Hey if you mounted a gun on the very bottom of the Y8 you could call it Momma Firespray

Looks more like a B-wing on steroids...
Like I said in the Shipwright's forum, it looks like someone cut the stern off a frigate and stuck a Star Trek-class shuttlecraft on the top of it.

I agree it looks like the b@stard child of a B-wing and a Nebulon-B Frigate. I notice it does not have S-foils, I guess that is one way to avoid the whole B-wing s-foil issue.

I think it's an ugly ship, but it makes sense. It's probably a design sibling to the Incom Y-4 Raptor only functioning as an asteroid miner/ore hauler rather than cargo ship/troop transport.

Cool! Space mining is something I want to try, but it's going to be even harder to decide which ships to have in the datapad.
It would be nice if we could get an extra slot so we could have a mining ship, an interceptor, a heavy fighter or bomber, and a multiplayer ship.

/pray Please oh mighty god's of datapad usage, please increase our ship storage capabilities within our datapads....
I'm really hoping this happens. If we were given 3 more slots that would be fine. Having a total ship limit of 6 ships would be about perfect. Heck, even increasing it to 4 would help.
I am constantly deeding and redeeding ships, running back and forth to my RE Storage house, reloading the ship, launch.... next day rinse and repeat.
Right now I have my oppressor, firespray, and deci in my datapad. The other ships I use regularly are the TIE Intercepter, Advanced and would like to have the Yacht flying too (mainly for more storage). Thats easily 6 ships. Now throw on top of that the 3 new ROTW ships, the miner, the new Imperial ships....
Honestly.. I don't think the datapad limit could be set too high! 6 ships... 12 ships... Lord knows, most of us would easily and happily fill that limit. Till then I guess I'll just stick with my "Ship in a Bag" storage method.
