VICTORY Class SD? Are you kidding?! It would have to have the speed of a SLUG!

To keep things to scale, I think the only thing bigger than a vette they would be able to let players fly, would be the cap ship grievous was in at the beginning of epIII.














And they'd only give us the half that landed

I think small-to-medium type ships would be best, and leave the larger capital ships to the NPCs. Nebulon B's, Dreadnaughts, Luxury Liners, and Corvettes would be great.

Feasible Ships:


Gunboats (the lowest, earliest capital ship class, starter Cap Ships if you will)


Freighters, like the Civilian Transports (the ones with 4 engines and a cockpit on a neck, they're white)


The Gallofree Medium Transports (you escort a couple during the RG Ceptor and Heavy X and Vak missions, also the ones that take off from Hoth)


Corvettes (Oh baby)


Nebulon B (the ones with a small engine pod at the end of an long corridor, the Med Frigate in RotJ and ESB. These'd be fine since, although they're quite big, there isn't actually a very big area to move around in inside)


The Interdictor Clas Star Destroyer, without the big Gravity Well generators (the smallest class of SD I've seen)


Mon Cals are possible, as there are many variants of Mon Cal ship, not just the huge ones. Smaller ones would be cool.


Space Stations, like big Guild Halls in space


Other variants of the above ships, lots of which seen in X-Wing Vs TIE Fighter: Balance of Power



Ships you want, but know we won't get. Ever.


ISDs


Venator Class SDs (the ones in RotS, with the twin bridge)


Mon Cals (the biiiiiig mothers)


Super Star Destroyers (if I ever got my hands on one of these I'd have to change my pants)

Well if I had to guess I'd say we will at least be able to fly Vettes.

I'd really like to see a class of ship in the 250-400m range for all three factions, too. I'd say that's right in the area of damn imposing, but not so big you have to pull a three-point turn just to change directions in a sector.

Vettes are the only thing I would count on, though, since they pretty much already had all the artwork done for them. Perhaps that freed up some time to work on some other ships as well, but I don't feel comfortable speculating on anything else right now.

I'm pretty sure the one in Deep Space is an Imperial-class Star Destroyer. Victory-class are a little smaller. 900 meters on the VSD, while the ISD is 1,600 meters.

I called "Spaceball 1" already...you have to go with "Spaceball 2".
