New Craft in X-Wing Alliance

Preface:

Well, XWA is out now. But as I haven't got my copy yet here in Germany, the status of my information is still almost the same as it was some weeks ago. So see what was known BEFORE the release...

I decided to research all available XWA screenshots for the new ships to be seen in XWA.

Although I'm not finnished yet, her are the results up to now:

1. (supposedly) flyable ships:

LucasArts XWA Spotlight states that
"Over 20 different craft including: Corellian Transport, Family Transport, Millennium Falcon, X-wing, Y-wing, A-wing, B-wing, T-wing, Z-95, Gunboat, Missile Boat, TIE Fighter, TIE Advanced, TIE Bomber, TIE Defender, TIE Interceptor, Authority IRD, Cloakshape Fighter, Firespray, Planetary Fighter, Pinook Fighter, Preybird Fighter, Pursuer, R-41 Starchaser, Razor Fighter, StarViper (not includeD in final release), Supa Fighter, and the Toscan Fighter".

Most of them will only be flyable in "skirmish" mode. And the screenshots reveil at least one more...
