New Empire Ship Confirmed!!

By atkrull, in X-Wing

Here is a picture of Darth Vader's new ship in the first issue of the Darth Vader comic.

I am predicting: Large Base, 1 crew, turret, systems, and 2 torpedo slots. EPT on darth vader PS 9, with barrel roll, focus, target lock. This may be ship we have been looking for!

Darth Vader on a large ship will be so much fun. If it can natively barrel roll it's going to be kinda silly though.

Why?

Dead sexy.

makes perfect sense, empire is the only faction without a ps9 large base and the only faction without a native re-positional action on a large base. so why not give us both in one ship:)

Any ideas for other pilots or what it would cost, all flip around maneuvers will be white of course :P

If it can barrel roll native, with engine upgrade Vader can arcdodge like Dash, at PS11.

Hardly "Confirmed!"... <_<

im a fan of the look of the punisher and I even think that ship looks ugly.

I don't think you understand what confirmed means.

Looks like a Scimitar (Sith Infiltrator) , but in a more ungainly and uglier way.

It's Vader's Sith Infiltrator, most sith apprentices had one, see on the bottom left:

So a new ship design shows up in a canon comic book and it's not a confirmation of a new ship. I never said it is a confirmed x wing miniatures ship.

Just curious, but what Star Wars comic only ship (besides E-wing) have ever made it to X-wing? And by comic only I mean not found anywhere else.

Shara Bey from Princess Leia's comic.

Because you could give it Engine Upgrade. Boost+Barrel roll with no stress is pretty strong on a large ship.

Don't get me wrong. I want it 100%. But we're Imperials. We don't get nice things :P

Ship, not pilot. ARC-170 is a prequel ship.

Show me a comic only ship, that's never been any other source.

I could get behind an ace pack with an Imperial Firespray in those colors...

Its as close to the firespray as this new ship is to the Sith Infiltrator.

Oddly enough though, it wasn't assigned to him. He stole it from some scavengers. Now, those scavengers might have stolen it from another Sith, but if not, it's not really a "Sith Infiltrator". And who had it before that flies around in something that looks like a Sith Infiltrator?

Isnt this the opposite of confirmed?

I want the Archangel too, btw. And a Scum/ Imperial Wookie ship in blue for everyone's favorite Black walking carpet.

And yes, very sloopy/misleading thread title

Eh...I think I'd rather have the Rogue Shadow . But that's Legends now, so I'm not holding my breath.

The E-Wing is hardly comic only. It apperared in several novels (e.g. Luke flew one for some time) and PnP sourcebooks.
