Which is your favorite Starfighter?

[ADarkJedi44]

You skipped from Enemy Lines to Star by Star? Feh

600 pages isn't that bad.....

[Krytos]

Yeah, I read Enemy Lines first because I was pretty sure that was where I read of the illusive series 4 E-Wing, figured it would have been with Blackmoon squadron - but I was wrong

 

So now I've jumped backwards to read Star by Star.

 

Plus I'm a really bad reader - I either skim over the book or I read it thoroughly and take for ever. That and generally the only time I read is when I watch TV

Can get confusing when you're watching 24

Hey Mad78, bad news I'm affraid. Star Wars.com just put the Ebon Hawk in its database and listed manufacturer as unknown

 

Though, they kinda gave a little hint to it's manufacturer:

The Ebon Hawk was designed to reminiscent of the fan-favorite Millennium Falcon. Elements like the rounded shape, the top-and-bottom turrets and the raised tubes on the top of the craft recall the smuggler's ship, while incorporating new features like the double-engines and triad of viewports.

The name "Ebon Hawk" was the first the designers considered and stuck for the duration of the project.

 

So, I'd say it safe to call it Corellian if they were truelly basing it off the Millennium Falcon - especially with it's shape and being a modular freighter

Thanks for the info.

Pity maybe we will know one day.

Ok, finely after a long period of time the hunt is over The elusive Series 4 E-Wing has been found, hiding within the many pages of Star by Star . . . hmmm perhaps a little too dramatic?

 

Anyway, here it is:

Accompanied by a cruiser and two frigates each, both ships were bleeding squadrons of XJ3 X-wings and Series 4 E-wings into space.

 

Not much – but at least it confirms it’s existence – if there’s anymore mentions in the novel, I’ll post them

 

P.S. After looking over theforce.nets unofficial encyclopedia and there listing of 2 Series 4 E-Wings, I’m pretty sure from the definition one of them should be the Series 3 E-Wing.

BTW anybody having played X-Wing Alliance may be interessted to know that I am working on my first TC. It will oppose the Azzameen to the Viraxo.

 

PS Could anybody tell me how to open two images at the same time in Irfan view so that I can compare sizes and make cards for the TC please post on the forum or PM me. Thanks

yes but don't put the Slave as a capital ship, I think it would look stupid to have 1 Slave fighting against 1 group of X-Wings, or against 1 ISD, but keep the transports ships, and I don't think you should keep those ships you wanted to, you should put that big red square looking one, it could look god, at least better than that silver shiny one. Try also to find some old models, because it is more likely that a family commerce enterprise would buy an old, but powerful ships than a bran new Imp ship that just cam out of the factory, I don't know if you agree with me but her is my contribution, but if you need any help, you know where to find me. O and by the way that video one that link you gave us (http://atomfilms.shockwave.com/af/content/hardware_wars) is stupid.

[Mad78]

It's because it is stupid that is funny

Thanks for the ideas. I will keep that in mind. BTW I found which ships would be interdictor for each team.

[NIIIC]

Ah yes, I suppose that if I ask you which one is it, you won't tell me because it is a secret.

[Mad78]

Don't worry, Anyway you are going to be doing the beta testing so calm down. but first I have to start working on cards.

[NIIIC]

You tolled me you hade finished them?

[Mad78]

I haven't finished the character cards. And I have to work alone which isn't very easy.

[NIIIC]

Well if you need help to choose between to different cards or textures or any thing, you know where to find me! It would be a pleasure for me helping you out.

[Mad78]

If you really want to help me. Why don't you learn how to make 3d models (you can download instructions in the download area) and create a few for the game.
