirate gang (Kavil's Corsairs! How cool is that?!) primarily used Z'ceptors, along with Kavil's customised BTL-S3 Y-Wing. I think that is freaking awesome. I would absolutely love a Z'ceptor as a Scum small ship: it's got two cannons from the Squint wings, the two Headhunter cannons, a bloody Y-Wing turret up top, and an Astromech (for a nose, but still!).



You'd be looking at a mix between the Y-Wing and the X-Wing, probably 3ATK with both a Salvaged Astro slot and a Turret slot. Not sure what the Legends say about its agility or flight capabilities but I think it would make for a nice solid customisable mid-point fighter for Scum à la the B-Wing. Depending on how heavy you wanted to make it, I would buy either 5HP behind 2AGI or even 4HP with 3AGI, depending on squad point cost. However, I must say I'd rather it be a Scum faction only ship, given its hodgepodge nature.



Edit: fixed link, thanks DarthEnderX! And yeah, it's the only one I really like that looks like a hunk of scrap that's bristling with guns.
