==Raider-Class Corvette== [[File:Imperial Raider 3.jpg|thumb|200px]] An entirely new creation for X-Wing by Fantasy Flight Games, and since it was created in cooperation with Lucasfilm after the Disney wiped the EU it's completely canon! The Raider class corvette was designed by Lira Wessex, the same woman who created the Star Destroyers among other Imperial wonders you love (which makes her canon again too) 6 years before the Battle of Yavin with the destruction of the first Death Star seeing it put straight into production. Created as the mid point between a Star Destroyer and Decimator and as an Imperial ship equal in size to the CR90 (which didn't exist in the canon prior), the Raider has the speed for Rebel-like hit and run attacks or patrols and is designed primarily as a heavy anti-fighter ship. Its powerful lasers are more accurate than those found on a Star Destroyer and comes with plenty of anti-fighter tricks like small Ion cannons, along with great durability and a centralized command bridge. When a Star Destroyer deploys a squadron of TIEs the Raider is what is deployed to accompany and support them. Because it was hyperdrive-capable, the Raider was usually deployed along other hyperdrive Imperial ships including the TIE Advanced 1x prototypes that didn't wind up in Vader's garage. The Empire's first Huge ship. It's costed similarly to the CR-90 with pretty minor statistical differences. The primary arc is full frontal and the upgrade bar has missile and torp slots. The ship ability makes your primary and ordnance attacks stronger against targets in your bullseye arc, which is effective against wings and larger ships. The Raider has a choice of three Titles: *'''Assailer:''' Trades 2 Shield for 2 Hull, adds gunner slot. Gives a green die when defending at Range 1. Arvel Crynyd likes this. *'''Corvus:''' Allows you to dock 2 small ships and grants Calculate action. ''Corvus'' also lets you get a second Calculate token from performing the action, including linked Calculates like with Damage Control Team. *'''Impetuous:''' Trades 2 Shield for 2 Energy, adds Crew slot. When you destroy an enemy with an attack, you can Focus or Target Lock. *'''Instigator:''' Adds Team slot. Lets you reroll 2 dice when attacking a ship with an orange or red token. <gallery> Image:Imperial Raider Mini.png Image:Imperial Raider 2.png Image:Imperial Raider 1.png Image:Imperial Raider Fire Arcs.jpg </gallery>
