    TIE defenders and intercepters can just go to hell.

    I forgot, is the defender the one with the treads?

    3 wings, more artillery than a B-wing, about as fast as an interceptor, and it had shields

    I used to think A-wings sucked the worst of all. Then I was playing Star Wars: Rogue Squadron 3 multiplayer with a friend, and I was in RS 2's Battle of Endor. Since I'd already unlocked everything there wasn't a second X-Wing, so I had to use the A-Wing. That thing was all kinds of awesome in that battle, and I don't know why. Well, it sucked during the second part when you have to take out the Star Destroyers, but the first part was just like 5 minutes of me being awesome.

    Potatoe, that is a rather large TIE bomber without the bomb cache, what are you doing.

    It looks like the prototype tie advanced flown by Vader.

    And on that amazingly nerdy bombshell, i say we talk about TIE FIGHTER in this thread. Because its an awesome game and you should all play it.

    The prototype TIE advanced had sharper wing angles, it was more of a [-o-] than a (-o-)

    Oh and i forgot about the <>s

    INTERCEPTORS HO <-o->

    IF YOU FLY A TIE INTERCEPTOR YOU DO NOT FEAR DEATH BY DEFINITION

    Oh come on it was way worse flying a standard TIE FIGHTER. You were slower and had half the laser cannons.

    So for obvious reasons i prefered the interceptor.

    I think we all know that in starfighter-level combat, the A-Wing beats everything else hands down, if only because of pure speed.

    However, let's not forget the awesome strength of the later generation B-Wings when it comes to assaulting a capital ship.

    What destroyed the first Death Star? Was it an A-Wing? Was it a shitty Y-Wing? No, it was a goddamned X-Wing!

    A TIE fighter meant you were cannon fodder.

    A TIE interceptor meant that you knew you were going to die and wanted to do it in the best way possible.

    I'm pretty sure you steered interceptors using an Electric Guitar, so that when you inevitably crash or get hit by an errant piece of shrapnel, your exploding corpse flies through the galaxies forever welded to your axe, forever rocking out in space as you journey into eternity.

    A wings were not in production yet.

    An A-wing killed Vader's Super Star Destroyer (admittedly it too was destroyed in the kamikaze attack initiated by an asian person - don't think I didn't notice that Lucas) which didn't have an easily-exploitable weakness like the Death Star.

    You don't count a single starfighter breaking a window to be an easily exploitable weakness?

    man, are you downplaying tycho celchu's mad gambit of leading several tie fighters in a merry chase through the death star to let Lando and Wedge in their slower, but more heavily armed, craft be safe to blow the second death star?

    also, motherfucking executor, bitch.

    Unless the weakness mentioned is 'Many Bothans,' I hardly would describe it as easily exploitable.

    Oh ho ho.

    We're talking about easily exploitable weaknesses.

    Comparing DS I and II to the Executor.

    Since II had a moon shield I would count that higher than bridge shields, if they were up.

    But still. A window! What cockfag builds a capital starship the size of Texas and doesn't have an auxillary bridge?

    I'll tell you what kind: the kind that has shitty acting in three prequels!

    Treating "lol" as a noun is on par with treating with "win" or "fail" as nouns

    Which is to say, it is fucking terrible in pretty much every way

    The Pittsburgh Steelers had a regular season record of 12 wins and 4 losses.

    the best part is that it doesn't matter what kind of paint job you put on an A-wing, you're not hanging around long enough for anyone to see.
