Just as expensive as the vapor......but with all the features it comes with is really impressive. It'll be interesting when it finally goes out to people and see what happens. It might have problems but it also might not

Let's face it, Empire just does not know how to style guns any more.

I chose "alright" because its hideous but it could perform well. Too early to really tell

Outside of the Sniper, I'm struggling to think of any Empire markers that I like the look of, including the new ones released today. The features, though - that's where I think Empire really shines, and the Vanquish is chock full of great new features. I like the lubing assistant and single-size screws perhaps the best, but there's lots of other good stuff there, too.

Went "not good" because its even uglier than my Axe :P

But the tech inside excites me nonetheless. The whole "everything you need is on the screen" really intrigues me.

This board seems to at least be innovation which is always a good start.

EDIT: The one allen screw makes me want it a lot!

This is probably the worst looking high-end that I have seen in the past few years, plus I don't know if it is worth a $1500 pricetag.

Nope.

I stuck the "any more" in there because of this:

Wow, somehow managed to completely forget about the Empire Timmy, and someone at my field even uses one regularly. However, I counter with the Creedpire that they spec'd out with Vanguard. That's another cosmetic atrocity. I definitely like the look of the Empire Intimidator, but I wonder if that just had better bones to work with from Bob Long's initial design.

The gun isn't even for sale yet and we are already using polls to criticize it?
