PA ISDs don't carry V-19s, that's only their Acclamators, Venators and Secutors. PA ISDs carry 1/1 TIE Fighters, 1/1 TIE Bombers and 2/0 TIE Interceptors.

Point I had a brainfart. That is enough to change the list. I probably got them confused due to running both or perhaps a Hero unit had a different load out. I do not generally use many ISD IIs as the PA or if I do its in carrier fleets where each ships load out can get mixed up. .

Eriadu actually has shielded TIE interceptors, which probably rank higher than the regular ones the Empire gets in Era 1 and 3.

On the other hand, Era 2 empire has a Scimitar and a Shielded interceptor, era 4 has a Howlrunner and an A9 Vigilance, and Era 5 has Preybirds.

Did not know about the shield TIE thing. Still not enough top change my ranking though as the Empire> IA except maybe era 1.

Out of the 8 factions in the game, 6 of them can build the ISD's. Not all ISD II's are created equal however as they vary by what craft they can carry. Generally most facitons have something else you should be building over the ISD's. They are not bas as such but they are inferior to things like the Tector, Allegiances etc. Starting from the bottom placed faction I will rate them

6. Pentastar Alignment
AFAIK these ISDs carry the bog standard TIE's.

5. Eriadu Auhority
In last place we have the EA which has a completely bog standard SSD. They carry TIE, TIE interceptors and TIE Bombers. Apparently the TIE interceptors have shields though.

4. The Empire. What comes out of an ISD for the empire does vary on the era as they tend to have a different load out in era 2-5. Still not that exciting however although in some eras they are better than number 4.

3. Duskan League
THe Duskan leagues ISDs do notcarry any TIEs or bombers just 100% Trifoil fighters. Si do Yevetha Victory class ships. THe other factions get maybe 1-2 replacements for their TIES, the Yevetha get 100%. WHile missing out on a bomber is annoying the Trifoil fighters is very good at chopping other fighters out of the sky including vs the New Republic and Empire of the Hand.

2. Greater Maldrood. The GM ISD's carry a TIE Avenger and ARC 190. This means you can build very good carrier fleets or replace things like strke cruisers and victory class ships with Providence class frigates and Bulk Cruisers so you get to use many ARC 190's and TIE Avengers.

1. Zsinj. Zinjs ISDII's carry TIE Raptors and the TIE Raptor is very very good. ALso comes on Zsinj Nebulon Bs and Quasar FIres so you can chop opposing fighters out of the sky and TIE raptors have missiles as well.
