Worst Poll Ever

By jmswood, in X-Wing Off-Topic

SW dot com posted a poll for favorite ships from TLJ.

Somehow ski speeders make the list, but the RZ-2 isn’t even an option.

Worst poll ever.

What’s your favorite ship from TLJ?

I might pick the Libertine if I knew what it looked like, but in the absence of a good screen shot I have to go with the RZ-2.

Silencer!

Probably the Silencer, because it's the only new ship we see that's shown to be effective and dangerous.

Also because it's basically a very pointy TIE Avenger...

Poor Resistance Transport, I just want to cuddle my tiny GR-75 baby! I really want it in X-Wing.

Probably didn't include the a-wing since it barely qualifies as "new". It's like 90% the same as the original a-wing. I bet most casual fans can't even tell the difference.

Do you have a favorite? Or did you only come in here to say mine doesn’t count?

Your favorite can count, I was just explaining the likely reason why the a-wing wasn't included.

If I had to pick I guess I'd choose the resistance bomber as it's by far the most unique and interesting of the new vehicles in the movie. Some of the other resistance capital ships were decent too even though they didn't get much screen time.

@markcsoul I might agree with your reasoning about the A-wing if The Raddus hadn’t made the list. The coolest thing about the Raddus is the name; otherwise it’s Lumpy fish ship 2.0.

Still gotta say my favorite ship from TLJ is the Falcon.

For my favorite new ship, I think it's probably the Dreadnaught. Such a good idea, because as Rogue One and single-reactor ignitions show us, you don't need to completely obliterate a planet to wipe out all life on the planet. I think if Palpatine had thought of that instead of insisting on wasting all of his money on Death Stars, the war would've gone way differently.

And I also really agree with Admiral Deathrain about the Resistance Transport.
