I like them X-Wings, what about you? What would YOU pilot?

These are one-man vehicles, so don't say ships like the Millenium Falcon.

Incom/FriTech T-65JA3 X-Wing Space Superiority Starfighter.

3 x heavy proton torpedo tubes

4 x heavy laser cannons with multiple selective fire options.

Fast, manuverable, and a new twist on a classic wonder.

Well I put the A-Wing but what I should rather have added was that it would be the A-Wing MkII with the rotating cannons on the side to give me the added advantage of off-axis fiing that no other fighter sized vessel in that group has. (Unless you are talking about the 2-seater Y-Wing)

A-Wing. I've always loved that ship, from the first time I saw it in RotJ. Plus, I have such a huge crush on the most famous A-Wing pilot.

I have to agree with Kelly. The A-Wing is a great machine and that one pilot was friggen cool! He's gotta be my favorite character. "DYAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!" BOOOM! :D

*cough* wrong pilot. I'm talking about a red head who happens to be the son of the head of the NRI... aka Pash Cracken. THE greatest A-Wing pilot ever.

I'm leaning heavily in favor of the XJ model X-Wing, though I'd have to see the stats on a same-generation E-Wing to make a really informed decision. If they got the E-Wing's laser cannon issues fixed, I might take it over the X-Wing for the larger torpedo magazine and higher speed.

Tie Fighter would be very exciting to pilot, to say the least. Its just a flying piece of junk without any shields... I'd go with A-Wing. Speed is good... :twisted:

Second place is a toss up. Either a TIE Interceptor or a B-Wing.

X-Wing all the way. It beats the TIE for the reason it has S-Foils, and I want to fuck around with the wings. LoL. The B-Wing doesn't have an astromech, so the X-Wing beats it out in those regards.

World Devastator, since it's basically a big driod one person should be able to control it. With it I can build many single seat fighters/ISD's/addition superweapons.
