The Incom T-65 X-wing is the fighter that killed the Death Star. Almost perfect balance of speed, maneuverability and defensive shields makes this the fighter of choice for rogue squadron, except when the mission profile disallows it. In addition to four blaster cannons, the X-Wing can carry a number of proton torpedoes. Powered by four fusial thrust engines, it requires an on-board astromech droid for peak performance.

The A-wing is so bad its propensity for being the fastest coffin money can buy survived a canon revamp through sheer will.

The A-wing, or "How to look cool and die fast" is what happens when A Kuat Engineer snuck into the back of Sienar systems to see the assembly of the first TIE Interceptor and thinking "A cheap fast and basic starfighter with the survivability of wet paper, great! Let's make it faster, let's make it not cheap, let's make it even faster, let's make it without the numbers that TIEs are built around" and his Rebel friend, hearing all this, decides "Yeah we aint got Empire pilot numbers but I sure do like going fucking FAST"

Fast but not easy, you're basically flying two engines strapped to your dick when its just seen two twileks kissing. In a navy that is just full of "I'm the best pilot ever but fuck discipline" jocks there's only one way to compensate for the missing inches of limp-dicked decent piloting and "Well I can fly an A-wing and not die" is there for people who have a hopelessly high rate of optimism and a will already written.

The most famous victory of an A-wing pilot is driving himself into the bridge of a Star Destroyer.This is actually remarkable as it did come at the end of the war between the Empire and the Rebel alliance, since it is frankly fucking AMAZING a-wing pilots survived this long. In the new canon they are given a fresh introduction, and promptly do nothing but fucking explode.

A-wings are the thinking man's suicide note. In a desperate struggle to be the slickest spacer this side of Duros young hotshots sign up for a one-way ticket into either ploughing into the fucking ground, being the first into the frey and into fire in the wet tissue paper tiger, and just generally being the coolest guy in the dogfight because they're already exposed to the vacuum of space.

The X-Wing was stolen by defectors from the Incom Corporation when they were still in prototype. The first mission of Empire at War was about this if I remember correctly.

That's basically what the old EU had them be

>Fixer, calculate our jump to hyperspace
>Tonin, calculate how long until that debris collides with the capital ship
>Thirteen, give me a random number

The advantage of making them separate from the X-Wing is that they can still do other work outside it plus they aren't tied to individual ship so you can mix and match ships with pilot/astromech teams without problems. You can operate an X-Wing without your astromech, go to hyperspace, etc. but you're basically down your co-pilot

Only a quarter of those TIEs are a joke.
>>
>>739220496
Those are solar panels as wings on the TIEs, right? Why'd they deem it better to extend the sortie time of a short range fighter craft which never strays far from a base or carrier? Wouldn't have been cheaper and easier, and design TIE craft with a battery pack enough for a few hours of flight and ditch the panels, and constantly be rotating them out for longer engagements? Are they nonfunctional over the dark side of a planet, or under atmospheric cover?
>>
>>739220543
jesus
>>
>>739220683
Alternatively, the person designing TIEs thought solar panels looked cool and wanted to make a ship that looked like it was made with them.
>>
>>739215852
To be fair, Wedge Antilles plus 10 pilots about to be washed out of the service is still an elite squadron
>>
>>739220683
Yeah it's solar. Their engines run off it it's not about extending range
>>
>>739220683
A renewable secondary power source for onboard systems using free real estate on the ship's surface is a great idea. You save even more main power than those systems consume via the solar panels. Space is completely riddled with UV radiation, why not use it?
>>
>>739220236
It's still around, and it's been massively updated to include all nine of the films, Ashoka, and The Mandalorian. Each ride goes like this:

-An opening segment
-A segment from one of the films and shows
-A segment where a major character contacts the Tour vehicles, chosen randomly
-A final segment from another film or show, but never from the same film as the first segment

Personally I really like it, even if I dislike the Sequel Trilogy.

These are all the scenes when it first re-opened.

I propose not using huge vertical wings, as decreasing the targetable surface area of a military fighter craft seems a better priority than a secondary power source. The Rebels have all their ships, aside from the B-Wing's attack form, mostly oriented flat.

Realistically the wing of a TIE getting hit doesn't impact it at all, except perhaps in atmosphere, so it shouldn't matter. Although the wing could take the hit in stead of the pilot's wagie pod thus being an advantage.

TIEs turn on a dime. You ever see the gmod animation with Ellis rolling across the ground? TIEs can do that at speed in the middle of a dogfight. They're really hard to hit, you almost have to aim to miss. Also you won't do much damage if you just graze a wing. No critical systems, and the TIE wobbles like a MF anyway.

Something that I wish more star wars games did more but I know its a bitch to balance is to not make the rebel/empire or Republic/CIS factions just mirrors to each other.

Cause in both conflicts both sides are very much asymmetric. ties shouldnt be on the same level as x-wings and shouldnt fight the same way. a b1 battle droid should not be on the same level as a clone or fight the same way.

The problem is if it's multiplayer the teams have to have the same amount of players. So with both teams having the same player count you can't mass spam TIEs that die like flies but there's 50 of them to one x wing, that one TIE has to be able to fight against the one xwing. You can't have 15 troopers to one rebel, the wave of men would always win.

could try experimenting with asymetric team comps. CIS gets more players, but have generally shittier troops outside of elites like droidikas. Same with TIEs and TIE advances.

Dont have to be extreme, like 8 or 10 vs 12. But again, I think people are probably a bit conservative when it comes to asymetric team comps in multiplayer games. COuld be fun though where you really do have to change up tactics depending on side.

There were more bad bits than soul in the end. Which is what happens when you start pumping out books. NJO is like 30 books alone, in fact it felt like it had more books than the rest of the EU combined up to that point. And if you don't like Jedi survivors and Rebellion subsects, oh boy is the EU full of those.

>A billion fucking Jedi and Sith survivors
>Rebellion within the New Republic during the NJO

>>739226040
NJO was bloated as fuck and had some good moments in the beginning but ultimately went to shit. Killing Chewbacca was dumb and done for shock value "Oh we're serious this time." The Vong being immune to the Force was retarded and then more retarded was when it was found out they were actually from the most Forceful Force world ever but then "stripped of it" I didn't buy that shit with Callista and I sure as fuck don't buy it with a whole fucking race of aliens. Killing Anakin was also retarded. Viqui Sheesh and Borsk Feyla could have been the same character. Omini being the big bad at the end was stupid. I really liked the character of Nom Anor but even as a cunning devious motherfucker, his ass got bailed out of way too many situations by pure luck at the end which is what happens when the arc drags on for what feels like 50 books.

>the "rebels" are using more advanced and expensive fighters than the big bad galactic superpower they are fighting
This conflict is superficially presented as underdogs vs overdogs, but the rebels are more peer to their enemies than any historical stand-ins they might be compared to. It's like the Vietkong using the Su-27 while the USAF is using the F-5.
>>
>>739226026
>>739226289
Forgot to mention. The NJO's big fucking huge reveal is that "Actually people aren't just pure evil or pure good, there are shades of gray to everything, including the Force. Not all anger is dark". They set this shit up through the whole fucking arc and Jacen goes through this whole thing where he realizes "Woah, maybe not everything is black and white" because Vergere taught him this after her years with the Vong.

But then as >>739226040 says Legacy of the Force undoes all this because it turns out Vergere was a Sith all along because OF COURSE she was and Jacen actually just becomes another Darth Vader but worse. But rather than a knock against Legacy of the Force (which is rightfully called out as shit) I count this as a knock against NJO because WE ALREADY FUCKING DID THIS WITH ANAKIN AND THEN LUKE. Anakin being redeemed at the end proves people aren't just good or evil. Luke giving into his anger in ROTJ and then denying it (and then giving into it again in Dark Empire) proves this. There was no reason to have the big reveal of the Force by Jacen Solo in NJO because we already knew this. Oh also Kyp Durron, Zekk, a dozen other "Gray Jedi" or so that I forgot, the EU just suffers from repeating the same shit over and over again.

Sorry I love these books, they were my childhood and early adulthood, but man objectively, a lot of them are not great.

That's only in terms of starfighters though. The rebels quite clearly lacked significantly in terms of big ships, heavy weaponry, and manpower. Their manpower issue is why it could make sense to spend more on better fighters since good pilots are harder to come by.

Look anon, I just don't care if certain themes or plots turn out to be lame. The EU as a WHOLE, its ideas, it's books, what it was doing and who was doing it, all of it was really great, even if it didn't turn out that way. The NJO was a matter of too many cooks, but I can respect what it tried to do. The authors in the EU tried to respect what Star Wars was and it's fans, Disney Wars did not. It's that simple for me.

On a side note, last year I bought a complete set of Star Wars (1998) comics, it's the series that eventually became Star Wars Republic around issue 50 or so. It's kino!

In the EU/Legends, they literally just took over Imperial star destroyers and painted them differently. You had people I'm universe kvetch about it ("using symbols of oppression") but see it as necessary evil.

Then new Disney Canon came along and had them steal and salvage star destroyers for parts to make the Starhawk class of ships.

Genndy Wars is ass. He made one jedi capable of taking on an entire army when George has explicitly stated that jedi are helpless when surrounded. It's even more ridiculous when Grievous is able to do shit like this when he isn't capable of using the force and he has a robot body, all robots are slow and clunky in star wars. The EU in general is full of retarded shit like this, such as Darth Vader taking on 100 rebel troops surrounding him on all sides in a desert in that one comic. It's capeshit territory and star wars shouldn't be going in that direction.

>Almost perfect balance of speed, maneuverability and defensive shields makes this the fighter of choice for rogue squadron, except when the mission profile disallows it. In addition to four blaster cannons, the X-Wing can carry a number of proton torpedoes. Powered by four fusial thrust engines, it requires an on-board astromech droid for peak performance.
I know that this is written for a video game that needed balance, but that's bullshit.
The T-65 X-Wing is a superiority multi-role righter, while it's rival LN-TIE fighter is just a pure fighter and a shitty one at that. The X-Wing literally took the best the Z-95 and the ARC-170 had to offer into a compact single pilot fighter. While the LN-TIE fighter just wanted to be a cheaper version of the V-Wing, which had so many compromises it is literally a cheap imitation of that.

Its like comparing an F-14 to a J-7.
>>
>>739220496
The fact that someone at Sienar fleet systems actually built an armored tracked vehicle on the LN-TIE hull and was accepted into service as a tank for some imperial systems is truly insane.

You can sort of defend any other TIE variant if you really try hard enough, it is a space fighter plane after all. If it can do that it is okay. But can you really defend turning it into a tank?
I am just saying someone was giving Sienar massive kickbacks for designing the worst sci-fi tank ever.

Canonically the Empire was going to produce X-Wings as their standard fighter but they were axed due to costs. The basic tie fighters don't even have shield generators. Clones used prototype X-Wings late in the war.

The X-Wing was designed to be the next-generation supremacy fighter, in the vein of the old Clone Fighters from the war. But the Empire then drastically shifted it's priorities under the Tarkin Doctrine. Not only did they scrap the X-Wing project, but they force nationalized the company that designed it and were going to confiscate the prototypes - essentially cheating the engineering firm completely.

Instead, the engineers defected and took the only plans and prototypes with them, rather than let the Empire steal their work.

Always funny when this one still catches people. It's a /fit/ meme back from before this site turned into complete garbage (or rather, right about the time it did). Basically, a study showed that exposure to Onions (and Onion juice) MIGHT MAYBE have an effect on increasing testosterone. At the same time, Onions was under-fire in the /fit/ community because it supposedly contained xeno-estrogens. This is why 'onions' is now synonymous with the weak and effeminate. Basedboys vs the Onion Pill got picked up and boosted by /pol/, and this was post 2016 /pol/ so that meant in turn it got boosted across the internet thanks to Election Tourists.

As a joke, Onions got autofiltered to Onions some time in uhhh 2017, 2018? fuck if I know I was basically checked out by that point.
