Thread: idea for a new ship type
forgot to mention, all these ships would be master certed.
also just so its worth something, you get the factional ships by buying a one time use schematic from an npc and having a shipwright build it.

NO.
SW's got screwed enough with ROTW without it going any farther.

i think we should get a new ship type in the game
the light pob ship
what it should be
should have 1million mass or so
manuverability like the kse firespray(as someone who flys a jsf this is SLOW)
speed like a bwing
1 forward gun and 1 turret(with an exception to that, ill explain later)
2 torp launchers
can use pob only parts
can hold 50 items and have 4 people
1 pilot station
1 gunner station
the other 2 people can be damage control
big hit box(at least as large as a KSE)
one for each faction and one all faction
all faction one should be the KSE firespray(just have us deed and then undeed them, btw the kse is the exception to the 1gun 1turret rule, its hard to get so it gets a bonus)
imp should be the lambda shuttle
freelance should be the skipray blastboat
rebel should be Kyle Katarns ship from Dark Forces(I think its called a Corelian heavy fighter but dont quote me on that)
the restricted mass means no ships with solid pob only parts, you actualy have to make choices.the rest answeres the fact that pob ships are useless in pve and pvp.
any comments or changes?
Hmm, I see a YT-2400 build from Shadows of the Empire. Kyle Katarns Ship was Named the Moldy Crow and it was some kind of 2 man Fighter/Courier with more Leg room.I believe the KSE would be more inline with this level of ship but I wouldnt see them changing it.
They even messed up the kse it is suposed to be a system patrol craft ment to capture small cargo like ships board and take the prisoners back to the prison on the asteroid,It is supposed to have several levels a bottom turret and one forward gun and two missiles and be able to detain up to four prisoners

Actually, this isn't too bad for a SW because we'd still be in the loop. Personally, I'd perfer for a SW quest to get schematics to buying them though.

my response: Did you not read the part where you take the schematic TO A SHIPWRIGHT to get it built into a blueprint(come on dude, read the post before you run off at the mouth)

If you were forced to use POB-only parts, you wouldn't be able to fly the ship at 1 million mass. POB parts are 250k apiece.
my response: Look genius, just because you can do something dosent mean you have to.
anyone else want to spout off before actualy reading what iposted
second of all the Moldy Crow which was in the first Dark Forces, should be the freelance ship of this type. Rebs can use the Ravens claw which was Kyle Katarn's ship in Dark Forces: Jedi Knight. and, since the KSE firespray was an imperial prototype, it should either be used by imperials or it could be the one used by everyone. if this is the case, then the imperials can use the lambda shuttle or just make up another tie. hell they did that with all the freelance ships
The Firespray was designed under imperial contract, but the Empire didn't pick it up. Rathet than lose money KSE sold the firespray to the private sector, being a patrol craft it was perfect for the kind of missions a prisoner recovery ship would undertake.
