Beautiful. I play Armada with my kids and they want to see how all the ships look in XWA, especially since the sizes of ships in Armada are not a consistent ratio. Adding some of these will make them very happy. Thanks!

Is there a possibility that you might consider remaking the TIE Interdictor as well?

You kow I thought Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker was ok.......what killed the sequel series for me was Star Wars: The Last Jedi. But (2) things in The Rise of Skywalker that I like (1) The invisible shielding of the Alliance Crusier. And (2) The MG-100 Star Fortress... when I saw it on screen at the theater I thought.. 'Hell we we never see this in Xwing Alliance....." glad I was wrong...

I got hooked on Star Fortress when I started thinking about what it would be like in XWA: the attack and escort missions to the bomber group are a lot of fun. The Star Fortress is a deadly weapon against a spaceship: it only takes one of the bombers to reach the launch point and any major spaceship is doomed. This type of mission is easy to program with the mission editor.
One of the fun things about working on this ship was thinking "how the hell does it work?". The Resistance cannot afford to have a facility dedicated to launching and refueling bombers of this form. These ships must be able to land easily and also be refueled from a makeshift airfield. I have not found any answers in the official documentation.
So here I thought about how to land the Star Fortress anywhere:
This opening system works in XWA, thanks to the "landing gear" function. It's a nice presence in the hangar. Bombs are loaded by hanging them under the wings. I think it's a solution that works very well.

I honestly never noticed before that the 'wings' coming off the Cockpit are very similar to the B-Wing's. It is manufactured by the same company In-Universe, so that kinda makes sense.
I think a B-Wing concept even had a similar ball turrets?

So I'm having an issue installing the RZ-2. It makes me screen go all white when in a mission/skirmish. Even if I install it manually with MXvTED. I tried reinstalling the files the installer backed up automatically, but it still happening, I had to reinstall XWA and XWAUP.
The TIE Striker installed fine.
