what would your flagship be and why?
« on: March 07, 2016, 09:06:24 PM »
If you could have any ship in the star wars universe no matter the time period as your flagship what would it be and why?
Just a little fun idea I came up with to see what kind of ships people would use :)

Or a Nebula-Class Star Destroyer... aaaghh can't decide

Executor class SSD Night Hammer. Can take on 20 ISDs at once, has massively increased hangar space for over 1,000 TIE Fighters and Bombers. Has stealth black armor hiding it from most sensors. Requires only 100,000 crew to run instead of 250,000 normal compliment. Is one of a kind and magnificent.

Well, if we're going big and unstoppable, I'll take a completed Death Star II, thank you. ;)

I'd have a short list.  If I were going for the "can take on a fleet by itself" I'd go Assertor.

If I were going with a more realistically sized flagship, after doing so much testing of Ascendency, I'd probably take the Secutor.  While it's not pretty, I like the fact that it's not OUTRAGEOUSLY large, it's got good shields and weapons (yes, not quite in comparison to it's size advantage, but still good), and carries lots of fighters and bombers.

Surround that with lots of Venators and Procursators to protect it well, and it'd make a fine command ship.  Also, would look suspiciously like my Ascendency fleets as the PA.

If I were going with a flagship that didn't stand out at all, then I'd be going with a Venator, or MAYBE an ISD-II.  But I just find the Venator is such a nicer looking ship, that I'd prefer it.  Plus I like bombers (assault gunboats or blastboats).


Whatever my flagship was, it wouldn't have Tie/ln's on it.  At a minimum, I-7 howlrunners for superiority, preferably Tie/Ad Avengers.

Well Pali, the DS-2 Orbital Space Station is not a ship, but a space station. :)

I honestly love the Venator class destroyer and if it could be upgraded with more modern shields, weapons, and fighters I would use it as my flagship in a heartbeat. Without the modifications I would probably choose a Majestic class cruiser. Good firepower, good shields, interesting shape, and awesome name.

A personally modified Venator with up-to-date basically everything.  I mean if the things were still around in the Legacy Era for whatever reason, that proves their resilience to me.  As a second probably a Conqueror-esque SD

I admit, Imperials just have some of the best looking ships with the firepower to match.

Super Star Destroyers, ISD II, Praetors, ...Yeah, they kinda have it all.

Though I wouldn't mind a Providence class or a Mon Cal Cruiser.

MC-90's would be on my top 10 list, probably top 5 list.

i agree with Lord Xizer. Night Hammer, but maybe even more powerful, if possible
do you know what really makes me mad? that the NR didn't make as many different SSDs as the empire. they would have won much faster had they done so. it's just not fair. but, if their were more NR SSDs, they would be absolute SUPER-CARRIERS.

but, i'm a member of the PA at heart, and my wish here is to join the ranks of grand admirals... sorry, the elite imperial alignment

My top 5 picks in no particular order:

Modernized Venator-Class Star Destroyer (enhanced systems, modernized reactor, exchange 32 point defense laser cannons for 18 turbolasers and 9 ion cannons) - Compliment of 192 TIE Interceptors, 192 TIE Avengers, and 36 Missile Boats/TIE Defenders

Nebula-Class Star Destroyer - Compliment of 36 E-Wings and 24 K-Wings

Imperial II-Class Star Destroyer - Compliment of 36 TIE Avengers, 24 TIE Defenders, 12 Skipray Blastboats, 12 Assault Gunboats/Missile Boats

Bellator-Class Star Dreadnought - Compliment of TIE Interceptors, TIE Avengers, TIE Defenders, and Assault Gunboats/Missile Boats

Modernized Lucrehulk-Class Battleship (enhanced systems, modernized reactor, mount tons of extra weapons) - Compliment of E-Wings, TIE Defenders, Assault Gunboats/Missile Boats, maybe a Lancer or 2
