I used to use my IG Interceptor, but I am moving away from that I only use it when a JSF starts bullying my Adv I have almost got my Adv set up satisfactory, I like the go faster winglets (not that they do anything). So I will be using my Adv a lot, and might take a Heavy TIE up for a spin some time soon.

Hehhe that was acutally pretty fun, espeically since it didnt have any shields.

BTW, I saw growken a couple of days ago. He was imperial for a while but now he is regrinding rebel pilot, I believe. I guess I can look forward to getting shot down more. I'll give him the best fight that I can in my heavy tie though.

Growlkens really good. In my mind he ranks as one of brias top pilots in pvp.

my ship of choice is a z95 (high mass) it turns great, has great mass to play with and the spread can be compnesated for, all around if you don't like teh relic ships, the z95 is a good choice.....although i may go freelance, corsec it would fit my characters background of a mercinary, not to mention ive always liked the scky fighter and i heard the vasaki is pretty cool

I haven't been flying as much lately.. only bothered to set up one ship (after deeding everything pre-CU.) I used to fly a krayt and was really impressed with the handling for such a big ship. But I don't have the RE'd loadout for it yet to really take advantage. In the mean time I dance in my Dune. It dosen't have the same punch, but it's agility makes up for it. I tried the heavy Scyk once or twice, not enough to make a judgement.. jury's still out. Wouldn't mind trying the Vaksai. Guess it's time to grind in Kashyyyk.

Yeah, I know that he is really good. All of us imps were getting spoiled without Leaph around. Oh well.

Right off the bat I felt the x-wing or heavy x just wouldn't cut it (at least with the equipment I have availible to me ATM)


Tried the Bel, and it just didn't feel right


Locked myself into my a-wing, and worked at a setup that I felt comfortable with, now if I feel like pvp, I don't give any other ship a glance, I grab my a-wing and roll out. Through some advice from Leaph, and a few others on equipment, I have built a mean little a-wing that has given me quite a few very fun duels.


Thradd, my hat is off to you for the most fun pvp experience I have ever had, your ship is a marvel and you are an awesome pilot


For the rebels out there that never even flew an a-wing for pvp, just grabbed a bel or JSF, give the a-wing a chance, it may suprise you

How are those bozo's holding up over there anyway?

When i left, imperial intrest in space was like.... a near zero. Typically is acutally. I tried to get more imperial intrest in space by trying to latch myself into the network of established imp guilds by joining BLC (or so i thought) but i just coudlnt get anyone topside. I think Nord Squadron and Black sheep squadron were like the only series imperial attempts at JTL on bria. Sometimes i wish i never left nord, but i think stay would only be putting off the inevetiable, there wasnt really much to do at the time.

hehe well, we are doing ok over here. When I came back from my LOA I found that there were a few imperials in space at random times, and even fewer rebels.Things have started picking up lately though. I have been getting more imperials into deep space and the rebels with Dhara (Kreindhild's squadron)have gotten active in space. So, there is more activity than before, finally. I am working with xian' (I'm sure you remember him) on a squadron for Elite Obsidian Order. That is going alright. I'm really looking forward to the events that we are going to start having with Dhara. Fortunately Dharais into roleplaying as I am and most of the pilots that I fly with regularly. So, our first event is going to be with all classic fighters. This idea has intrigued other pilots and they are currently working on setting up their heavy ties. I think we might be able to get some consistent pvp going without the prequel relics. So, basically, we are all getting excited about the prospect of fighting with the classics and that is starting to generate more interest in space. At least with the pilots I fly with and with Dhara.
