Considering the following to be correct, what will be the going price for these things?





Swoops and speederbikes cost 250 nonferrous + 1000 ferrous.


Landspeeders cost 450 non(I think) and 1200 ferrous.

I'm hoping the minimum cost will be 20k.. i could live with that. But considering anyone an his mum can build them, I'm betting you'll be hard pressed to sell them to anyone over 5k


Yet another fine idea by the developers. /end_sarcasm

"Ten thousand, we could almost buy our own ship for that!"

"We can pay you two thousand now, plus fifteen when we reach Alderaan"


<snip> Guess where the 2k came from?


"You'll have to sell your speeder"

The most common price will be between 2-3 cpu. Welcome to the world of the architect.

You'll probably be able to get them for about 5000 for the bikes and a little more for the speeder.

That is going to depend on wheter experimentation makes the speedes faster.


If I can make em with crud material, and not have it matter, it will be cheap.


If you need Erco to make a pod-racing speed vehicle, well, it will be a very different story....

if expermintation works to vary the speed, then 20k-35k should be the range.


if a smuggler could slice the engines, then add 10k-15k.


if armor and weapons can be added, then add 10k-15k.

The only resource quality that matters is the Shock Resistance. As such the only thing that can be experimented on is durability and I assure you there is a difference betweena poorly made speeder and a high quality one. The poor one got enough dings in it in an hour of running around that it was sparking like mad, the high quality one has taken damage but is no where near sparking like the first one.

Shock Resistance eh? I have never had to look for that before. Guess I need to keep an eye on that stat from now on too.
