After a bit of a reality-imposed hiatus, I've wandered back to find... this.
Fun.
I've got a meagre fleet of two ships: a Scyk and my Yacht.
The former I've christened the Mourning Star, and the latter the Bonnie Heather, in obvious tribute to the single greatest series of space sims ever made.

My two most active ships are:
Grim's Retort: A heavy Krayt attack ship. This is a raider. High speed (T10 engines and boosters) and high attack (3 RE T8 forward blasters). I'm usually solo whether or not I'm declared so survival is all about situational awareness and being able to get the heck out of Dodge (or Mos Eisley) fast if thing start stacking up against me. Also have other arcane odds and ends which allowed some wicked customization. Sometimes I'll switch around one of the guns to allow for a gunner - usually for training missions but a good gunner (hard to find) can be a real advantage against a fast turning foe as he can swivel faster, and wider, than your fixed nose and wing mounted guns.

The Ikopi Stag: YT-1300 Freighter. This is a system patrol craft for CorSec. High speed and in the process of complete overhaul. Not very maneuverable but speedy to intercept smugglers and pirates (mainly for RP purposes). It also serves as a mobile base for CorSec (and, quietly,Alliance)interdiction and intelligence operations in distant systems so it's equipped with a full briefing room and a very comfortable cantina/mess hall. Half the crew are musicians so we manage to keep ourselves quite entertained on long missions.

Let's see here:
Light TIE Fighter: Shadow I
TIE Fighter: Shadow II
TIE/IN: Dark Eternal
TIE Interceptor: Harbringer
TIE Bomber: Juggernaught
TIE Advanced: Steele's Legacy (named after Mareek Steele [the spelling of that I'm not sure of] who was the star pilot of TIE Fighter, quite possibly the greatest Star Wars game of all time)
TIE Aggressor: Deathbringer
TIE Oppressor: Delta 2 (my old call sign from TIE Fighter)
Decimator: Black Dream
Yacht: KraytDragon Marauder (This is from a game me and my friend played years ago where we were both Bounty Hunters. The original Krayt Dragon Marauder was a pile of trashed furniture that was in storage waiting to be tossed out. It made for a great ship for a pair of kids with nothing better to do)

I don't have particular names for my starfighters...whatever unit I'm flying with bears the designation of the fighter for the moment. Right now I have an X-wing named "Sabre 5", but that can change easily.
OFFICIAL IMPERIAL RECORDS
Entry: YKL-37r Nova Courier Starwind
Available Information:
One of the prototype models of Gallofree's Nova Courier-class light freighter, the Starwind entered Rebel service well before the Battle of Yavin. It was sighted at various times running illegal cargoes at high speeds through Imperial blockades. According to available intelligence, it was in the service of several Rebel special agents. The vessel was shot down over Rori by a squadron of Imperial TIE fighters shortly before the attack on a small Rebel refugee camp there.
The Starwind was presumed lost. However, several months later, the vessel was reportedly seen in use with a ragtag fleet led by the pirate Jessik. Its identity was confirmed by ion spectral analysis from readings taken by an Imperial freighter that was hijacked but later recovered by Imperial forces. The vessel remained in Jessik's fleet until an encounter between an Imperial patrol, Rebel raiders, and Jessik's forces. It disappeared again for some months.
Most recently, it has reappeared as a smuggler vessel. Intelligence reports the vessel has largely been used for hauling illegal weapons and spice for Rebels and outlaws alike. Intel also reports the vessel is now captained by a Rebel-aligned Zabrak, Halyn Lance. The ship has been spotted with several different IFF transponder signals, in violation with Imperial law on proper registration for all vessels. Vessel is considered a medium-priority target.
The ship is characterized by a slightly misshaped hull and chronic computer problems. The vessel, as one of the prototypes, never had some of the early problems worked out of it. It is reportedly crewed largely by droids; the organic crew seems to vary, except for Lance himself. The most recent sightings of the vessel have been in Tatooine space, though rumors of the vessel being seen in Naboo space, particularly near Rori, may or may not be true.
Entry: Kuat Systems Engineering Firespray-31 Steed
Available information:
Little is known about the Steed. It was, for some time, used as a policing vehicle by the Corporate Sector Authority. However, the vessel has been spotted in Imperial space, including during an assault on an Imperial Star Destroyer. It is safe to assume the Steed is currently in service by the Rebel Alliance.
