Ok, I posted and I see there is a huge topic already about the N1- Naboo Starfighter, but what about its opposition, The Vulture droid.

like last time, post up ideas or comments you have, im interested on the feedback before I make the pilot cards for them.

Im thinking it would be similar to a tie in some aspects, maybe not as nimble, but around the same base.

3/2/4/0 ?

Pilot Skill locked at 6 perhaps, similar to IG-88?

Missle slot to start

Barrel roll, Lock, Focus, Evade

One idea i had regarding the droid ships is that they could all skip the Focus action. Only living seperatists would get it, which would be an interesting downside we havent seen so far in x wing.

I would go with

2/3/2/0 to 10 pts each

PS3: these are dumb trade federation droids, not high tech hunter killers like IG

missile or torp slot depending on if the trade federation version or not.

BR/TL/F/E

cannot equip modifications

Just gonna leave this here...

Love it thank you, but don't they need a target lock for the missles

The mod slot can be used for that.

How about a low PS default, but a non unique title that increases the Pilot Skill as you take multiples? Sort of an offshoot of the IG2000 Title.

I really like the idea, but why do Leebo, 4-LOM, IG-88, and Guri get a focus action when separatist droids do not? I suppose it is because the separatist droids are tied to the central control cluster.

I've had my own go at the Vulture for the custom card league.

One thing I wanted to do for droid ships is make it so that they cannot take the focus action.

However we got IG-88, and Chopper as a pilot for the VCX. So I guess Droids can use the force as well.

Vulture droids in particular had only one strength - extraordinary numbers. Read Outbound Flight for a synopsis of this (and to enjoy some Thrawn goodness). I'd go with something like:

Vulture Droid (9 points, generic)
ATT 2
AGI 2
HULL 3
SHLD 0
PS 1

With the title:
Swarm (Droid only, 0 points) (An homage to the TIE Only upgrades) - An auto-include, but a fairly limited one. A full swarm is PS 12.
During the combat phase, increase your pilot skill by one for each friendly ship with the Swarm title.
