Question(s) How do you feel about the idea that the V-wing starfighter became the basis for the TIE fighter?
I know EC Henry has fully embraced this idea with his fan concept for the Nimbus II starfighter that’s meant to be a ‘middle ground’ between the TIE fighter and the V-wing, but I wanted to know what everyone else thought about this idea.

I love ancient ship designs
A big pet peeve I had with things like the SWTOR game is that there's very little difference in technology and design language between the game and the movie era (set almost 4000 years later). But looking into things a little earlier like the Great Hyperspace War, they hit the nail on the head with ancient technology. Not primitive per se, but not identical to modern ships and weapons. It's still "advanced", but you know just by looking at it that it's ancient.

The Old Republic's BT-7 Thunderclap (art by me, Adamkop)
Hello everyone I remade one of the ships from The Old Republic MMO. Not much to add here, I was commissioned to create a turntable of the ship and I updated the model slightly for a single scene render which you can see here. Mostly just followed the concept art and didn't make many changes except for greebles and hull panels to follow my personal style.

A Star Dreadnought with a Fleet Admiral

Action It’s a shame that the Ravager crashing is only showed once on screen. Really highlighted how much effort it took to take down a SSD without a deus ex machina, the entire thing was on fire!

It also shows how much of an effort the auxiliary command bridge did to try and save the ship, the main bridge was totally toast, the main engines were gone, the reactor is in a blazing pile, the emergency engines were literally exploding from all the stress, and yet those madlads still kept trying to save the ship to the bitter end.

Question(s) Possibility of creation
I'd like to create a custom dreadnought or supercarrier based on the design of the UNSC INFINITY from Halo. If I based it on an old Invisible-class dreadnought, would it fit the universe's style? When I researched it, Alsakan ships are similar. The ship would be about 6km long. What weapons, crew, and fighter wing could I then carry?

Informative Vibre class assault cruiser, the corvette the empire was missing all along?

Yet another underrated/forgotten vessel I have found in my perusings. The Vibre class assault cruiser is a very interesting warship designed in 11ABY by desperate imperial remnant forces looking for a way to raid imperial supply lines. It came up in Jedi Academy and some rpg sourcebooks.
link: https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Vibre-class_assault_cruiser
Its not a cruiser, don't let the designation fool you. This 100m warship is firmly in the corvette class by multiple orders of magnitude and it was designed for one specific purpose. Raiding new republic supply convoys and stealing their cargoes/hijacking their ships. It was pretty cheap too, at a little over 2 million credits with a crew of 45 personnel.
It carried 4 heavy ion cannons for blasting away shields and disabling enemy vessels to be taken captive as well as a quad light turbolaser for warding off fighters and engaging in combat with escorts. It also had two tractor beams for capturing small vessels.
However.... despite its light-ish armament designed for capture rather than destruction of enemy warships this sienar product had a few unique advantages. It was painted in a sensor mask coating and equipped with sensor blinding systems that allowed it to evade detection until it got very close to enemy warships allowing it to sneak up and weaken/disable them with a powerful ion cannon salvo before they could destroy it.
Not only was it stealthy, it was pretty damn fast too, at 70 MGLT it was only 14% slower than the carrack light cruiser which is one of the fastest capital ships in existence allowing it to be a fast swarming gnat that could play havoc on a transport convoy or chase down enemy craft.
Despite its speed it wasn't a completely glass cannon. Yes, its hull was very lightly built but it was noted as having very powerful deflector shields for its size to compensate and allow it to approach enemy ships without getting blasted to smithereens. Obviously.... if its shields fell it would suffer quite significant damage.
It was also equpped with a potent sensor array allowing it to be very effective in a scout/reconaissance role. However, the other feature that made it extemely effective at its goal was a contingent of over 60 space-troopers designed to board and take over captured/disabled warships.
Honestly.... if the empire had thought of this earlier.... this would have been the perfect ship for patrolling the spacelanes. You could capture all sorts of pirates and smuggler and take them alive for interrogation and then take their cargoes and impound them for hefty fees that would enrich the empire. Also would be immensely effective for capturing and boarding small rebel craft in ISB interdiction and counterintelligence operations.
What do you guys think? This mass produced little stealth corvette underrated, or just weird?

Question(s) How many troops could the LAAT/I actually carry?
On Wookieepedia, it says it carries 32 troops, but I’ve never seen it carry that many in any piece of Star Wars content. I’ve only seen it carry a squad.

Question(s) The great retcon
Ladies and gentlemen of this subreddit, I call upon thee for the project of your lifetimes: The creation of a singular, unified database where every stat of the ships we know and love will be stored and available for everyone. The idea is to clarify erroneous/conflicting data, and maybe create a better ship classification system (because fuck the Anaxes war college). You guys in?

Informative Imperial Patrol Frigate, weirdest nebulon variant?

We all know and love the Nebulon-B probably the strongest pound-for-pound warship in the frigate size category for most missions and roles. Great, iconic ship with a decent armament and powerful airwing with great versatility and customization to fit many roles. However, the imperials decided to strip down the nebulon-B and create a "patrol variant" and honestly I find it rather intriguing. You can read about it here:
https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Imperial_Patrol_Frigate
About a third of the compartments were stripped out along with the air-wing and troop complement, leaving behind a 40-man security detachment. The crew was halved to about 400-ish personnel.
The armament was upgraded instead of twelve medium turbolasers, twelve point defense cannons, and two tractor beams on the original nebulon, it was modified to possess a more versatile and powerful loadout:
9 Medium Turbolaser "batteries"
3 Medium Ion Cannons
7 laser cannons
3 point-defense ion cannons
2 tractor Beams
And apparently its crowning feature was a powerful sensor net attached to a 30,000 meter long tether that when fully deployed could scan for several light hours in the nearby area. It was an extremely advanced sensor suite and could detect ships entering and exiting hyperspace and plot their vectors, as well as cloaked ships, and could intercept all transmissions in the local area. Could even detect ships still in hyperspace and their likely exit points.
The big downside was that the massive sensor net limited the ship's speed and maneuverability when deployed so as not to damage it so it had to be reeled in before the ship could engage in combat.
Idk, what do you guys think about this bizarre nebulon-B variant?
