Wapole Languray posted:TIE Avenger is old canon actually. The TIE Advanced was better than anything else the Empire could make, but it was too expensive to put into mass production. The TIE Avenger is the mass-production version of the Advanced. AFAIK the development went: TIE Fighter-> TIE Interceptor->Tie Advanced->TIE Avenger->TIE Defender. Yeah, if we're going down the road of pretend ship development then Tekopo is right. It went TIE Fighter>TIE Advanced Prototype>TIE Advanced x1>TIE Interceptor>TIE Defender Avenger and Aggressor fit in wherever the gently caress because Legends.

I love that the bullseye arc is a core mechanic in 2.0. When the Kimogila came out I thought it was such a rad and simple concept but a shame that it couldn't be retroactively integrated into older ships.

Arquinsiel posted:And now all of this happened before Ep. IV because Rebels Ha yeah. I never even thought of that. It used to be that the Empire took the time between ESB and RotJ to even develop the Interceptor and deploy it sometime prior to Endor. Then X-Wing PC and TIE Fighter PC came out and kind of screwed that continuity up while adding a bunch of ships. Then more EU piled on to it and we ended up with some real doofy TIE varients that were canon. So I guess it's not terribad that Disney came along and sorted all that poo poo but made most of that TIE design progression happen before Yaven.

OniPanda posted:At least the rebellion not having the newer ships at Yavin IV that rebels has shown makes some sort of sense, rebel cells each have their own equipment and all that. But the empire not havin the best designs on the death star is a harder sell. Kiiinda. Defender program was stopped after it was sabotaged and Thrawn went MIA. The Interceptor was only flown by the top Aces until they threw all of them at Endor. The Death Star didn't need the best fighter escort because it was a laser moon and Vader was on it with his kick rear end Adv x1 and a couple of Black Squadron.

DogCop posted:A YV-666 pincer attack with Bossk coming from the front and Moralo teleporting from behind is gonna be my jam. Hopefully they make the Nashtah Pup worthwhile too. Just ditch the Nashta Pup entirely. You shouldn't be rewarded for losing a ship by getting another ship. Put your points into something else that will help your 666 survive.

Wonder how long it's going to be before we get any rules for First Order or Resistance. Because unless some place holder ones show up close to or around the 2.0 launch there gonna be alot of Poe's sitting on a shelves for a while next to Rey Falcons, Batwings and a bunch of TIEFO's, special forces or otherwise.

canyonero posted:FFG sent me a Ghost when the male end of the peg snapped off in the female end attached to the ship. I was really impressed. Sounds like a real sneaky way to get yourself a 2 for 1 and then immediately magnet mod one or both. Not that I suggest doing anything of the sort.

What annoys me so far, and this is my sole gripe from what I've seen and it has little to no bearing on the game, is that fuckin epic nobody Heffrey Tobber is still a U-Wing pilot. Still no K2S0!

I kind of hope the actual physical model fits into the Falcon now. But I won't be too disappointed if it doesn't. quote:It's not clear if this version also has a ventral gun turret, but old expanded universe designs for the stock YT-1300 light freighter depict it with a sole dorsal quad laser cannon, with the Falcon's ventral turret being one of Han's many upgrades. Saw the movie and ya, Landos Falcon does not have a ventral gun turret. It only has the one top mounted single barrel cannon turret.

Big Mean Jerk posted:It has a ventral turret, Beckett specifically says that’s where he’s going and uses it in the maelstrom chase. It’s also on the Revell model I have, so there’s definitely two turrets. They’re just single barrel. I stand corrected!

Find some cubic zirconia and spot bedazzle those motherfuckers. A couple on the weapon hard points. Maybe a couple of big ones for the engines. They'll see you rolling and there's even a high chance that they'll also be hating as a result.

Man, you'd make so little off that lot that if I were you I'd just find some cool kid at your FLGS watching in awe near an X-Wing table and be like "don't get cocky" as you handed him/her a bag of plastic spaceships. At least, that's what I plan on doing if I ever hard exit the game due to running out of closet space or some poo poo.
