The Ebon Hawk from KOTOR and KOTOR 2. Possibly the Mandelorean ship from KOTOR 2. The SOE Development team could put so much more content into game. I mean look at all the ships, planets (Nar Shadda, Taris, Korriban, etc) and weapons.

Yep, the YT-2000 and YT-2400 are actually both good choices in my eyes.


I would also like to see an upgradeable, newer yacht. Like the Jade Shadow. That thing is gorgeous.

You're about 4000 years out of the timeline...



YT-2400 has my vote, YT-2000 a distant second. I'd like to see them availible to all pilot professions aswell, mainly because I quit Privateer over lack of EU-existing craft, but if the YT-2400 were added to only Privateer I'd switch back in an instant.

I'd like to see the YT-2000 as a ship for every faction (or atleast Rebels and nuetrals) as well. The YT-1300 is one of my favorite passanger/cargo ships, and I'd love to have one.

Lambda Shuttle....


And yes. finding the Ship type the "Ebon Hawk" was.... i just love the design... Internal and External.


But more YT-Ships would be sweet too.


Maybe "Covert Use" of another Factions Ship.. Han got a Lambda to Infiltrate Endor...

Timeline? Continuity? LMAO! Please! They're bringing in the Jedi Starfighter... so Timeline is right out the window.


Anyways, it would never happen but the "Lucky Despot" (currently smashed into the ground in Mos Eisley) would be one heck of a guild ship.


YT series, pretty much any of those would be cool.

I'm wondering what ships people would like to see the most as non proffession based ships for JTL.


I personally am in love with the YT-2000, aka the otana from X-wing alliance, heres why.


  • It was created after the YT-1300 and before the YT-2400, which means its not exactly on the weakest rung of the technology later. And I like it for the fact that it is bigger than the YT-2400, which makes it better for storage.



  • Its got its bridge smack-dab between the forward mandibles, which gets rid of the almost lopsided look to the other YT series ships, it also makes it more effective as a weapons platform, you got both turrets in line with you so it makes the pilots accuracy better(when firing from the pilots chair)



  • And of course it has that front and back seating in the bridge, unlike the boring side by side seating you have the pilot riding in front and slightly lower than the copilot, this gives you a better commanding view and kind of harkens to the old LAAT- Gunships from the clone wars.

I would like to see the current Rebel and Imperial MP ships given a more combat-centric focus, with a combat-centric Privateer MP ship (either Black Sun or Hutt) added at Master instead of the YT 1300. Then, I would like to see factioned transport ships - the Lambda shuttle for Imperials and similar ships for Privateers and Rebels - added as non-combat (lightly armed for defensive purposes only) ships at novice. The YT series and others would then be added as civilian transport ships, available to all players at novice. These civilian and transport ships, though, should be one-time upgradable at each tier - e.g. at Tier one you can choose one area for a permanent upgrade, then at tier 2 you can choose another area for a permanent upgrade or you can continue to upgrade the initial area, etc.

If they impliment the 3 + 1 civilian ship amounts, then this would end with master level players having one heavy combat MP ship that needs a full crew to be effective, two fighters of their choice and one civilian/transport ship of their choice that has been modified to suit their playstyle.

For Rebels: Rebel Gunship


For Imperials: Imperial Gunship


For Privateers: Misc. Medium Sized Multiplayer ship


For Everyone: Lambda Shuttle


This shouldn’t be too hard. SOE already has the art for 3 of 4 of these models. Just make a generic 6 - 8 gun vehicle and vary skins for whoever is flying it. Then you might actually have a useful multiplayer ship.



For Rebels: Nebulon-B Frigate


For Imperials: Interdictor Cruiser


For Privateers: Misc. Large Sized Multiplayer ship


For Everyone: Corellian Corvette


Isn’t this what is missing from the game? The big ships! Let up to 19 players dock with these ships and take positions at one of 18 guns or the copilot seat.



Of course, any of these suggestions rely on SOE either 1) adding large ship components, or 2) giving the larger ships multiple components spots (i.e. 3 shield slots for medium, 10 shields for Large). You can’t have 18 guns running off of one reactor, or one capacitor.

I'd like to see a few more original designed ships. Preferrably, some that look more military in nature for the rebels and neutrals. I persoanlly like the decimator look and something similar for the rebels would be nice to encourage PvP fleet battles. Beyond that, some larger ships would be nice as well.

how about an IG -2000 or Slave 2 designs for bh. These could be used to catch jedi starfighters and bring them to ground where a bh duel could be carried out for bounties. Just a suggestions.. lol.



or kyle Katarns ships form Jedi knight games those were both great looking ships.

I think the fact that so many people want the YT-series craft speaks volumes and the Devs should listen to that, but as they said in the recent chat, they "have no plans". To think all that all these people, including myself, want the YT-2400 and YT-2000 and the Devs "have no plans" for itjust bugs me...



As far as I know, the IG-2000is a unique ship, one of a kind, not another one anywhere, but as has been mentioned continuity was tossed out long ago... and I may be wrong about it being unique, I'd have to look.


Slave 2 on the other hand would be a good choice in my opinion, it's a Pursuer-classPatrol Craft which is supposed to be pretty common from what I understand. I don't see the point in making any ship BH only though, or Smuggler only or Squad Leader only or whatever else may be mentioned...


Not sure about Kyle Katarn's ships though...
