What would be your Ship you want FFG to release?

By devotedknight, in X-Wing

Scum ship: Kom'rk Class (Mandalorialn ship)

Wait, isn't this just s Scyk facing the other way? Sure looks like it.

They're both of Mandalorian make. This ship is actually the reason it took me so long to figure out which way the Scyk was pointing lol.

This is also much larger. Fits more than one person. And the wings rotate around the cockpit and are up for landing.

It's a very good looking ship, but too rare to be relevant. Also, the aesthetics are kind of "too pretty" and sleek for Star Wars. That said, I have no problem of this being release (as long as we get the Assault Gunboat, TIE Avenger and TIE Hunter FIRST).

The odds of this ship making it into this game are right around 0%. It's Clone Wars Era, not sure how it scales, and i'm sure there are other more era-relevant scum ships to pick from.

I just think it's a cool ship.

Ugly? UGLY???!!

It's GLORIOUS.

Yeah, some people have bad taste and their opinions belong nowhere except for the trash bin.

Let me make it clear that the Assault Gunboat is objectively beautiful. Did not mean to imply support for the subhuman side of the argument.

I'd love to see Kylos ship too, and the space capable troop transports flanking it. They might not have good defenses but would be cool for objective based games. From the looks of it there is plenty of room for expansions involving TFA. We still don't know if there is a new tie bomber design yet, or some new resistance styled bomber as well. We don't know if the new movie will have a ton of space combat as well...it looks like alot of the ship combat takes place in atmosphere.

It'll be even more beautiful when we have a phalanx of them on the tabletop, launching a stream of advanced concussion missiles at a Rebel CR-90...

A Gunboat's just a shuttle some lazy bastard lazily stuck extra wings on before blinding/bribing/coercing his art director to let it slide.

So, in other words not really all that different conceptually than every single TIE variant that's come out since Return of the Jedi? Should fit in perfectly, then!

Incidentally, the designers in question were employed by LucasArts.

So what? Doesn't mean their art direction wasn't crap. Laziness is laziness. Bad design is bad design. Those TIE variants you cited? Most of them are awful and, by the way, kinda unnecessary. An X-wing fuselage with 2 more sets of foils jammed on it and labelled an Asterisk Gunship would be a lazy, bad design too.

...and opnions, as always, are merely opinions and one single opinion is not necessarily representative of the majority audience.

To be fair, many designs from that period stem from technical concerns involving poly counts. Hence ships like the BFF-1 and DX-9.

Nostalgia and love of that era means I want both on my table. Along with assault gunboats loaded with TORPEDOES FOR THE CR90!!! :o

If you have advanced missiles for gods sake save them for the A-wings. :P

You mean the ARC-170?

OMG......the horizon of events!

This pic just makes it even more obvious that the TFA shuttle is far too tall for a Large ship.

Proportions are truly wonky and make me question the designers' credentials.

PMSL :lol:

Funny cause it's true.

I would like an IMPARC and IMPV though.

The majority has been wrong before. Look how long slavery was around in the south, not to mention in ancient cultures like Rome, Egypt....

Look, I can see It's your favorite ship, and that's great. It's also okay that I think it's a terrible catastrophe of bad design and poor decision-making.

The point is, we both agree that Jar-Jar Binks was an abomination, and that's what counts.

Please, please, please - the truly beautiful Assault Gunboat.

Would love Mandalorian ships and a clone wars era (fully armored) y-wing <3

I do like the clone Y-Wing.

I want to see the YKL-37R Nova Courier for the Rebel Alliance. Always been a fan of the ship since it premiered in SWG, but I was never "ace" enough to get it. For rules adaptation, see FFG's Fly Casual and WOTC's Rebellion Era Campaign Guide. Help vindicate me!

Rename to XG1 Alpha Gunship, paint a wolfhead on the nose.

Boats get no respect.

Nimbus-Class V-Wing. I would abandon the Rebels to fly that ship with the Empire.

I second that

I want to see the evolution of the shark... Er, I mean Tie: Tie drone, Hunter, Predator.

Republic Gun Ship, would be savaged and used by Scum. (however, I could see an argument for rebels also using it.)
