Thread: New expansion ship
My real hope is that they make a pob ship that could function like my yacht, ie area nice enough for get togethers, as well as something i could take up and do combat with.
I'm betting the Ebon Hawk for the HK-47 presence myself, heh.
Though of course to satisfy lore, it won't be the actual Ebon Hawk but a freighter of the same model. And honestly, I wouldn't mind them adding it all that much, as it's one of the cooler EU vessels. I'd like the YT-2000 at some point myself (favorite of the Corellian transport designs), but if it's the Ebon Hawk, I won't be all that sad.
The Mustafar content seems to be geared a fair amount towards ancient republic era content, so the odds of it showing up are pretty high. As long as there's a feasible lore reason you'd stumble across such an old ship, I'm happy.
I'm doubting the YT's a bit, as they seem out of place for the style of content coming out with this expansion. If anything, we'll likely see them added in later (via patch) as crafted starships that shipwrights can make.

You know, I was thinking the same thing about it.
I have a sinking suspicion that its actually going to be the Ebon Hawk.. that is going to really suck if they do that.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I Think you might be right.The Devs said it will be a POB Ship that will be Lots of fun. Well I don't think the YT Series are all that different internally & Externally, so putting them in will be no more fun than the 1300.Also, with the new TV Series coming "I Have heard it could be set around the Time of the Ebon Hawk", so it would be no supprise if Lucasarts/SOE tries to plug the series like they did with Ep-III.
No, they've said the time period would be between Ep III and A New Hope. The Ebon Hawk was long before that.

Ya, the JSF situation is a crock. Only Imps... The same Imps who 'in story' do not condone Jedi, not even in thier own faction.

Personally I always wanted to see more transports/freighters with little or no combat ability. They would be good for roleplayers, player events, adding more depth to PvP, etc.
I'm all for this! I've said for a long time that there should be a few lower level (both lower tier and mass) POB ships. I mean, when your 2-2-2-2 pilot, these things would be a hell of a lot more useful than they get to be at ACE. Even if it's just a small ship with one pilot gun and one turret (less than 200k mass), it would be really cool to do repairs and have a place to sit down inside (I do think that smaller POBs should have a smaller item limit, maybe 25-50 items and no loot box?).
So yeah: Ebon Hawk would be nice indeed. I'd like to see lots more ships added than just one. Oh and that 8 passenger vehicle looks terrible, it maybe Star Warsy but that is really going to be the "reward item"??? How about a new house type instead of yet another vehicle/mount?

Pick one:
1) THe Jupiter 2 (Free Robot with 5 empty Yoda Yogurt cups)
2) Consular Class Space Cruiser (EP1)
3) FireFly Class (companion included :smileywink![]()
4) H Type Nubian Yacht (any ofAmidalas ships)
5) SoroSuub Horizon-Class Star Yacht (Jade Shadow)
Could be anything really. I Prefer the Skpray myself.
There is a ship I remember seeing in game when JTL was first released. I was only a Tier 2 pilot out in Naboo space in a Y wing when I flew by this Large Cruiser. It had a long Body, with Downward swept wings in the rear portion. Dark Colored hull. It had a Crew cabin in the forward section mounted in the top and it was armed. I followed it around Naboo space for awhile then It Hypered out. Never seen it again. This was only days after JTL released. No I didnt take a screenshot (wish I did), I was too busy admiring it. NICE ship. Unlike anything I'd seen in the movies. Maybe someone knows, or have seen this one before?
Take my love, take my land
Take me where I cannot stand
I don't care, I'm still free
You can't take the sky from me
Take me out to the black
Tell them I ain't comin' back
Burn the land and boil the sea
You can't take the sky from me
There's no place I can be
Since I found Serenity
But you can't take the sky from me

Pilot the new YT-2400, a multi-passenger ship fashioned after that of Dash Rendar.
