As a 2005 battlefront fan I would love to see the Belbullab-24 and the Theta class shuttle so that I can fly the classic Battlefront 2 line up of ships. I also want Mankvim-814 because I think it would look good and add more variety to the separatists by adding more corporation ships. (also I am fan of the Techno Union). with the Belbullab-24 I am thinking maybe add a configuration slot and be done with it although I would love to see a standalone ship.

• Interceptor or shuttle are moderately likely.
  • Republic could probably stand to have a classic shuttle.
  • For CIS ships that haven't been released yet that are prominent in movies/TV, we're looking at, what 3 ships (listed below)? So Mankvim aren't too unlikely as time passes:
    • Sheathipede light shuttle
    • Ginivex/Fanblade like Asajj has sometimes flown
    • Rogue Fighters that MangaGuards and sometimes Cad Bane fly.
• Belbullab-24 seems less likely, but config to add a bomb slot and ordnance. Give Gizor Dellso a pilot ability which interacts with those, maybe a multi-dot limited ship with a minor ability in place of a generic.

I did not realize that the BF2c version had been canonized before. Neat. Yeah, they might put that in the blister pack as a config when they get around to it. That'd be great. Mankvin at some point I'd imagine, it does fit the style and needs of the design space. Now the Theta and ETA Class shuttles, that gets tricky. I'd be cool with doing both. But which one first, and then how long till the second, that's a tough one. I'd imagine one of them would be in the next ship wave some time from now after all the current announced stuff has been out. But there's also the Nubian designs to look forward too

I could see a configuration coming out for the B-22. Personally, I think FFG has got other things to deal with, but it is certainly a possibility in future waves. If it were to get released, I dont think it is worthy of a whole new ship. I know there was a bomber version of the N-1 too, so if there is a config for the Bellyrub, then the N-1 should get it too.

I don't thin it is canonized but it was a different ship when it came out. It was also mentioned in a Clones Wars role play game.

I thought back then that'd make it canon? I know it's technically not now, but then I thought it was.

the Mankvim is the only fighter featured in a Star Wars movie that isnt in the game, and its one of what, 4 seperatists ships they even have the option to add?

Now that the resistance and first order are completely done theyll likely focus on Scum, Seperatists and the Republic. Scum will get the Twilight, Republic gets Clone Z95s, Seperatists get Mankvim

There's still stuff for FO and Resistance aplenty. Res Y-wings and B-wing. FO tie bombers and such.

Sadly, were stuck with the ST for a good while.*Throws up a little in mouth*

I think that the Rogue class star-fighter is much more likely. The magnaguards are fairly iconic, and the ship was in 5 different Clone wars episodes, not to mention popping up in the Mandelorian. Also, how cool would it be to fly Grievous with an entourage of magnaguards.

Gotta' say, never liked that the Belbullab was cast as a bomber but it was in BFII by the the best frakking ship in the game to use for... Basically any task. Seeing one cough out bombs in this sans reload would honestly actually be really interesting. Don't much care for the Theta shuttle myself but there's V-19 esque space available for the Mankvim tbh.

I thought they had already teased the Porax-38?

Regardless I bet youre right that we get P38s in game before the Mankvim. Prettiest ship from the Prequels by a longshot. It isnt a CIS ship though, as the Rogue class were stolen P38s and the Seperatists only had a handfull of them.

I expect the Porax to be a Scum ship with 1 or 2 seperatist pilots, similar to the Havoc in 1st edition. Scum gets 4+ pilots while seperatists only get Magnaguard and maybe 1 ace.
