Hex-PC Posted August 9, 2015 Report Posted August 9, 2015 Is there any officially recognized Sniper blaster rifle for the Imperium? I have looked and I can see a few different ones on general google searches but don't know if there is a definite one for ANH and after.. Thanks for your help, Rob Quote
Dreamdasher Posted December 9, 2015 Report Posted December 9, 2015 (edited) The closest thing to an "official" Imperial sniper blaster I've ever heard of is the E-11s, which originates from the original Battlefront game. The ones in the games are based on the MG-34 machine gun and thus look essentially like a DLT-19 with a scope mounted on top. There's also a drawing from one of the tech books that is obviously an artist concept, which appears to be a standard E-11 with a longer barrel and modern precision-style stock on it. As for either one being officially accepted by the 501st, I have no idea. The concept drawing probably isn't canon, so likely isn't permitted. The E-11s may or may not be depending on whether or not game-exclusive material is accepted. Edited December 9, 2015 by Dreamdasher Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted December 9, 2015 Report Posted December 9, 2015 The one from BattleFront is pretty cool. I saw a Biker Scout at Celebration with one once, very cool. Not canon for TK's, but at informal troops will look pretty nifty. Quote

Dreamdasher Posted December 9, 2015 Report Posted December 9, 2015 I like that one! It's cool, though I noticed that the artist probably didn't realize what the folded stock was and left it on there, except now it's a super long folding stock! Quote
