Its a mining ship it sounds like its just designed for mining lasers and tractor beams not 3 or 4 hardpoints to make it a huge mp fighter.
I can't wait to get one. I like the idea of mining my own resources in space. Plus I can then make my own parts as a shipwright. I like the look of this too just hope it stands a chance against pirate attacks etc.
1 question though I either missed or it hasnt been addressed yet, who can fly it? If one person is able to get the ship and take people up can any of them jump in and maneuver if needs be?
And yes I am a Sullustan with a small one so need a big ship to compensate.





I recall from TC that its a master pilot cert I'm affraid

I cna see it being a while before there are on SW terms as one of the resource slots is actually asteroid resources, you can add a container to current fighters to gather smaller amounts, not sure of crafting requirements there tho.

Three of us went up in a decimator and gave it a go, but had no cargo hold so once tractored in they just bounced off hull lol!

Couldn't seem to get a hold of a storage for a MP ship at that time.

Might be a good time to put to use those vet reward resources eh? (IF asteroid chunks will be included when it goes live that is)

By the looks of it a Y-wing LP will be a very usefull mining ship, same goes for the Rhyyrrk and TIE Bomber.
