I totally want a Droid Fighter, but only if it has stats comparable to the squint, maybe even less mass.

Problem with droid fighters is there's no cockpit. Cool ship though.

Would be sweet if they made playable droids. =D

Cygnus XG-1 Gunboat, hopefully.


It would be bitter sweet though.

I think it'd be cool to see some more POB ships. I'd love to have a skipray blastboat!


Something that suprised me was how several new ships were created for the game when SW lore has a whole bunch to draw on that never even seemed to get looked at. Especially with regards to the TIEs.


Honestly I fail to see how player-run capitol ships would work well.... I mean most groups have a tough time getting our small 8-person POB ships manned. A Corvette or Victory-Class SD would be really tough to crew, I'd expect. However, I like the prospect of having them.







Actually, you can "man" current POBs with only three people. Four, if you have a buddy with some reading material along for a mechanic.

That would be a cool ship to add.. but doubt it since SOE seems to be living in the past.... you'd think it was their glory days or something as much attention they give to the clone wars in this game now.

I'm betting there's a 90% chance the Mk 1 JSF is going to come with it.



On the off-chance they go with OT ships though, we might see the Assault Gunboat, YT-2400, YT-2000, or Lambda.

Yep. I'm figuring all the ships I don't want to see will make it into the game.


Another JSF. Sith Infiltrator. N1 starfighter. Probably the Ebon Hawk, too. And the Sith Fighter from KOTOR, too. Why not? It probably makes sense to LucasArts.

Eh, why not, already have a few thousand year old droid in the expansion, maybe the droid had the ships in storage? :sigh:


I have a bad feelingthere won't be any nice ships like the listed gunboat, YTs, or Lambda... the "is no room for the Imperial vs Rebel fight" passage on the new planet chills my heart in that regard.

i rhink they should rectify an initial JTL mistake in putting in the TIE Oppressor, and put in the TIE defender. its an really cool ship in the books and they dont even have to make up any ships this time

Everything I've read about the TIE Defender says to me that it would be the most unbalanced thing in space. Why would we want something like that in the game?

everything read about the b-wing says it should be just as unbalanced, but they slowed it way the hell down and poof, a balanced ship. and they already have no problem messing with the basic specs of the ships the put in, so im pretty sure they dont have put in 6 wepas is the dont want to
