Basilisk -Class Starfighter |
By Alfred Wong |
|
The Basilisk is the Crimson Fold crime syndicate's newest and deadliest starfighter. The design incorporates the lessons learned from the years of combat experience against Sierran starfighters. Fast and tough, the Basilisk concentrates its weapons; four heavy rapid-fire pulse cannons, four lighter cannons and two warhead launchers in a tight grouping, providing devastating firepower. In fact, The Basilisk is the most heavily armed fighter of its size and class. While the Basilisk is still no match for the Sierran Rapier in terms of sheer agility, it has been tailored carefully to the Crimson Fold's fast run-and-gun tactics. It’s been rumored that The Crimson Fold's Crime lord personally supervised the Basilisk's design. The model is a 1/48 scale scratchbuild with approx. 50% kit bashed components, and measures 12” long X 9.25” wide.
