Kinda followed the theme from my guild for the ships (fans of Mr. H. Potter we are lol):


A-Wing: Ravenclaw Seeker-Fast, maneuverable and all around fun to fly circles around hapless npcs lol


X-Wing: Ravenclaw Keeper-All purpose good ship, but currently stripped of parts to supply....


Advanced X-Wing: Ravenclaw Keeper II-Think this one's gonna be overall general use, gonna LIKE this


Y-Wing: Ravenclaw Bludger-Tough, durable, can hand out and take a beating, currently deeded


B-Wing: Ravenclaw Bludger II-Once I get master, that is lol


Yacht: Cordova Forager-Used for simple transport during my BE DNA hunting/resource days, also for simple group transport for guil hunts


All ships were done up in Ravenclaw house colors (black/blue) because I like that color combo and I'm unofficialy in charge of the Ravenclaw section of the guild (was one of the founders lol). Now all I need to find is a texture kit that works on my Advanced X-Wing (grumble, grumble)

No, you're shackaled to the Cooky forums from now on.

And I probably won't be getting the Jebay Starfighter until after I've got bored of ROTW content. Getting 5.2k Imp faction will probably cost a lot too :/

M-22 "Krayt"- Predator's Fury - Primary combat ship for helping out guildmates and general fighting in space.

YT-1300 - Dragon's Claw - RP and general travel

KSE Firespray - Blood Hunter - No real role outside of cruising around in a Firespray and use for travel now and then.

Eta-22 - Shrike - Fast attack / hit and run


I'm still looking to get the Vaksai, the ARC-170, and the Belbullab 22. Don't know which one'll end up moth-balled with my yacht yet, but I'll figure that out after I get a chance to fly them.




For my rebel pilot alt:


X-Wing - Vortex X - General combat

Y-Wing - Vortex X-L - Missile runs / heavy combat

A-Wing - Vortex X-A - Fast attack and hit/run

Sorosuub - Serenity (the character's a monk-type) - Basically where he lives.

Vortex Flux = Greivous Fighter set up for fighter to fighter combat.


Raptor XI = Krayt Gunship modifiable to either run as a Bomber / Interdictor or for FIghter to Fighter combat.


Raptor XII = Vaksai Fighter set up for Light Bomber / Fighter.


Grumbling Gronda = Y-8 Mining Vessel which is worthless atm but will eventually be my mining ship if it gets fixed.


Ion Storm = Firespray set up as a Bomber.


Diamond Cutter = YT1300 Corellian Transport. This is my pride and joy. When I can get together a full crew for this one it is my favorite to take on any mission. A full crew for me consists of Pilot (me) Copilot(ops chair) 2 Gunners (turrets) and an Engineer (Master Shipwright)



I was out in the Diamond Cutter last night helping a friend with his tier 3 missions. Man is that fun.

Bendo Kyn on Starsider flies:
Y-wing Longprobe: Gold Leader. This is my main ship for the most part.
X-wing: Ruby Rocket. Because every rebel pilot needs an x-wing.
A-wing: Unnamed. Just to have one.
Heavy Z-95: Hardball Because I wanted to see if the heavy ships needed nerfed. They do.
X-wing: Miner. Ummmm mining

Worg Moonshooter on Ahazi flies:
Soro Sub: Lady Aldera. Exploration.
X-wing: Jolly Roger. Main starfighter
Z-95: Lucky Gambler. Project ship that's pretty much scrap with the release of the new insanely heavy version.
Arc-170: Warwitch. Because it's a cool ship.

Rogann Dexter on Gorath flies:
Dunelizard: Dexter's Dagger. Main ship
Soro Sub: Dexter's Dare. Exploration
Scyk: Dexter's Dart. Been decomissioned since CU.
Arc-170: Dexter's Darlin. Because it's a cool ship.

Roddack Stern on Farstar flies:
TIE-IN: Unnamed. Main ship
Soro Sub: Regulator. Exploration

Sido Fot on Shadowfire flies:
Dunelizard: Moon Dancer. Main ship.
Kryxa....(sp?): Lylek. Cause it looks cool.
Soro Sub: Pride of Kalla' Un. Exploration.

Meeka Tako on Chimera flies:
Scyk: Ronto One. Space Junk Salvage.
Soro Sub: Starcrawler. Temporary home. Let's face it Meeka shouln't even be a pilot. He's only a Jawa.

Wuzzuka on Flurry flies:
Dunelizard: Unnamed. Main ship. I'll probably name it Uller.
Soro Sub: Wandering Worshyyr. Exploration.

I think that's all of them. No wonder I haven't made ace yet.

  • TIE Opp: Lady's Dragon (the dragon I ride )

  • TIE Adv: Lyx of Death (from an old RPG I used to play, was a Melee move used by a similar named char)

  • Decimator: Sapphire Star

  • Y-8: Solar Rufuge ((Converted to an RP Medical frigate, works great with all the rooms))

  • Jedi: ((Unamed as of yet, thinking about "YT-10" as it looks like a tiny version of the YT ))

  • Royal Gaurd Interceptor: Crimson Star ((not yet aquired, will when the damn quest gets unbugged))

The TIE Adv will probably get mothballed in favour of a Heavy TIE. Sad that these new ships are yust completely outclassing the old ones though

What the heck, I'll play

TIE Bomber: Bantha Bus, heavy weapons platform/space miner/heckuva-lot-faster-than-it-looks (GREAT engine and Engine Overload Three) Rebel killer;
TIE Interceptor: Kraytslayer, light attack craft, so named because I successfully solo'ed a Krayt on the ground before I got it;
'Jedi Starfighter' (Actis?): unnamed at the moment, soon to be called Vader's Favor, unflown as of yet so we'll see how useful it is--tonight, once I buy me an astromech droid and some more program chips, gotta have my Capacitor Overload Three and Reactor Overload Three, don't leave hangar without 'em.

Planned:
Imperial Guard interceptor (when I get it): Bloody Amazon
Y8 mining ship (when I get it, one mission to go): Asteroid Herder
Decimator (got the ship, need the Ace ranking): Checkmate (hey, I AM named Chess, after all!)
