Unnamed Cassian Andor TV show, the Raider-class Corvette and other possibilities

By weisguy119, in X-Wing Epic Play

Who’s hoping we get to see our glorious FFG-created Raider on the small screen? This show seems like a perfect opportunity for the ship to appear onscreen. Cassian is an intelligence operative/assassin. It’s unlikely he’ll be infiltrating Star Destroyers. I could see raids on smaller Imperial installations guarded by smallerImperial fleets. Raiders and Gozantis would fit that bill. Perhaps, we’ll even see raids on TIE Phantom or TIE Avenger production facilities and the like, though those would most certainly be guarded by ISDs. Star Wars Rebels centered around a small rebel cell and a TIE Defender facility, so there’s hope. Lots of possibilities here and I’m super-excited for the show. I’m not the biggest fan of Mandalorians. Yeah, people think Boba’s armor is cool and all but we’ve been down that road. Repeatedly. Mandos are kind of played out IMO. Sleezy Rebel assassin cells could really make for some good stories, however. Those stories could feature some of our favorite Legends ships and, possibly, even the magnificent Raider. I envision lots of opportunities for custom scenarios based on this show.

I think that’s definitely possible, as it’s also been used in Canon a fair bit. It was in Battlefront II, a Star Wars comic and The Thrawn book.

Also really looking forward to hopefully see more K-2SO.

Which comic issue was it in? I collect the Star Wars and Vader comics but have fallen way behind in reading them.

I think it was one of the Star Wars Adventures Comics when the rebels are evacuating Yavin IV

given that he does special ops and intel work, they could easily have a unit similar to Inferno Squad as a recurring antagonist for him.
