Visual Guide Update - TAC Y-Wing Fighter
Posted by Chuck | November 28, 2007 at 10:31 PM ET |
Y-wing
starfighters are powerful vessels in the Rebel Alliance fleet, with ample firepower
that includes laser cannons and proton torpedos. The Rebel forces make do with whatever
vehicles they can obtain, and the sturdy Y-wing is a good fighter for them because
it can withstand heavy attack and still remain space-worthy. During the Battle of
Yavin, Y-wing fighters fend off Imperial fighters to clear a path for the Rebels
to reach the Death Star's vulnerable exhaust port. Rebel pilot Lieutenant Lepira
flies Gold Four, the point Y-wing for Gold Squadron at the Battle of Yavin, but is
shot down during that pivotal battle....

Visual Guide Update - TAC TIE Fighter
Posted by Chuck | November 19, 2007 at 06:45 PM ET |
The
TIE Fighter is the standard vessel of the Imperial
fleet and is equipped with twin ion engines, microparticle accelerators, and hexagonal
solar panels that provide impressive speed and maneuverability. However, they have
no shielding or secondary systems to accommodate the large power generators, leaving
their pilots with little in the way of auxiliary support during combat. TIE Fighters
