Have you flown in one of these lately. They fly like brick (as they should). They will not become space composite because of their maneverablity and their shear size. These ships are much easier to hit, and when you are moving your ship to line up your blaster, it will take considerable damage/
Exactly why I feel that having forward firing guns will give pilots a false sense of ability. If it had forward firing weapons, do you know what we'd hear next? That you can't actually fight in it. A master pilot flying solo in that thing will probably not be able to fight anything above Tier 2. The YT needs the turreting abilities to do any kind of battle.
Flying solo in Kessel? Forget about it. Those Tier 5 NPC's would rip ya a new one.
PvP? Absolutely impossible.
So, what would be the benefit of having forward firing guns on a YT? Perhaps to fend off attackers to buy you time to hyperspace, but the pilot-controlled missiles are sufficient for that.

Do the YT-1300's have storage capacity? (like the Yacht). I've searched the forums but found nothing, so if anyone knows then cool. Or are they just large multi-passenger ships?

Haha thanks Bomb. You're about the only person who had the info. Everyone I asked on my server either guessed or had no clue, being the YT-1300 doesn't seem to be a popular ship.(ironically since b4 launch everyone wanted one) But from what you say it'll make a good Ranger transport.

Uses: 1Lot (like a merchant tent or small naboo house)
Can take: 75 items (like a merchant tent or small naboo house)
Has: 5000000 mass (So put in there whatýa like, you will never reach maximum mass 
)
)1Pilot (Can NOT use droid commands or specials like IFFScramble)
1Operator (OP-Chair can do the droid commands and specials)
2Gunners.
Loot is placed in a lootbox, alongside the credits u make in a credit chip
All exp is split evenly among all who are within the YT-1300
And if one uses the Escape PoD he go´s where he last boarded the YT. If the Pilot/owner of the YT does it, it is like "Eject" and will cause wounds!
Any more info u need?
