I love my X-wing...

(Taken from a PM I sent to Keer.. thought you all might like to share in my joy..)

When we were flying together, my X-wing was only sporting 2 guns.

Now that I have completed tier 3... I have the equiptment necessary to sport 3 guns.

The X-wing is nothing short of pure sexual energy right now. With 3 guns, I will do 3200-4800 if I hit with all of them.

While I was once sporting a Y-wing carring a mass of 30k... The seX-wing is nearly maxed at 98k worth of pure whoopass.

Plus, the Goddess smiled upon me as I looted a 95 base speed engine.

I was doing well against tier 4's.. with my recent upgrades, I truly have a ship worthy of the name "Goddess' Fury".

The XWing has 95k Mass? Why is my TIE stuck at 60k?

The A-wing is 60k also.

Remember the X-wing is built to be the tank of the rebellion. The A-Wing and TIE fighters were designed with manuverability in mind. The mass reduction is for that purpose would be my guess.

Just for scale:

TIE Fighter = MIG 15, 17, or 21

X-Wing = F-14

X-Wing minus Astromech Droid, 2 lasers, cockpit life support (TIE pilots wear spacesuits), S-Foil mecha, and all the luggage Luke pulled out on Dagobah = TIE Fighter
