You can have an Imperial ship in any color so long as it's gray.īoth Raider variants are very similar, sharing most of their traits: With all that said, let's proceed to the rest of the review like normal, shall we? I have a hard time imagining the fleets being nearly so successful without the Raiders and I've grown really fond of the poor little buggers.Īlternatively, perhaps this dapper gif will convince you! Not to toot my own horn so much as to establish my own credentials: I won the 2016 Adepticon Armada tournament and in 2017 so far have placed top 25% (5th place both times by my recollection) in two Regionals and won the Friday 2017 Adepticon Armada tournament and every time the fleets in question had 2+ Raiders. You may have even encountered such discussion already and I urge you to proceed with an open mind. What bothers me a bit is people accusing it of being useless or telling others to avoid it altogether. It is one of the trickiest ships (if not the trickiest ship) in the game to get the hang of, so it's clear to me why people get frustrated with it. There's no good way out of this tangent, so enjoy some sweet missiles!įirst things first, let's clear the air on this one: the Raider is a ship a sizable number of Imperial players hate on.

Whatever it is exactly that "star destroyer" means in Star Wars anyways - it seems to get used on wildly different ships when you really think about it and that can't be any kind of reasonable categorization system for a military dictatorship that spans a healthy chunk of a galaxy, right? be a destroyer ship of the "star" classification, I suppose. What? Where's the star destroyer designation? Cor.vette? Is this a real Imperial ship review? It is, in fact! Not everything must destroy stars.
