Lambda Class shuttles

[Taren Nighteyes]

OK - I have access to all the Star Wars d20 books, so please help me with a page(s) that provide details on Lambda class shuttle(s).

The GM is giving our group one for the new game that starts in a few weeks, and I wanted to get all the details of the ship put together. He said it was a lambda class shuttle, and I am not nearly as much a Star Wars geek as he is, so I'm having trouble figuring out which models in the Starships of the Galaxy book, or other books, are considered Lambda class shuttles.

Thanks for your help!

The Lambda-class shuttle appeared in RotJ; it was the ship Luke, Han, & Leia flew in to Endor, & Palpatine flew in to the Death Star 2. It's not a light freighter like the Millenium Falcon.

It's the white one with three large wings (two pointing to the sides & down that can fold up when landing, & one on top like a fin).

Not sure what book it's in.

Ah, my favorite ship in Star Wars. No, really, it is. My first one was back in 1983, and I called her the Princess Jennifer. ::Sigh:: Now, its just part of a mountain-side on the Forest Moon of Endor. Don't ask.

The Lambda Class Shuttle is in the d20 Starships of the Galaxy, if my memory serves. As to the actual page number, I really don't know, but I can look it up when I get home tonight and let you know.

Here's a pic of one: http://www.geocities.com/Area51/4530/shuttle.gif

and if one have ever played the tie-fighter "simulator" game on pc, the "gunship" was a modified lambda shuttle i think.

quite a nice design indeed

Note that SotG isn't designed for the revised SW rules. The main change is doubling all DR values.

Not to mention the actual speeds of the craft according to the new space combat system (or was that covered in SOTG? I don't have the book and I can't afford it at the moment, so I wouldn't know.)

You can find the speeds of the craft inthis WOTC article

Also, if you Google "Shuttle Tydirium", you can find lots of stuff (that's the Lambda Han and the gang flew in the movie).
