Scum and Villainy Shadow Caster

By OmegaLeader144, in X-Wing

Scum has pretty good amount of big ships already.. Fix some of the old ones and few more pilots wouldn't hurt!

It could be like the Mist Hunter and be a small ship that border lines being a small ship.

If anything it would probably be a Rebel ship, but I don't really see them getting another large ship based on the Rebels cartoon anytime soon. Also not sure what niche it would fill since it seems pretty similar in both size and functionality to the YT-2400.

Why would it be a Rebel ship?

'Cause Sabine's sister is, for all intents and purposes, a rebel.

But she is still a bounty hunter.

Ketsu Onyo wasn't a Rebel, she was a bounty hunter for The Black Sun. She is also suspected of leading the Rebels into a trap set by the Empire... a spy: no Rebel.

Her turret on the Shadow Caster is a "weapons array" (prob should be 2 turret slots with a mandatory ion or tractor beam inclusion with a Shadow Caster title)

I like this ship, hope it makes it into the game.

I don't really want it. The color scheme would look bad on a scum squadron :P

It'd definitely be a small ship, we have enough large ships in S&V.

my guess:

Turret primary weapon

3 attack, 1 evade, 6 hull, 2 shields

Target Lock, Evade, Focus

(Elite), Cannon, Cannon, Turret, Crew

probably a title that allows it to fire two diffrent secondary weapons at the same turn.

Ketsu has twice, helped The Rebellion in the face of The Empire.

She'd be a rebel release.

It's almost as wide as the Ghost, no way to make it a small base.

I don't think we will see it anytime soon, there is only one named pilot, and I'm not sure about the fraction, yeah, she was a bounty hunter, but Han Solo was a smuggler... And last time we saw her she was helping the Rebel fleet in a battle with the Empire, with no explanation why and how did this happen.

Bounty Hunter + Imperial Spy = Scum

She isn't Sabine's sister... the quote is "We were like sisters".

Well they're also both mandalorians, and since the guy doing the show (I can't remember his name) like using old EU in his work they could basically be sisters, but I'll admit they aren't blood. Also, I believe the old tactical droid said they had recently occupied the planet. I still think she'd be more fitting as a rebel.

Ketsu says that the planet has "everything you need". Later AP-5 (protocol/analyst droid) told Chopper that the Imperial fleet was waiting at Yost to ambush the rebels.

Anyone who thinks Ketsu and the Shadow Caster aren't bad guys should watch the episode "Forgotten Droid" again... or just wait until Season 3, where I'll bet she is exposed as a spy.

Similar lines to the Havoc... I'll take it after or concurrent with the Cloakshape fighter; that's the Scummiest of Scum ships and *must* be added.

Havoc and Shadowcaster overlap alot, in terms of size and shape and to a lesser extent function. If one is rebels the other has to be scum. I would think they could be Punisher/Kwing Sized, but they seem large enough to be 2400/IG88 sized.

Here's for Space Pirate Nym being a scumbro

Ok. Thanks for the refresher.

No...... The Shadow Caster is a big bird. Not quite as big as the ghost... but she looks to be outrider or falcon sized.

For some reason bigger ships seems to be the thing for Rebels production team. As for the greebles complaint..... It seems that with Rebels the "hero ships" are more streamlined and almost look more well maintained (Less open hataches.... exposed ables.... etc) than thier Ep IV-VI counterparts.

I'dd personally like to see it with both Scum and Rebel pilots and generics.

Nym should be a Rebel only.

And then we should have Sabine's teacher: Ketsu Onyo as both a Rebel and a scum pilot...as in 2 cards (ala Fett, Scarlett, etc).

Then maybe one more Scum unique, and then 2 generics (one rebel, one scum). Yes this would be less overall named piltos for larges (2 per faction as opposed to 3) but I think it works well.

I like the idea for pilots, like Sabine's sister, but why rebel pilots? Also, Ketsu could be a level 7 pilot.

Nym was a Rebel..same with Ketsu (Sabine's siser/teachers). Nym is even a Rebel in Armada. And Ketsu is a Rebel in the show now. Or at least each of them worked with the Rebels at times, much like how Fett worked with the Empire a few times so they made him Imperial.

Plus it would be nice for Rebels and Scum to have a cross faction ship like Imperials and Sum do, so something slightly different but still the same.

Ketsu is a bounty hunter for the Black Sun and a spy for the Empire. She set the Rebels up "The Forgotten Droid". SCUM.

Rebels and Scum already have 2 cross faction ships, the z95 and y-wing

That's actually one of the subtle things I like about what I've seen of Rebels. It represents a sort of transition point from the sleek, clean prequel-era designs to the dirtier, less polished OT era.

Ketsu is a bounty hunter for the Black Sun and a spy for the Empire. She set the Rebels up "The Forgotten Droid". SCUM.

So she would fit in with the REBELs and SCUM!

As for cross faction ships Ywng and Z-95 (edit: and HWK), I was really referring to a cross faction pilot not ship - Again Nym and Ketsu both fit that. Since Nym is a pirate, but also works with the Rebels quite a bit. And as I pointed out already, so does Ketsu.
