The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
Wherefore Singularity Engine? Blame the [Star Wars] thread.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMOVFvcNfvEGuys, I think we're all pretty cautiously optimistic about the new Star Wars films due out soon.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uh0Vu1hm2G8While we wait to find out that Zod's severed head is attached to the radar dish of the Millennium Falcon, let's talk about what our favorite Star Wars ships are!
Mine is the beautifully designed work of art that is the A-Wing.
This is not a request for you to talk about if your favorite ship could beat up someone else's favorite ship, because it's not about comparing made up numbers! This question is purely about aesthetics.

Also my favorite ship recently has been the tie phantom, for being so good at xwing minis >.>
I've always had a soft spot for a victory class star destroyer

they got a shot of the top?
Rest in Peace
But a slingshot? Really? The empire has already fallen so low as a kid with a slingshot is able to make fools of them?
Strike 1 Disney?
Nice, smooth lines. Classy.
Why I fear the ocean.
Will be interesting to see how close turn of the millennium Darren came to his look in Episode VII.
all of the main TIE designs are fantastic, I think the defender is a bit goofy though and vastly prefer the phantom
the imperial shuttle is badass and elegant
star destroyers are great, the super star destroyer was like the coolest looking thing even though it went down like a chump
it's hard to try and go back and choose favorites because of how early on star wars was a part of my life and how much I loved it as a kid
Keep those shields up, or the space dust will scrach the hell out of the chrome job.
Are these the Micromachine spin-off line ships?

nobody knew how to play it
I had thousands of cards ad I didn't know

Somehow, it manages to look both ungainly and graceful at the same time.
And here's an image of three of them flying away from a giant explosion. You can't tell, but I'm 95% certain that none of the pilots are looking behind them either, just like true badasses.
Such a shame all but a few seconds of b-wing was cut from RotJ due to technical issues. Yet somehow, that's the one thing Lucas didn't change in his redone versions.
Add in a 10 minute long musical number that adds nothing to Jabba's Lair? Sure, let's crank up some cheesy looking CGI fuzzball to sing.
Add more B-wing? Nah, no time to do that, we're too busy extending the ewok victory celebration.
And I call myself a true starwars fan
not my own collection since that's in a box in the attic
but this thread is making me want to dig them out
In the EU, I've read that it stands for Blade-wing, because the main wing looks kind of like a sword or knife.
My personal theory is that someone on the design team misheard "t-wing", and decided that in the same way the X-wing was a faster space superiority fighter compared to the Y-wing being a slower heavier bomber, the A-wing would be the faster superiority fighter to the B-wing being a bomber. They wrote B-wing somewhere important and nobody thought to correct it as filming progressed since it would never actually be named in the movie.
Because is was the second new starfighter design in ROTJ and the first one (the a-fighter) actually looked like a capital A
It was so fucking rad even if the rules were dense as hell.
I was going to post this on my old thread.
but it was locked.

Wait, hang on a minute. Can somebody explain to me the difference between the bottom left ship and the bottom right ship?
(yeah I know, what kind of shitty Star Wars fan wouldn't know the difference...)
They've just fully embraced the silliness of it, and I think that's great.
Some of the lyrics are just amazing.

As far as I'm aware, there isn't one. That's just the iconic tie - tie advanced - tie set up.

It does kind of make you wonder how different the movies would have been if they had solved their problems with dance offs instead of murder.
