Even if they can't be really customized, they could be dyed so they match the rest of your ships.

Fighter is an adrenaline filled thing. I think fighters will also be used as pod racers.
But... Podracers don't have weapons! (Unless you're Sebulba)

But, who cares! If they make an agreement of no weapons, I will agree.

Anyway, either fighters or at least give us podracers.

Podracers are cool, but they aren't a substitute for starfighters. If everyone else agrees to disarm their fighters, I'll conquer the entire galaxy in a week.

Only the fighters that podrace. And even then, it will most likely be more like pylon flying or flying through a tunnel.

I dunno... Podracing sounds like a good way to loose a lot of fighters.

It depends on the game, I guess. In Lego Star Wars for the Wii, podracing is hard, and the Battle of Coruscant is the most awesome level in the game.

The Xbox podracing game is a lot better.

No-one here has a life. That's why we're here instead of talking to friends. The Star Wars fanclub only meets once a month, and I have to amuse myself somehow.

If I deleted all of your off-topic posts, I doubt any of you would have over 100 posts left. If you deleted all of my off-topic posts, I might lose 20 posts at the most.

Right then.

I vote that fighters be small and cheap, so there will be hundreds of them into any given battle. They should have the ability to be player-controlled, but the vast majority will be piloted by NPCs and will simply swarm enemy ships. Most of them should target enemy starfighters before capital ships, unless they implement bombers. Those should attack larger ships and emplacements and avoid engaging enemy fighters.

Or you could make a swarm a single entity, and have it controlled by a single computer through which you control them.

The problem with that is that it leads to Mazer Rackham scenarios.

And then I fire the Doctor. Like, literally, I shoot mackeroth out an airlock, and he explodes them.

Fighters? Swarming might not be too bad, actually. But the human controlled ones should have free will.
