My new question pertaining to the Scorpius is, what will its loaner ship be?

Hurricane

Apparently Super Hornet and Hurricane.

The Hurricane is ugly as hell, a triangle with wheels haha.

That should have been RSI's whole marketing campaign for this. "Do you want a triangle with wheels...or a freakin X-Wing?"

Well the Q&A put it about where I thought it would.

For $220 find a gunner or get two Hornets for $220 and Find a wingman.
You get better agility, better speed, more firepower, and more survivability, but it doesn't look like an X-Wing.

The Hornet also doesn't look like an Aurora in beast mode while parked, but the Scorpius does. hehe Just doing a bit of TESTifying.

The Stinger paint for the Scorpius is only being sold to Concierge members during this event. Thus its special paint will be more unique / limited.

True... I was thinking of the "standard" non-concept skin.... still personaly I like the HS skin more since is not just a recolor of the ship but include also a specific art...

I dunno, doing a canyon run in two hornets is not as satisfying as doing it in a scorpius will be

I've done a canyon run in a Hornet, it felt a little sluggish. This thing is supposed to be more sluggish.

But it still isn't an X-wing. If I demand people call me Red 5 in a hornet I'll just look silly.

I did specify the Hornets don't look like X-Wings, though the cockpit interior is, IIRC, X-Wing like. The original concept even had the pop out "targeting computer."

It would be better than your team calling you Red Leader. Do you remember how that position worked out for him?

This is true.

In my nerdy X-wing rebel alliance cosplay in SC I'll be Luke skywalker of course, so Red 5

Obviously, because Red Leader was KIA during the assault on the Death Star.

Use the farce Luke!

Lonestar is the better choice, then you can use the Schwartz.
