Possible CANON First Order Epic ship!!!

By RoK 98, in X-Wing

First let me say I don't expect this happening for a long time. Not unless we see this ship in Episode VIII.

Second. I was actually looking for what a future First Order and New Republic fleet might look like for Armada.

Thanks to the Poe Dameron comic, this ship has a picture and to my surprise I'd seen it before. When I saw it in The Clone Wars CGI series I thought it looked and operated a bit too advanced for it's time. According to Wookieepedia, it was a ship used by Tarkin until he got an ISD.

It is called Carrion Spike, and here is where I found it, in the order I found it:

Thats one is associated more with Tarkin in my opinion. Of course that doesn't mean it is a good idea, would even be a pretty cool way to release both OT and ST content with that ship.

Don't think its likely to come out any time soon, though. If FFG releases a new epic at all thats going to be something for scum.

Even I'd like to see Scum get two Epics first.

Little further digging comes up that this is a Stealth Ship called Carrion Spike. The original Stealth Ship was less than 100 meters, and Tarkin's ship the Carrion Spike was based on that design and measured about 150 meters.

The Carrion Spike is based off the Stealth Ship from TCW.

Looks quite phallic. I can already imagine the nicknames for that one...

That is a pretty boring looking design.

People didn't want the Lancer, you really expect them to want this?

Frankly there's no pleasing everyone. As shown by the heated dispute going on over Heroes of the Resistance.

One person saying "people didn't want....." hardly speaks for the entire community. How many "people" hate the Raider (I do) and how many think it's cool?

The point is almost everyone was against the Lancer, which looks practically the same.

You are the first person I see to dislike the Raider (although I wasn't active when it was announced)! I love it and everything it stands for. Its amazing that FFG got that level of recognition from Lucasfilm.

The Lancer-class Frigate looks like a contender.

I was hoping FFG would squeeze the scale to give us the Imperial Cruiser from SW:Rebels. (With Dock/Deploy rules for Shuttles and TIE's.) I think it wouldn't be too big, just 5-6" longer than the Raider? Then perhaps they will design a Mon Calamari ship.

It reminds me of an arrow. I'd like a more detailed imagining of it someday.

Oh! I like the CLone Wars model of it. I can get behind that as a ship. It has enough details in it to be interesting even though the base outline isn't that complex.

Unfortunately a comic book cartoon picture doesn't always do ships justice. Fortunately I'd just been watching TCW recently.

Here's the original from the Clone Wars Episode:

This one looks much less boring and would make for a much cooler mini.

Interestingly, it could come with a First Order pilot (Terex), a Scum/Rebel pilot (Berch Teller),and an Imperial pilot (Tarkin), and maybe a generic pilot for the one faction without a named pilot.

With it having a built in stealth system, it would be cool to package it with a TIE Phantom and some new pilots (including 2 different possible rebel pilots flying the Phantom). The scenario could be some sort of stealth test or rebels stealing the Phantom. You could also make title for the phantom that gets rid of stealth and makes it the V-38. All this would have to be recanonized. Other than Rookie One's origin being almost EXACTLY the same as Luke's it isn't a bad story. If they really wanted to throw in another small ship that doesn't have a second ship, Rookie One flew a Y-wing.

I've got a feeling that a Scum epic ship will also include new ship cards and a dial to re purpose and Imperial Gozanti as a scum ship.

YEAH... It would not hurt my feelings at all to get this badass bastard into ARMADA... but it is way to big for FFG to use in our first love: X-WING.

:wub:

TRUE...

:lol: :D ^_^

Apparently in Before the Awakening they've got at least one Lancer as a canon First Order ship...

The day the Resurgent Class Star Destroyer is announced for Armada is the day I begin collecting Armada :) oh yeah :)

But rejoice my bank account for I don't foresee that anytime soon. Allowing me to concentrate on X-Wing and.....a few other projects.

FFG is sneaky... they actually could do this this year. They did lie like (lovable) dam-doggs about Wave 8 after all... beware Brah(s)!!!

BEWEARS 'EM!!!
