X4 gunship image - Empire At War Remake: Galactic Civil War mod for Star Wars: Empire at War: Forces of Corruption
This mod catapults Empire at War into 2077. It maintains the game's design philosophy, while adding new units, better graphics, and deeper gameplay.
Though unremarkable on pretty much all fronts, the X4 gunship for the Rebellion is a decent threat to unshielded TIE fighters and with its 3 dual medium laser turrets, it can indeed blast a great many unshielded units out of the skies. While as a gunship is underperforms in the right place at the right time a squadron of X4s, three per squadron, can do a remarkable amount of damage dispite really, being the bottom of the barrel in terms of gunships.
Equipped with flares for a brief moment of torpedo/missile guidance jamming, don't keep these units in combat for extended periods of time. The rebellion has much better units for that, the X4 is purely a support unit to complement existing forces, or blast some TIE fighters that happen to find themselves out of position.
The one good thing about the X4 is that all of its weapons are turreted and while dogfighting, the X4 will always be able to fire atleast two of its weapon systems at whatever its targetting.
