[SWd20]Off on the Rim OOC(Full)

[Paxus Asclepius]

Making my own weapons saved me 496 credits so if I can cut construction time down then I would be very much happy, beside we all need something to in the lull of hyperspace and maybe my guy can build a Starfighter in the cargo hold.

It'll cost you a pretty penny, though; the raw materials for a TIE are 20K, and that's the cheapest piloted fighter out there. When you've accumulated that much cash, I'll be spending my share on a suit of GTU AV-1A Assault Armor with an integral E-Web and shield generator. It doesn't do quite as much damage, but it shoots faster, has more DR, and can be brought into much smaller places.

Well to be honest I've had some very bad experiances with TIE fighters and their lack of shields...

So I would be so tempted to try and make an A-Wing which is almost three times the raw materials...
Though the pure insaneness is tempting to do. At my current skill level and with taking a 10 every day for a 17 on the skill check, which passes and gives me 70 points completed a day it should only take me a little under 6 years, 6.45 to be exact, to make that A wing...

I also figure that the A-Wing weighs between 10 to 20 Metric Tons so it will fit in their but I imagine that even the princess would go out into the cargo hold at least once a month... I mean how many times can we have the same conversation...

"What under the tarp?"


"Ahhhh nothing, I'm recalibrating the backup Hyperdrive..."

Hmmm your idea might be quicker and cheaper too in the long run...

I think the prices for the raw material is wrong on the ships, you can buy an YT-1300 used cheaper than you can buy the raw materials... Maybe I should read my Starships of the Galaxy.

If it doesn't explain that difference, I'd suggest that you can build it used, with that cost, but because you're using used parts, it suffers from flaws as a used ship would do.

There is another option, though; if you can rip the droid brain out of the droid fighter, it's not only amazingly cheap, at less new than the parts for a TIE, but it's a much better ship. The ship is the size of an airspeeder, so it should have room for a cockpit.

Shatterstone, I notice that Talon's now packing a slugthrower, and is pretty decent at building them. Why isn't he proficient?

cause I messed up, I figured it was in the solider class feats, but I don't have an feats to spare and no real credits to make a decent blaster, so I guess I'll just keep it. :shrugs:

Those bullets can be expensive to miss with, at 10 credits a shot.

Seems to be worth it, I figure Craft: Slugthrowers means you can make the ammo too... So it's only 3.3 credits a shot. Now I just need to fix my feats...

Sorry I've been bereft of posting; everytime I actually manage to get online, I can't stay on long enough to post.


Ship looks great, like the ideas for who and how the ship was procured and who really owns it, and I'll put stuff on my character in the next two days. Right now, I'm pulling a 50+ hr work week and four college finals this week, so I'll be spotty until after Thursday.

I like the ideas you've come up with so far, the ship looks good to me.

I don't real want Kai to be the actual boss - I like the idea of her parents holding the real reins and your allegiance is to her parents, not really to her. However, of course if she gets hurt, you guys are in big trouble.

Of course, she thinks SHE is the real boss, but that's a whole different problem all together
