Considering my character's name, I'd have to call it "mv -f".

"Jabberwock" - taken from the poem jabberwocky


"Hooligan" - taken from a science fiction book and i can't for the life of me remember which one it is


"Not a smuggling ship" - just because it would amuse me


"Golden Sled" - play on my character's muon habit

Lol I wondered why it didn't sound right. My friend quoted it to me while I typed, he seems to say really weird stuff though. Partially because hes Korean and understanding him sometimes is a chore

Heh. No worries. I love that movie.


"Oh God, what is that don't tell me."


"I know. There's a problem with your face."


"What is that stuff?"


"Black blood of the earth."


"You mean oil?"


"I mean black blood of the earth."


Still don't know what I'd call my ship. I might steal my PnP ship if I can cobble together something that looks slow and ugly but is really much faster and harder hitting than it looks: the Gamorrean Whore.

Every good smuggler needs a ship. And every good ship needs a name. So, when the Space Expansion comes, what are you going to name your ship? (assuming we get the ability to do so...... /prays to the smuggling gods)

Vipossk's Scoundrel Poll I II








My first thought was "Deem's Deliveries" but then I thought again and decided that I didn't like it. The best idea I read in here was the unidentified vessel ... and if it is ok (and possible) I would like to borrow that idea for myself since I suck at coming up with names.


As for the type of ship I want, I would love to have a bunch of stuff that they probably won't allow (and I am not even listing the capital ships).


My Preferances (all modified of course) are as follows:


YT-2400
Blockade Runner
Nebula B Frigate
Personal Luxary Yacht 3000
Marauder-class Corvette


I hope they let us modify and build them with creativity. Han Solo was able to put equipment form other types of ships to make the Falcon unique and effective. Either as a Ship Builder (or a Smuggler Specific ability) they should allow us to do the same in addition to storage compartments.


I also hope that they allow us to have multiple ships (So I can have a fighter too).

One of the following:

* Not For Hire (from the Riverworld saga)

* Grey Area (from the Culture novels, specifically Excession)

* a long indecypherable string of letters and numbers designed to confuse people and which I would change as often as i could.

I hope we can have two ships. I'm getting an X-wing, no question, but they run a little low on trunk space...so I'm gonna need something bigger for business trips.


So I'll call it the "Stationwagon".

Maybe one of the following:


  • "SS Contraband" (SS = Smuggler's Ship??)

  • "Spice of Life"

  • "Red Dwarf"


  • "Spice Runner"

  • "Vegematic"


  • "Kessel's Bane"

Good question, Vipossk!

Actually, YEARS ago, in a very boring college class, I designed a ship that I think would be cool. Kind of based on the Lambda Class shuttle (Shuttle Tyderium) in terms of swing-wing technology, but also having some similarities to the B-wing in terms of armament on the swinging wing. It'd also only have one large wing which acts as a solar panel and armor/shield deflector, so I guess it takes after the TIE fighter to a degree as well. It was pretty cool. I designed it based off of a particular desk design.


I'm sure it won't be in the game though. I haven't given SOE the rights to use my work.


As for what specific ship I'd want, either a YT-1300 (sorry, it just IS a smuggler ship to me), possibly a Firespray (think Slave I), or some other stock freighter that's been heavily modified. The YT-2400 is nice too, definitely. A Nebulon-B, though, man, that thing'd be HUGE. You'd need a pretty serious crew to man that ship. I'm hoping to do ok without a co-pilot (unless I get an astrogation droid), so whatever I get has to be pilotable by a single person.

My ship would either be :


a) YT-1300 frieghter


b) YT- 2400 light frieghter


c) Star Viper Assualt Fighter



And they would either be named:



a) Wing Zero


b) The Bebop


c) Capsule Corp.



Paying homage to my anime roots of course...

Why not call it a Winnebago?

Man, for something I love, this is a really hard question. I'd probably get an X- or A-Wing, and for my "vacationing" ship, I'd use something decently fast, put lots of armor/shielding/firepower into it. Of course, since they're gonna be probably only giving certain ships, I'd be forced to use the YT-1300 or one of the later models. If tough deciding though, maybe something likeMara's Jade Shadow.


For a name, I'm at a loss for words. Probably something inconspicious, but yetunique and roguish at the same time. Something like the Pickslide, or Devil's Advocate.I dunno though, its awhile away...

I intend to have a converted YT-2400, one suped up with a couple of "surprises" for any Imperial patrols that try to stop me. And because it's the most immersive name I can think of she's going to be called "The Idiot's Array".
