In to request my favorite fighter, the TIE Defender:

God, that is the ugliest ship ever.

Here's two I worked up for my Saga campaign--a stock Gallofree Yards GR-35 Light Freighter (a smaller, lighter version of the Rebel medium transport), and the heavily-modified GR-35 Roustabout. The "Roustie" is the ship the PCs begin the game as deck crew on, and some time later will end up being their ship (the opening of the campaign involves the ship getting shot down by pirates and the PCs having to escape). Obviously, the PCs' stats will replace the Roustabout's crew, but here it is with a generic expert crew:

Yeah, you can't argue with the Defender's firepower. But God, it's UGLY.

Something I was working on for my game, and then I discovered this thread so I figure I'll post it. I worked it up just by eyeballing the two cap-ships in the core book (the Corellian corvette and the Imperial star destroyer). So YMMV and all that. I have absolutely no idea how to determine its CL.
