Re: Shuttles

The YT-1300 is BIG.  Be hard to find a place to land in urban sort of places, could work on large expansive maps though.

Re: Shuttles

Well...how about one in the YT series? The 1300 wasn't the only one...

YT-2400:

Re: Shuttles

The 1300 was the most common one though.  The 2400 and 2000 were pretty expensive and hard to acquire, not something the Alliance could get en masse.  Although I really can't think of any other 'shuttle' type ships that the rebels could use, apart from stolen Imperial shuttles.

Another idea for the Empire - stormtrooper transports.  They were in the X-Wing games:  http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Stormtrooper_transport

Edit: oo oo in that article, it says "Although designed for the Galactic Empire, many DX-9 were also often used by other factions, most notably the Rebel Alliance" - idea?  Imperials could use their shuttles and the rebels could use these DX-9s.

Re: Shuttles

I still think the 1930 and 1760 look REALLY cool, even if they never showed up in the movies/games.

Edit: I actually think the YT-1930 would be a GREAT idea...i even found this diagram for the inside. Take a look! big_smile

Re: Shuttles

Ya we would need Shuttles... But I hope if they come that the controls for em are easier then they were in GC...

Re: Shuttles

As was said, the YT-1300 is too big. It's a freighter, not a personnel transport. Having said that, some smaller YT craft might actually work.

At the moment, though, I'm content with the devs just making something up. Or the Rebels being given ground transports. We need more diverse teams.
