STRENGTHS
A death for every scenario: The Amalgam, strictly using the technology that would have been available at the time of the Royal TIE's creation, has ingeniously modified the cannons to deal out a variety of damage types. Standard mode fires normal laser cannons, other modes allow it to fire Ionic bolts, and it's fire rate can be changed from Standard to Burst to Linked for all settings. Lasers are good for all purpose engagements, Ion does terrific damage to Shields and equipment. They can be fired at either Standard Firing Rate, 007 shot burst, or Linked, which slows the firing rate
Ace Custom: Every single one of its flight controls has been customized intuitively to allow The Amalgam the smoothest, most responsive flight possible, able to react faster and more decisively than most fighter pilots in ships of similarly high quality. It's Hyperdrive has been modified to a whopping 0.1 drive and it's reactor has been modified for heavy duty power supply to all systems, with special focus on primary weapons and their various modes. It's Deflector Shield has been modified to regenerate extremely quickly
Deception: Possesses Highly modified Sensor Decoys capable of fooling even the most modern ship scanners, and the fighter itself has a masking system that makes it very difficult to detect even at close ranges. It also Posseses a comms array designed to send and receive heavily encrypted transmissions that are difficult to decode for outside forces. It possesses a special device capable of scrambling the IFF of even the most modern fighter, as well as a Transponder Code altering device capable of fooling even the most modern military grade computers. It's sensor masking system has been modified to allow it to operate near even the most sensitive ship scanners and sensors without being detected for very long periods.
Agility: This thing has the ability to Maneuver like a fly
Speed: It is capable of competing with even the most modern Starfighter
Chase Me!: A rear facing Solar Ionization Cannon frustrates attempts to chase it
WEAKNESSES
Overheat: Firing the Lasers in linked mode, increases distance but will overheat if fired more than 14 seconds, as well as slows the rate it is fired at
Back cannon power drain: When firing it's rear facing cannon, it cannot fire it's frontal weapons and it slows down in speed and reduces in Maneuverability while rear cannon fires.
Burst weaknesses: Firing the Weapons in Burst cuts the weapon range in half
Shield Vulnerable: As long as the Deflector Shield hasn't been completely depleted it regenerates quickly. Once completely depleted however, it takes up to 007 minutes for it to recharge fully
Sensor Mask Recharge: The Sensor Masking system can only be active for 007 minutes
DESCRIPTION
The Antique Royal Guard TIE is one of The Amalgam's most prized possesions, a genuine Royal Guard TIE from the days of Darth Sidious, personally modified by The Amalgam after her re-emergence in this era. As intact, mint condition fighters from that era are extremely rare, The Amalgam almost felt heretical in modifying it at all, but prided herself in using only the technology from that era to stay true to the spirit of the craft and get the abilities she wanted. The Amalgam is a major Starfighter Enthusiast, and while this is far from her only fighter, it is definitely among her most preferred, as it is as lethally adaptable as she is.
