Re: FT Fighters - Indicating Types Question

My opponents don't want to tell me what kind of
fighter is which until they get into combat. As
far as I can tell, I can't make them.

For my UN forces, I have actually different fighter
miniatures (EA thunderbolts vs. EA starfuries). For
the rest it's just impossible to tell until you see
them in action.
