New Ship: The Ark Angel

By CBowser, in X-Wing

For anyone not reading the Darth Vader Marvel comic series (you should be, it is awesome), this is the ship of Dr. Aphra. She is an accomplice of Darth Vader, and a space archaeologist. She's got two badass driods with her too, 0-0-0 or Triple Zero, and BT-1. In the picture below you can see the relative size with Vader's TIE Adv. docked to her ship. The ship looks totally decked out with weapons and tech. I'd love to see it on the table.

I'd agree.

But then I am a fan of big ships.

Looks like a Firespray with a tumor.

I like it.

It looks like a design mess to me :/

looks like if a firespray had sex with a JM5K and a gunboat

I agree but Id like to see more.

I just like space ships

and here I thought it'd be an ARK with even more s-foils

It's not a too-more!

(Sorry, couldn't resist)

That ship.

Has four TLT as base. :wacko:

That is too many turrets for me.

The X-Wing has four guns on it, that doesn't mean it shoots four times. Its firepower is abstracted and represented by three attack dice. This goes for almost all of the ships. I would expect nothing different here.

Meh, there's better ships to include.

GUNBOAT!

I have no idea what I am looking at, not a ship I care for!

I like some aspects of it, hate others. It does a good job of mimicing the Firespray without just being a Firespray mod, but what the heck is going on up top? There are like 3 or 4 things there that look like a grade schooler glued on to their science project last minute.

Which is very fitting for the Aphra character.

The comic can be really good and really dumb. For the most part good though.

I personally don't like the look of that ship but maybe if I saw a nice FFG 3D model of it i'd change my mind.

Some of the other comics introduced some neat looking ships too. The ones from the Kanan comic are Clone Wars era, but the scum-type ships seem to have more longevity anyway. (Firespray and YV-666 were both seen operating in that era.)

This is Nien Nunb's ship the Mellcrawler:

and one more: Sana "Solo's" ship:

If that was true there were no survivors. When GUNBOAT has sex with large ships they break in two. When GUNBOAT has sex with small ships they asplode.

It depends solely on who's behind. It tends to assplode just as easily as they do

Good lord. We aren't going to need to ever go back for the Legends ships at this rate. Sorry Gunboat fans, but until it makes an appearance in the Disney era of Star Wars, I'm struggling to see how it makes the cut.

That ship is one of the ugliest that I have ever seen. Just because it's Star Wars does not mean we need to gobble it.

Can we please have the TIE Avenger and Assault Gunboat already?! Jesus Christ.

Great images there. Can you add these pics to a thread that I have for Disney Canon ships?

Definitive Guide to Disney Non-Movie Canon Ships

I don't play imperial but if that ship came out looking like the image I'd consider switching (could also be scum). also the Sana Solo's ship looks great.

i like it. Only quark i'd have is its not very imperial looking, then again neither is Boba but hes only imperial because Scum wasnt a thing yet.

Would be great to have another Cannonboat, or better yet actually give the imperials a turret upgrade slot (since it kinda looks like it could 360 swivel between the two guns).

The Ark Angel should be an Imperial PWT with a 4 attack primary...

If it's a 4 dice PWT, it better have the same agility and health of a Y-wing and point cost like a VCX. And no EPT slot.

Terrible name, terrible design. Veto. There are lots of ships out there that can be added to the game that aren't completely awful.
