Z-95-AF4

HEADHUNTER

Designed as part of a joint venture between In-

com Corporation and Subpro Corporation during

the early days of the Clone Wars, the tiny Z-95 was

considered one of the most capable starfighters of

its day. Small, lightly armored, and shielded, the

Headhunter is a one-man, short-range fighter pow-

ered by an Incom 44-a5 multi-reactor. The aerody-

namic fuselage combined with an incredible thrust-

to-weight ratio makes the Z-95 quite fast and agile.

Initially classified as an interceptor and armed with

wing-mounted triple blaster cannons, the Headhunter

quickly proved itself a competent space superiority

fighter. It has gone through numerous redesigns, and

today, most sport twin laser cannons and concussion

missile launchers.

Despite their age, the Z-95 remains a popular

starfighter. Considered outdated compared to mod-

ern fighters such as Koensayr's Y-wing and Incom's

brand new X-wing (a fighter that shares more than a

passing resemblance to the Headhunter), sales of the

little fighter are still brisk in the Outer Rim territories.

STARSHIPS AND VEHICLES

'EDGE OF THE EMPIRE

STARFIGHTERS AND FREIGHTERS

llhile the default starship for a group of play-

Wer characters is a light freighter of some

type, the GM should not be afraid to allow his

players to obtain starfighters as well. Dogfights

in snubfighters are an iconic aspect of Star

Wars, after all.

However, if a group chooses to invest in fight-

ers, they should keep in mind that many have

limited or no hyperspace capability. So if the

group wants to travel, they'll have to take this

into account. Luckily, if most of the group is

using a freighter while one or two players have

starfighters, most light freighters have exterior

clamps to haul one or two snubfighters through

hyperspace. If the entire group has snubfight-

ers, though, they'll need to make arrangements

for long distance travel, or ensure they invest

only in fighters with hyperspace capability.
