Well, there most definitely won't be any ships in X-Wing from the Ole Republic era. Unless they make some sort of off-shoot series. Not only isn't it canon, but every ship in the game, currently, has been in service at the same time as the x-wing (in any of it's forms. The ARC-170 is not an exception, as it was in service with the Empire. Also Alliance Overhaul).

The Ark Angel is an interesting ship for the Empire, but it's... weird. Mostly in it's looks. Sizewise it would be the same as a Firespray, when compared to a TIE Advanced, which was docked to it (maybe it can do that in the game?), but it has so many gun emplacements and turrets, that it would most likely be a 3 attack ship. And then have either a mobile arc or a rear auxilliary arc. But can it fill a role, that the Firespray doesn't already?

My friends are discussing Krennic's Shuttle and the First Order landing craft. But the Empire already have enough shuttles as is. But Krennic hasn't been introduced as a crew card yet, so maybe? And it might be small enough to fit on a small base. The First Order landing craft, I don't really see how it could fit. It doesn't seem to have any weapon systems and it seems like a one-purpose ship. And they don't have to fit everything from the films into the game, right? Right?

There is also the Meson Martinet, the ship Finn almost boards to escape to the Outer Rim. The crew is pretty recognizable from the film, especially the captain, Sidon Ithano.
