well then i'm riding one of hans old g/fs

nice

i'm on Bria and i also confirm she does break down, regularly (not as regular as before, well done??)

still those Bria terminals give me grief,(in a british sense of it)was she temperamental? or just the ship was?

Of course i'm sure most of you Scylla was one of the sea monsters that Odysseus encountered in Homers epic poem The Odyssey. Its kind of strange that the companion monster to Scylla, Charybdis (sp?) isn't one of the server names.

Bria
This Starmite-class freighter was the first ship Han Solo and Chewbacca ever used on their own. It was leased from Lando Calrissian, and was named after Bria Tharen. It was heavily modified, and was constantly breaking down. The ship saw duty during the Battle of Nar Shaddaa, and Solo used it to deliver the Hutts' bribe to Admiral Greelanx shortly after the battle. When Han was discovered by Tedris Bjalin and blamed for the death of Greelanx, Han and Chewie were forced to make a quick escape. They were caught by the Imperial ships and fired upon, but managed to escape in a life pod before the Bria was destroyed in a hail of turbolaser fire

If that isn't irony, I don't know what is...

Oh man I wish the devs wouldn't have taken that statement too literally.

I could've sworn Bria was an acronym for Better Reboot It Again....

This was the name of Darth Bane's personal starship. He fled the destruction of the planet Ruusan aboard the ship, having survived the explosion of Lord Kaan's thought bomb. The Valcyn was a blade-shaped craft, but it was severely damaged by the spirit of Lord Qordis when Darth Bane arrived at Dxun. After reaching the planet's surface, the Valcyn exploded, stranded Darth Bane on the moon

Good to know our server is named after an exploding ship.

BTW, thanks for hi-lighting it in yellow

I only left it yellow because orginally that was the one garvin added, and he added it in yellow when he posted it in the Valcyn server forum. I should go change it really... /snicker
