In specific, I agree it is Demolisher. However, you cannot have an all-Demolisher fleet, as it is a one-off.

In general, the CR90A+TRC combination. Which, helpfully, cannot be taken alongside Demolisher.

Here come the Arquietens...

Arquitens is going to rock so hard!

You know... you can also put Fighter Coordination Team on CR90s and Arquitens.... So in addition to being fast and hitting hard with TRCs, now they can also reposition your squadrons!

There is no best ship really. Though I think if anything I would throw my hat on the Assault Frigate mk2. That is without any upgrades of course. Since you never specified with upgrades.

Ship includes upgrade icons. Hence you take the upgrades a ship is able to take into account.

Oh.

I thought this was supposed to be a question. Its the Demolisher.

Not the Gladiator, the Demolisher.

FTFY

I'm just going to call that ship Dr. Balance (like Dr. Boom). It can outrun any ship that can out-fight it and any ship that can outrun it can't.

If you consider titles, I believe that there are 3 stand-outs:

GSD w/Demo

Neb B Escort w/Yavaris

MC80 w/Mon Karren

NebB, because it's so **** sexy!

apparently, the best ship in the game is

Man, and i thought the Nebulon-B was an ugly ship! i kid, i kid.

MC80 w/Mon Karren

With or without XI-7?

That is one kick ass paint job!!

LE sigh my crusade continues MK an overcosted upgrade that statistically you can do even better with just x17s and a probable accuracy. It does help cases where they have three options. But you're going to take x17s anyways and with MK you are just doubling up most of the time.

MK does the following:

-it hurts the "brace & redirect" combo just like xi7s.

-it hurts contain tokens.

-it makes it harder to evade for important ships such as the gladiator , assault frigate and raider.

this means that, comparing "xi7s" to "mon karren without xi7s", mon karren is superior. for just 2 points, you also hurt contains and evades. you cannot argue with that. just because the "xi7s and mon karren" combo is overpriced, doenst mean that "mon karren without xi7s" is also overpriced.

(GASP! HERESY! NO XI7S ON A LARGE SHIP!)

VSD I

Bright Hope packing a bomber command center supported by X-Wings. It's the MC Hammer of Armada.

Keyan Farlander

MC75 by far. Seems like a jack-of-all-trades, but a master of all as well.

Interdictor definitely. He can set the board in his favor, ignore defense tokens (HIE) and has incredible defense (Targeting Scrambler + Brunson).

I'd take a 117 'dictor vs any 150 points.

Wow, this takes me back (and that GSD paintjob is killer @Drasnighta)

I wonder what people would agree is the best ship today? I'd probably guess at some variant of the Imperial Star Destroyer for Imperials, and the MC75 for Rebels.

Looking back, and that close up, I can see the little tweaks and mistakes I made... But then I have to remind myself, I painted that entirely by hand and by brush - as I didn't have an Airbrush back then...

I like me some pod of Hammerheads with external racks, Boarding Troopers and Taskforce Organa.

Its real fun playing them, and they can deliver some serious punch.

Ahh it is glorious...

I no joke have it sitting on my desk next to my Computer. It is my Vassal Mascot

What unholy necromancy is this??? 😆

But seriously, that paint job still rocks, @Drasnighta.

As far as the best ship in the game, I happen to be a Gladiator specialist....it's my signature ship. Not just Demo, either. I run at least two in almost every fleet I make.

Home One. I have an unreasonable amount of success running 1-2 in a fleet. It’s my preferred Raddus drop. It’s my preferred Ackbar ship. It is my preferred combat carrier.

All they need to do to guarantee me running 1+ in every rebel fleet I ever play again is to give it the Chimaera treatment and give me a variant with a fleet command or fleet support slot and a variant with a weapons team slot.

EDIT: I don’t even really need the weapon slot one either. It just seems fair since ISDs have gotten some really good offensive buffs and will get more with the SSD.
