Topic: Shiplist on website

Theres a few discrepancies on the shiplist I noticed:

E-Wings are listed for the rebel alliance, but they weren't built until years after the film period. Perhaps someone is getting confused with Z-95 Headhunters (which have the shape of an E)

Also, the rebels have no infantry transport for space maps. I know there was no sight of one in the films, but the Imps have the Sentinel and Lambda transports. I'd advise using the YT-1300 (Model of Millenium Falcon for those who don't know) as its an old model of transport that the rebels could easily acquire, as well as giving the cool "I'm flying the falcon" feeling.

What about those cylindrical ships?  I don't remember what they're called, darn it... you see them in EAW if you have ground troops in a space battle.  Also the ones on Hoth.  I guess they might be a bit big, but compared to a Star Destroyer...

Gallofree transports are what I think you're talking about.

They're way too big to fit in a hangar. They're freighters anyway, not transports.

Eh?


They ARE transports, just not of the kind we're talking about. (There isn't a great deal of different between a freighter and a transport anyway in SW terms)

Re: Shiplist on website

The E-Wing is built by Freitek, a rebranded Incom, the makers of the X-Wing. It is a Rebel craft, but at t he time the Rebels have probably switched their name to the New Republic.

The space map transports are a bit of a problem, one solutiion would be using the LAAT/i, wrecks of those things must've been all over the place.

According to Wookiepedia the Alliance used numerous of these when they found a bunch still intact:
