| Cica 0BBY yes, for the Red Shirts, for Elites well they can swing the Agility and Weapons upgrades as well. Come the New Republic Era well it's a bit more of a challenge with the Weapons and Agility packages now standard. they still suck compared to a Y-Wing, but it's of some concern if your only in a Stock Light Freighter or a Z-95. |

I agree. The one thing I would like to see is some details on the various optional ordnance types mentioned in the TIE/gt capsule.

No, that's a proton torpedo with a holocam on it so you can watch you're enemy's "Oh, SH!T" look right as they're vaped.  |

Very comprehensive. What about cluster bombs and free-fall thermal detonators?

We (and when I say "We" I mean mostly ME) are digging through out old notes and 1e 2e & E&R books looking for more Canon stuff and our old home brew extras.
Valkyrie Wing also flys TIE + Fighters (TIE Fighters re-fitted with the /ln's guns), and our "Interceptor" Squadron that flys off the Valkyrie Command Frigate is made up of TIE/ln's but this thread is about Bombers & Attack Craft not Superiority Fighters. |

...Lol, good one Jedi Skyler!
...I realize I came across this late, but figured I'd chip in all the same. Thinking over the stats shown originally, I thought it could be simply solved by the following mods:
1) Replace the lasers with Blaster Cannons (less demanding of power)
2) Limit Missile load to 4 on a de-mountable external rack (underside)
...while eccentric, there is method to this madness:
--By using Blaster Cannons, despite the lower damage (1D Starfighter-scale) Techs can set them to Stun so live opponents (such as a pilot that just bailed out of his fighter, or guerrillas on the run from ground forces) can be captured alive. This would lend it a limited versatility.
--With an exterior small rack, this allows Techs to replace & service in short order, despite the obvious drawback of it being set off easily, even by a glancing shot (or near miss?!). I could also see a +1 pip extra Man once the ammo has been used up.
...Thoughts?
