Scum Ahsoka silver Angel?

By Vontoothskie, in X-Wing

So most of us probably watch clone wars, and in the new season there are some excellent ships per usual.

one of the better ones is the Silver Angel, which is clearly the perfect size for X-wing. Also, Scum Ahsoka as a pilot? **** yeah.

I figure large base, lots of hull, light shield, 3 red turret, a dial thats fast but not very manueverable. maybe 3/2/10/2? crew, crew, illicit, mod, mod.

could be cool. thoughts?

No way. No ship should have 2 agi and that many hit points.

Honestly, I felt that story arc was much weaker than the arc that came before it or the current arc in the final season. But that is somewhat par for the course with Clone Wars: mixed bag of story arcs.

That said, if we got the ship chassis I’d be absolutely down for another Ahsoka pilot. It would force FFG’s hand to explain how dark side force abilities work (currently letting the one scum pilot take it) because thematically Ahsoka wouldn’t be a candidate for Hate.

Oh, and I like the idea of Ahsoka and Maul teaming up much in the same way I was happy with the old days of 2.0 with Han gunner with Boba

Han pilot with Jabba crew and Greedo gunner. 😁

2 red turret and 1 agility. Could be a cheap support ship and/or blocker.

Scum Ahsoka would be cool, indead.

So.... the Scum Falcon? 🙂 Or if you’re going blocker, the jm5k?

Needs to be different enough from the 1300 or from the jm5k to be worthwhile IMO.

True, but that's where the ship and pilot abilities can make it more unique.

Besides, one more force user in Scum is always welcome.

It's not that much beefier than the Lancer-class, (or Rey Falcon), not exactly breaking the game, and easily balanced with points.

They cannot take Ahsoka from the end of season 5 leaving the Jedi Order to get along immediately with the Mandalorian story. Ahsoka has to live by her own to give her the time to realize things. This arc is a mental preparation for Ahsoka. With this in mind, I found it pretty interesting.

Obviously, the last episode was one of the best of the series, but the bacjground story was simply mandatory.

My 2 cents are going on the Bad Batch that will sacrifice themselves to help Rex escape.

To answer the starting threat, maybe this ship will be in X-Wing, but it's more a transport than a fighting ship. I see this as large ship 2 attack front arc, 1 defense, 6-7 hull, and 3-4 shields.

This is all irrelevant until we get the Razorcrest. That ship has much more potential and we got a full season of it (plus another on the way) which would make far more sense than a large boring ship like the Silver Angel. Heck at the rate releases are coming we could get Ahsoka in the Razorcrest expansion since she'll be in season 2!

And the Razorcrest is irrelevant until we get the TIE Brute.

Line jumpers will be ejected from the park.

Lol yeah, just what we need, another Imperial TIE variant. JK.... sorta. I will concede that the Imps have the fewest ships out of the older 3 factions, and this would at least likely be fairly different being a heavier hitter. But it's not even been a prominent ship on screen on legends, don't think it has a claim to being in any sort of line.

that ship is roughly the size of the yt1300 and built like a brick. Judging by the shots of the rear cargo bay you could easily park an A-wing inside it. To me X-wing designers have always misjudged hull values a bit, shrinking them for tougher ships to make the game faster. I think with so many ships being essentially variants of the same archetype that its time for some new ones, ans "fast brick that cant turn well" is relatively unexplored for scum

exactly. thas why i thought 3 turret and but less maneuverable.

also the gun the showed looked beefy, more like the shadowcasters blaster turret than anything else.

As always in clone wars things change a bit from shot to shot, but that thing looks like its made as a civilian version of the Kimigola, or at least barrows heavily from it.

True, we all know the Razorcrest is scums next ship, followed by some reprints. Doesnt mean additional new ships arent on the way

You couldn't just multi-quote there, @Vontoothskie ? 😛

I mean, we already have a 10, sometines 11-hp ship with what is effectively 3 agility in Boba. This could not be any worse.

Actually, I believe FFG has already indicated the TIE Brute is at the front of the line.

The main reason I think we won't see the Razorcrest soon (possibly even a couple of years) is that FFG is tired of get caught with their design pants around their lore ankles by putting out cinematic-release ships too fast.

We've seen too little of the Razorcrest yet to know all its secrets.

And other factions want for ships more than S&V, so there is really no hurry on FFG'S part.

I don't think Scum or Imps NEED a new ship anytime soon. Saying we haven't seen enough of Razorcrest in the same topic about the Brute is hilarious. We've seen an awful lot more of the Mando's ship than the Brute. FFG is in a tough spot because yes, the ship could show some cool tricks in the next season they were unaware of and then the release may not be all that it could be. But hot **** it would sell if they put it out. The 4 newer factions are the factions that need ships, they are lagging way behind the original 3, but have to keep the OG players with all those old ships happy with some new content too.

The point is this:

Gonna see the Brute again?? Doubt it.

Gonna see the Razorcrest again?? For sure.

Ergo, which ship is more likely to have obvious design errors in 2 years??

Lol so because a ship got barely shown on a screen (in the least successful Star Wars movies) and will likely never be shown again, it should be brought in before much more famous and popular ships. Gotcha 👌

OMFG.

The point is that FFG got burned several times producing ships like the BSF-17 Bomber (wrong name} and the TIE Silencer (wrong size} because they produced them too early.

I doubt they want to do that with the Razorcrest, so they will not make that ship without more screen time, since it will see that screen time and evolve in the next seasons of The Mandalorian.

They'd probably just give Ahsoka a line that says, "You may equip Light Side upgrades and cannot equip Dark Side upgrades" in her pilot ability. Scum Ahsoka crew would similarly get a "You may equip Light Side upgrades," opening things up for Asajj.

How much screentime did the quadjumper have before it reached the stores 😋

I could have. dont like multiquotes though.

Absolutely agree on the hull though. a low mobility 3/2/10/2 is less scary than the Shadowcaster, Firespray, Falcon, Outrider, etc. Plus adjustable points means it would get balanced eventually

I thought the ship looked like a flying brick, so perhaps instead if 2 agility, how about 0 agility?

Scum has no 0 aglity ships, so that could differentiate it. Maybe 10-12 hull with 2 Shield?

I actually like this idea. Scum deci/VCX could work as something not yet done for the faction.
