As for new ships, my bet is on the Vaksai...
Vaksai:

...Cough!! Ahem!! Cough!!
Edited by hismhsWhile I always enjoy a new ship or two, I'd be much happier getting the current ships to work properly. As is, S&V has gotten the bigs in line but the small ships are really lacking. Hopefully an "Aces" pack soon to get the costs in line so that we can get some actual wingmen out of the current roster of S&V ships.
I want the Mandalorian (one-man) starfighters from the SW:Rebels episode "Protector of Concord Dawn".
Fast, powerful... and they spin!!!
Also: those gold lasers, man.
Skipray: While it is a Sienar ship it never really caught on with the Empire and was also sold on the open market. So make it the 2nd Imp./Scum dual faction ship. With MJ as a pilot.
Cloakshape or go home...

I didn't realise MajorJuggler was such a big Skipray fan!
Although an odd looking ship, it has grown on me, like the YV-666: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Pursuer-class_enforcement_ship. And, of course, this could mean another Boba Fett, but with a turret.

and lots of flat surfaces to gribble up with graffiti and stuff

MJ? Michael Jordan? 
They've got plenty of cool looking ships.
What they don't have is a surplus of useful small ships.
Kithrax, G1A, StarViper: Functionally Rebel equivalents of the X, B, and E-wing respectively, right down to efficiencies in various metas.
Y-wing, Z-95: literally Rebel equivalents.
Scyk: cannon-toting TIE fighter; could've been interesting if they'd actually priced it right
And... that's it? That's it. I get that some of this is that Rebels were pulling from similar stockpiles as the scummy mercenaries were, which means they ended up with similar combat doctrines, but... we haven't got a light interceptor, or an arc-dodger worthy of the name. StarViper might've been intended as such, but they messed up the stats in ways well beyond price if that was the intent. (Hm, I should find a card art illustrator and make my point with it some day.)
I would personally love to see S&V get some of those mining guild TIE fighters... They are just so 
:wub: !!!!
Supposedly FFG has already said No, but I still want me some Uglies. Y-ties or Z-ceptors please. Could they turn out any worse than the Scyk?
Skiprays would be cool. I'd still like to see the Clawcraft although I'm not sure whether that should be scum or Imperial. Cloakshapes decent as well. Getting the V-wing would be cool, although that won't be happening anytime soon.
EDIT: Mandalorian Fighters (including the Legends Pursuer) are pretty cool too.
Edited by YwingAceI would like the Cloakshape fighters and/or the R-41's. They both just yell "pirates" to me. Just my 2 cents
Skiprays for a large base
Edited by Salted DiamondOut of all the ships in that list the Skipray Blastboat stands out the most for me. I just like the look of that ship but game wise I don't know what role it could play in the S&V faction.
MJ probably means Mara Jade in this context. Though I'm still a bit disappointed that she wasn't a Z-95 pilot.
Edited by StarWarsDad1138I very much want to play S&V, I just keep getting dragged back to the Empire because they have a lot more choice. Only one StarViper can take a title card, the Khirax is pretty much a T 65 and the interceptor..well is the interceptor... If they had more choice, or depth of choice I am sure there would be a lot more S&V players out there.
FFG we want to play S&V, just make it so we dont have to take big ships!
Edited by ArchangelspivOut of those choices pretty much only the cloakscape.
Vaksai and Ryhkzyrk I really like.
More than more ships they really just need an Aces pack for their small fighters. The Scyk really is THAT bad, the pilot + ship combos are aweful for the Special K, and Guri is really the only competitive Starviper. Xizor could be if the other small ships that need to escort him were better.
Of those ships posted in post one, the only one I kinda like from the looks is the Toscan fighter, the rest look pretty weak in design. Still I don't hope we get it for Scum, it looks more like a rebel ship. Id actually rather FFG designed their own stuff, a lot of the old EU ships just don't look that good.
Edited by DwingI'm expecting the D-type starfighter to show up eventually. I think it's the only starfighter actually shown on a card that's still waiting for a release.
The Vaksai would like to have a word with you.
Z-95 pilots for scum:
Mara Jade ps 8 (change one blank result to crit per round)
Han Solo ps 9 (different ability than Falcon Han) possibly reroll green dice, add evade action
Outlaw Ace (generic EPT ps 5)
These can be included in the scum huge ships, Wild Karrde or Jabba's Star cruiser.
Also Cloakshape and R-41 need to be in the next wave or two. They aren't any uglier than your average SWG offerings.
MJ probably means Mara Jade in this context. Though I'm still a bit disappointed that she wasn't a Z-95 pilot.
You are correct. In context, I thought it was obvious. Maybe not. Could be everyone was just having fun.
I too would like to see the cloaks have make an appearance. Super cheap, durable and with a weak primary weapon, but a title giving it a Cannon slot at reduced cost. It's supposed to be super customizable so maybe multiple titles that give various upgrade slots at reduced cost

The Scyk?

Nah, more like a chance to do what the Scyk was supposed to be right.
Obviously, I'd love to see the Preybird and the CloakShape. Skipray too, but Scum already have the Punishing One, G-1A, Firespray and YV-666 the Skipray would have various small points of difference against all of them, but it's also a pretty busy design space for them.
