Smugglers/Pirates love and need their ships, without them we would be not be able to do what we do (yes I know we dont smuggle in game I'm speaking metaphorically). As a new master pilot I'm giddy over my YT and after a few days have finally settled on her name as well as a name for my Krayt. What is or will be the name of your ship or ships?
YT-1300 - The Malleus Maleficarum (or TheMalleus for short)
M21-T Krayt Gunship - The Auto de fe
The Malleus Maleficarum or Witch Hammer was writen in 1486, commissioned by Pope Innocent VIII (the irony of his name is not lost on me) as a guide to "uncovering and dealing with witches and heretics during the middle ages Inquisition. The Malleus isconsidered one of the bloodiest doctrines ever written.
The Auto de fe was the public humiliation or "penance" the church gave to convicted heretics and witches during the spanish inquisition. Those who refused to "repent" were burned alive in the public squareand those who did repent were first strangled to deaththen burned in the public square. Other public humiliations were offered based on the charges but I think you get the over all idea of the de fe.
What can I say I enjoy horror movies and history

YT-1300 is called the Eon Penguin because, well, I'm sure you can figure it out.

Couldn't pass up the opportunity, not everyday you get to quote that movie.

Dunelizard: Green Wind
Krayt: Huttuk (Hutt-sized)
YT-1300: Ulwan Gopptula (Smuggler's Ransom - quite fitting for a ship acquired in a bounty hunting-related business deal)

Something inside of me wants to name my xwing "Fried Porkins Rinds" or "Porkins' Revenge" in memory of our lost soldier, Porkins.

I just dropped rebel pilot (I never even made it off the first tier anyway) to start working for my YT.
My Z95 was named "The Bat-Wing"
When I get my YT I will name it "The 'Vette".
I do this in honor ofthe mcChris lyric:
"My backpack's got Jets
Well, I'm Boba the Fett
I Bounty Hunt for Jabba Hutt
To finance my 'Vette."
...which really makes me laugh and it somewhat appropriate because I am SERIOUSLY thinking of adding BH to my Smuggling repitore. Also because It reminds me of going to the theater to see Corvette Summer for the sole reason of Mark Hamill starring in it.
Soooo
Right now, I'm flying the beginner freelance ship given to me by the trainer. It's called the"BMW".
I have no idea what secondary ship I will go for (after seeing the new ships for the Wookie Cookie) but I did want to have a Firespray and call it the"Blue Fang".
