Thread: A-Wing vs. Tie Advanced
Since we're on the subject of timeline fixes, let's remove Jedi and decrease Rebel numbers by 75%.

good point, hehe

I'd prefer it if they eliminated mass altogether.
Or am I the only one who scratches his head when he sees a Tier 5 Z-95?
Oh, BTW, the A-Wings have a higher corner velocity than the Tie Advanced. You can make faster turns at higher speeds.
A friend of mine is Master Pilot, runs a full set of RE'd parts in a Z-95 no problems at all. (of course, he's been working on the set of loot parts since the game came out...but that's besides the point)

Sure, go ahead and take away our only good fighter before master.
All Imperial ships on the lower end of the pilot tree pale in comparison to the low level rebel ships. Think of it this way: X-wing and Tie interceptor
X-wing holds almost twice as much mass as the interceptor and can carry 3 times the weapons.
'Nuff said.
Well, that makes sense, since the Interceptor iscomparable tothe Awing, not Xwing.
Droid interface is very important we need weapon overload, engine overload and reactor overload, so I useone that has alow mass like around490+ that has a commandspeed or 15.5. And if TIE Advanced should be nurfed, replace it with TIE Avenger.

To be honest, I think the Advanced should be nerfed, and Im an Imperial.
Why? Well thats easy: the TIE Advanced that we use is not Vader's actual ship, but a series of prototypes which came from the original Vader-TIE design. Then, after lots of research and improvement, they made the Interceptor. The Interceptor should be bumped to 65k mass and 2p/0m, and the Advanced should be reduced to the current TIE-Int stats. In fact, I think a slight mass-increase is in order for both the Advanced/Interceptor(depending on whether or not we're listened to) and the A-Wing, they should be bumped to 70k mass. With decent shields, a pair of weapons, a reactor, an engine and a capacitor, ie, the bare essentials, I dont even have enough mass left for a level 1 countermeasure or droid interface.

Interceptors arenot even compatible to A-wings in JtL. And remember this is a game, not the movie. In the movie, Rebel ships are greatly outnumbered so it does really matter, but in this game, it's not the case, so everything should be wellbalanced to be fair and fun.

Agree. As I recall from the STARWARS:X-wing series quete
" We were vastly outnumbered by the Imperials" and this was EVEN after the second death star
" The Emporer was very thorough in his extermination of the Jedi Knights. Almost none live, and the price of Jedi artifacts in the Galaxy are very rare and are extremely hard to procure"
and in the books, the ONLY MAJOR COLLECTION OF JEDI ARTIFACTS WAS IN THE IMPERIAL MUESEUM BEHIND SEALED INACCESIBLE WALLS! and IT WASNT OPENED UNTIL CORASCANT WAS TAKEN OVER BY THE REBELS.
(Hence, a couple years after endor)
The timeline we have right now is so F*cked up. The PURGE OF THE JEDI does not mean that I see a guild of jedi going and pwning everything in sight....
but, alas, profits kill the storyline somehow

do not agree.Jtl would not be fun any moreif those ships are removed. This is a game, so screwed the timeline and continuity.
