Not really. Recovery is really a rebel mechanic, with Gonk being a new exception for scum.
Scum has Gonk, Tel Travura, and IG88A. - Scum Good for Small and Large ships
Rebels have Miranda Doni, 3 Astromech droids, and Chewbaca crew. And R2-D2 crew. - Rebels Good for Small and Large ships
Imperials have Instigator, the best faction recovery on an Epic Ship. - Imperials Not allowed in standard games. Only good for Epic games.
There are options available to all factions as well, such as Reinforced Deflectors.
There are also some Damage and Crit canceling abilities, such as Determination (Everyone with EPT and not limited), Rebels' Integrated Astromech (Rebels not limited) and the Empire's Jerjerrod (Imperial Limited to one in the game).
Way to kill the tread. Point out all the facts.... That's not how the internets work! Now I can't ignorantly argue with fake rage!
But!
Perhaps these comparisons are not quite as equal as portrayed. See notes in read.
