My experience...enjoy slowly amassing enought ships to display one ISD's fighter wing.

12 Tie Bombers...

12 Tie Interceptors...

Etc.

...72 TIE Fighters...

Only 48 Tie Fighters. 12 of them scouts.

Objectives fullfiled: Interceptors and Bombers.

Only 24 Tie Fighters.

And one day, one day... 7 feet long ISD. One day...

Isn't it supposed to be*:

  • 48 TIE Fighters
  • 12 TIE Bombers
  • 12 TIE Interceptors
  • 8 Lambda-Class Shuttles
  • 5 Alpha-Class Star Wing Assault Gunboats

Because, I mean, if you're not building your X-Wing collection based on the compliment of an Imperial Star Destroyer, what's the point?

*Insert appropriate amounts of TIE Advanced, Defenders, Punishers, etc based upon Imperial testing and deployment patterns. See local Moff or Sector Admiral for details.

Mmmm... 8 Lambda? I only own 4. I was 99% sure only 4.

No hangar space available.

Noooooooooo

Well, I assume as with any military organization, the exact numbers will vary slightly. After all, poor Needa had to use a TIE Shuttle to go see Lord Vader.

I would go with:

36 TIE/LN Fighters
8 TIE/SA Bombers
4 TIE/IT Punishers
12 TIE/IN Interceptors
4 TIE/D Defenders
8 Alpha-Class Star Wing Assault Gunboats.

One day, when X-wing stops, I will buy up all the collections....

Literally I have everything except the TIE Bomber.

Does anyone know anything about this guy?

Some of his stuff is pretty cool.

Yeah, nice acrylic template set that suits your desire, maybe a mat too. Painting is fun (arguably half my fun of the game; odd given how great they look out of the box, usually), though for Imperials I prefer clean uniformity as opposed to the odd paibtjobs and dirty, damaged weathering I put on my Scum and Rebel ships. For Imperials I like keeping their factory paintjobs, but adding dim red canopy lighting, engine glow, and covering up the effing "laser nozzle" glow on the front of the TIE/LN because why would cannons that fire green shots glow pink?

Iron out your home and portable storage solutions.

That said, play Imperial until you puke, then maybe borrow some Scum and Rebel and see how it feels. Not even to necessarily start playing them, but to better understand how they work.

It feels. . .dirty. Scummy, even.

I gotta shower.

I find your lack of bombers disturbing.

I recently purchased a kit from Alien Luxury Miniatures to convert one of my extra TIE Advanced Prototypes (I needed a few copies of Chips) into a TIE Hunter from Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike. Going to paint it to match the rest of my imperial blue fleet.

Why are these ships not in the game? I clicked on that link and about lost my tidbits. That is a sexy ship.

Dear FFG,

My birthday is in April. Wink,wink. Nudge, nudge.
