Yeah, I did the same.

Since it’s there, I really hope some bit of the stats is different.

Again.

We agree on something! LoL I was just thinking the same thing when I read the table of contents.

look at the table of contents posted right above your comment, the ground vehicles section mentions two subs

Ah. At work and Imgur is blocked. I will look later.

Just this weekend I spent some time stating out a Impstar Deuce and putting it on SWSheets. Then this happens. Dang it.

Don't worry, they won't do it again.😉

They actually did. I also stated out the Victory II.

There are two: Bongo Submarine and the Keelkana-Class Attack Submersible.

It seems they included every capital ship from Star Wars: Armada, included the newly released Onager and Starhawk.

I meant that, after this product, it'll be a pretty safe bet that anything not already detailed will be safe to home stat without worry that it will later be 'challenged' by a later release of official stats. However, I'm glad this one could happy-touch you twice.

Perhaps an odd question...

However, if anyone here has ever used the Corporate Sector Authority in their Edge campaigns...? Well, I have to assume you included the Marauder-class corvette, but which fighters did you have the CSA employ?

Did you stat out your own IRD fighters or did you use TIE/ln fighters like those seen in the comic strip adaptation of Han Solo at Star's End (which actually flat-out stated the CSA was using Imperial fighters)? Or something else? Scyk interceptors maybe?

It's serendipity, because I have exactly the same question. I'm planning on using the CSA and the Interstellar Collections Limited in my upcoming campaign.

Cloakshape or Headhunters work perfectly well for those. In particular, Cloakshape can represent both versions depending upon whether it mounts the stabilizer.

Well, for new stuff (I think), we get:

Kom'rk-class "Gauntlet" Fighter (Mandalorian equivalent to the U-wing but considerably better) on page 53.

TIE/rb "Brute" Heavy Starfighter (outrigger-armed heavy TIE) on page 62.

Kalwvalan Star Yacht (as see in Solo) on page 88.

Assault Frigate Mk. II (as seen in the initial Armada releases) on page 107.

Cantwell-class Arrestor Cruiser (not sure where this is from) on page 109.

Gozanti-class Armed Transport (armed and equipped with TIEs as seen in Rebels) on page 115.

The Death Star II on page 128.

Executor-class Star Dreadnought (FINALLY!!!) on page 130.

Imperial II-class Star Destroyer on page 136.

Onager-class Star Destroyer on page 141.

Starhawk-class Battleship on page 143.

Ibhave to laugh because the fang fighter was joked about and is in the book.

Yeah, I got to have some fun with that one. :D

I guess I have an issue with the Z-95s being used as those were the "hero" starfighters that engaged the CSA force in Han Solo at Star's End.

Looking at the table of contents, this covers just about all the age of rebellion era ships in Armada and X-Wing. What a lovely parting gift. I’ll be getting this for sure.

And, a few ships that aren’t in either of these games but could be...

Why? I mean, I understand why, but why? That...thing is hideous, and I've hated it since Empire at War.

I kinda agree, but hey. More stats. Perhaps you have a rebel cell with a bad fashion sense? I'da preferred the Mk. I, as that's a nice blend of Dreadnought-class and Mon Cal aesthetic, but hey. It's stats.

I always thought it was kinda cute. And fit the rebels. Heavy fire power (going by eaw) and small for maneuvering and escape detection

Cute? CUTE!? It's a warship! Warships aren't supposed to be CUTE! :D

It was actually one of my least favorite units in EaW because it was too middling to be of much use, and it didn't look great. I mostly used the Neb-B, MC-30c, and MC-80, with a healthy helping of fighters thrown into the mix.

It does sort of fit the Rebels, it just feels a bit too much of an original design. Most of their stuff is repurposed Mon Cals, cobbled together, or stolen (or a Mon Cal design that looks like Mon Cal ships [MC-30c]). The Mk. II just seemed a bit... off there by itself.

I think a certain forum member and her A Wing would disagree...

If we are going to talk ugly, p. 76. Action VI Bulk Transport, the Dustbuster of transports.

Flying crates are good for business! :D

I've got a soft spot for slab-sided cargo ships.

The handle on top makes it look like one of those toy carry cases (like the firetruck with a bunch of smaller vehicles inside), and now that I've had that thought, I really want an Action IV duffel bag.

Would it have helped if they had produced the Mk. I? It shows its Dreadnought lineage much more clearly.

Yes, I like the Mk. I.

So some people DID play the rebels. Though I can't understand what's wrong with the Majestic Pizza Slices... :D

I did, but only once. I prefer to play as the Empire or Zann Consortium because I like their ships/vehicles/heroes better (T2-Bs flat out stink. I hate them. They are made out of glass and paper).

Haven't played the base game in a while as I've been fooling around with Thrawn's Revenge and Awakening of the Rebellion. I've so far only played the Rebellion in AotR (1 full campaign and one that I was about half way through when the mod updated and I lost it), but I rarely play the New Republic in Thrawn's Revenge (2 campaigns), preferring to play the various warlord factions (Pentastar Alignment twice, Greater Maldrood twice, Imperial Remnant twice). I'm actually playing as the New Republic now (Emperor's Mother how I hate their ground vehicles. Too slow* or too pathetically weak) because I wanted to see their era 4/5 ships (New-Class: Majestic, Nebula, Endurance, Viscount), and in my previous campaign I'd pretty much conquered everything by the time I got to that era (cuz the shtoopid Imp leaders never show their faces 😠). I've got to say, one of the main things I like about playing as the Imperial factions is their ground forces, particularly the Penstastar Alignment and the Greater Maldrood because of the high quantity of Clone Wars tech (Saber Tanks, yes please :D)

*seriously. AT-ATs are faster.

This was probably far more information than anyone was looking for, but enjoy! :wacko:
