B-Wings. I like a slow, methodical game, and flying a few in formation can pack a mean punch.
A ship that "clicks" with you.
I've enjoyed a lot of ships, particularly the Kwing and Awing, but somehow I've really clicked with generic T65s. My mind is better at dial level strategy than with post dial maneuver I guess. I've out maneuvered Fel and Rau with humble Rookies and Reds more than they've beaten me when I have an Xwing heavy list.
Uh, is it safe?
Y-wings the work horse of...
Give me the named Scum HWKs.
I love to fly all 3 together with a Z95 for backup. Win or lose it's always fun!
My list building almost always goes like
"This ship looks really fun! Now...how many Z-95s can I have?"
The Starviper forever and always
A-Wing - Best looking ship in the Star Wars universe is a good start. Dial is fantastic, feels right, and moves to fast if your not careful. You can snap in and out of range with lots of options on defense. Fragile once you get hit but thats part of the fun really.
Favorite A-Wing
Jake - Expose, Outmaneuver, Auto Thrusters.
Turrets make it less fun, but turrets on anything other than Han or Rey Falcon or Attack Shuttle always make it less fun.
So yea Jake A-Wing clicks.

The Starviper.
It has:
Autothrusters.
FCS.
3 Agility.
5 health.
2 point Illicit or torpedo or an upgrade from FCS to Sensor Jammer.
Attanni Mindlink.
Guri's pilot ability which means if Carnor closes to range one of her my whole list gets a focus token.
An deluxe maneuver dial with the full array of one speed maneuvers.
A great action bar.
although I refused to play it for the longest time, I click very well with the Inquisitor.. something about playing a slow interceptor just feels right
StarViper all-day. I have played Guri so much and with advanced sensors she can be anywhere. It beautiful :-D
The Ghost is my favorite Rebel ship. I have a list I want to play 100 times. I am 1/4th of the way there with only 2 losses and still loving it.
I really like the Protectorate for Scum. The model speaks to me. So much so that I had to buy into scum. I was previously only a rebel player.
Guess they both have mad dice and personality.
STRIKERS!
Give me 5 Strikers with Lightweight Frame and Adaptive Ailerons and look out!!!
Fly and shoot, that's my game!
E-Wings and A-Wings here. I keep going back and forth between them. love them.
The ARC suits me to a tee. Love that ship; feel I get the most out of it every time.
I'm falling in love with both the Tie/SF and Arc. I'm loving these rear-facing arcs. Backdraft and Norra... so nasty when they shoot out their backsides!
For me it was the Defender. I loved trying to make them playable pre-imperial veterans. Then I felt like he meta came to me rather than I chasing it. I sill love them but I took them to regionals took 7th, and then the nerf came and I felt like it was time to put them aside.
I am currently courting the G1-A I'll let you know how things go. I don't know if I love them or just mind-link.
Edited by HrathenBack when I got into this game, it was the A-Wing. At my first tournament I used a Prototype Pilot with Stealth Device and it was amazing how fun boosting around was. The way A-Wings play nowadays I feel like they click less with me.
I also felt like I was getting pretty good mileage compared to others out of the Defender with an Ion Cannon before Imperial Veterans. Now with the TIE/D and the Ion Cannon they can really pack a punch, and I even managed to win a couple Regionals dice thanks to Vessery with an Ion Cannon a couple weekends ago.
Backdraft has also served me well, but I feel like that's partially just the fact that I tend to roll like a god when rolling for Backdraft's defense.
Lastly, Deathfire is slowly clicking together for me, getting a good missile shot in and then going in for further damage with Cluster Mines has been great fun.
It isn't already in the game , but dang, it will click with me.
D E C I M A T O R -- it was love at first maneuver.

Why VTs on Jake? He gets it for free if he takes a focus action.

Yep. It's sad, because I can really make him dance.
Robots..sadly they aren't viable right now.
Also Lancaster aka Shadow Caster.. Asajj with Lats razzi goes far!
Far out!!
And i predict my future by saying that Scurrg will be one of those ships that i love! Anxious to get next preview of that. Only dial can screw it up pretty much!
