Tie Advanced?

Hi Lavo,

 

First I would like to thank you and your team for such an amazing mod. I recently purchased Sins Rebellion and am trying to get used to it. I did add you on steam. My icon is from Futurama 'Philip Fry,' so you know it's me. I want to know if SOAGE has Tie Advanced fighters. If it doesn't, I would like to know if you intend to add them and if not, whole heartedly request that you do. By the way, I am surprised and amazed at how many factions you have, including the Yuuzhan Vong. I would really like to have access to fighters (not just bombers) with shielding.

TIE Advanced were a limited prototype ship, they were not mass produced. Given the limited number of fighters slots, we really couldn't fit them in.

Fighting is terrible, but not as terrible as losing the will to fight.

The TIE Avenger would have been the production model - it was much more expensive and rarely deployed. Zaarin ended up destroying most of the production factories for it. The TIE Defender is similar, it was well equipped to fight Rebel starfighters but also very expensive.

The TIE Avenger and Defender were both really good fighters, but they did not get adopted as "regular" units like the TIE Fighter and Interceptor were. That very reason is enough of an argument against their inclusion, in addition to possible balance issues. In all truth the Empire does not desperately need shielded fighters, nor would it be entirely canon to allow all ships to build them. Perhaps most notably, the Avenger would have to replace an existing fighter, as ships can only have up to four squadron types, which is not something I am willing to do.

 

As for Steam, don't have access to it atm, and I'm glad you're enjoying SoGE!
