Designed and built by the Galactic Republic as their premier space superiority fighter, the X-Wing actually pre-dates the development of the venerable F-EZig, due in large part to the enthusiasm the Galactic Republic had for the design, coupled with the feeling that they weren't really recreating Star Wars without it. Liscensing negotiations with Lucas Films pushed back the X-Wing's deployment until a single year before the first F-EZig rolled off the assembly lines. While Great Justice declined using the X-Wing as it's primary fighter (in part due to the cost per unit), at least one squadron was seen in each Galactic Republic formation during the Boskonian War.

His Computer's Off- Pilots have noticed that, with a working targeting computer, turning it off drasticaly improved accuracy of weapons fire.

Looks good to me...

As I recall, there's a list of various squadrons somewhere in the Warsie pages on the FenWiki.

Yeah, I never saw a stat sheet listed anywhere, figured I might as well make one.

Well, we all know what X-Wings look like, after all.

Unfortunately no one really feels responsible for the Trekkies and the Galactic Republic.

I suspect Mal has plans for the Trekkies. But let's spin this off to another thread...

3D models (require Poser or Daz Studio): http://www.vanishingpoint.biz/freestuff ... cationID=1

X-Wing, Y-Wing, B-Wing, various Astromech droids, landspeeder, snowspeeder, TIE fighter, TIE Interceptor, Vader's TIE fighter, AT-AT, AT-ST, more lightsabers than you can Force-shake a stick at, and much, much more!

Since the models and Daz Studio are all free, there's no excuse not to illustrate the Galactic Republic pages...
