Don't forget the "uglies"
X-ties (x-wings with Tie bodies)
Y-Ties (Y wing pylons, and Tie figter bodies)
then there's the X wing fuselage with Tie solar panels (forget what they're called, Tie wing I think)
No I'm not pulling this stuff out of my butt, these are out of the EU, though I apologize for not having a link.

For my votes I'd say:
YT-2400 Transport
Tie Defender
E-Wing
Tie Defender
E-Wing
The rebels choice of ships seems a little weak on the ground comaired tothat ofthe imperials and have to be careful to make sure that they would fit within the current timeline of the game. I'm not so sure the E-Wing would but hey.
Be nice If the YT-2400 was in the game that the imperials and rebels got a new ship design equal to it like the Decimator and Nova currentlyare to the YT-1300.

FuryoftheStars, I would agree with you for the most part. But the problem is, the argument of chronological continuity doesn't go well as a reason why the "can't" do something. It holds fine as a reason why they "shouldn't", but they have already broken chronological canon anyway, so saying they "Can't" do it has already been shot down by the dev's.

My three votes are A9, Imperial Assault Gunboat, and R-41.
I can't believe they left out the assault gunboat. It would round out the Imperial choices quite nicely. Instead they had to invent the oppressor and aggressor, which are nice, I suppose, but dilute the license.
There are tons of pirate/civilian type ships that should be out there in the class of the R-41, skipray, PES, T-wing, and cloakshape. I don't know why they had to reinvent all those civilian class starfighters before they implemented the ones starwars gamers were already at home with. I feel like it's babylon 5 out there.
As an addition that you don't already have on your list, I would also like to see the A-9 Vigilance in the game. I'm a fanboy about it for some reason or another. 
And yes, I understand they're not made yet in the timeline, but I spent 2 years arguing against awings and bwings and superTIEs and jedi and a ton of other stuff, and it's clear nobody cares. So if I can't beat em, I'm gonna join em.

1) I want a TIE Defender. Put my first vote down for that. I loved that ship in TIE Fighter Collector's Edition.
2) Star Wing Assault Gunboat.
3) YT-2400 transport. The Outrider was just badass. The devs can have my yacht back in favor of one of these babies.
Couple of notes on some of the other ships mentioned, though...
The V-wing isn't a starship; it's a combat airspeeder. I'd love to see it in-game, but it's not a starship.
The missile boat... God, I loved that thing in TIE Fighter, too. Trouble is, to have it in this game, it would cause a major imbalance. The missle boat would literally be an "I Win" ship. Might be pretty fun to have them in-game as very random NPC spawns, though.
And, you should add the TIE Phantom to the list of choices. A nice starfighter, but not a top 3 choice for me.

Oh, well I don't think any of us are saying they "can't" as in it's not possible. We're just saying they "can't" as in they shouldn't.

I've updated the results again, and I felt the need to add another addendum. This thread is not for the discussion of continuity or timeline issues. I thought it had been established by SOE that the game doesn't follow the Star Wars storyline to the letter - otherwise there wouldn't be a reason to play the Imperial faction, since they would be doomed to lose. If Sony feels that it would be good to add ships the population wants, let them. They need to get everything approved by Lucas anyway.

my three would be the:
skipray blastboat
lamda shuttle
mandal motors starviper (the only ship that would make me drop imperial pilot, the viper would also make a fantastic master ship for the privaters.
, the viper would also make a fantastic master ship for the privaters.

Updated the poll again, though voting seems to be slowing down.
