Unique ships

[Guest Scathane]

Well, for me it's definitely Slave I!

[NIIIC]

I just know two of these ships, the reset .... ..... , haven’t the faintest idea what they are, i only know Slave 1 an MF.

Ebon Hawk(my favorite ): Its your ship in Knights of the old republic. We dicussed it in another thread and agreed that it was surely the ancestor of the YT-1300.

 

Jabitha: A seed ship growen on Zenomma Zekot (sorry for the spelling)

 

Outrider: A YT-2400 amd Dash Rendars ship. Also one of my favorites

 

Virago: Prince Xizor's personnal ship.

 

Leviathan: The pride of the Republican navy during the sith wars. It was captured by Darth Malak when its captain defected.

I have never played KOTOR so I am not familiar with those ships, so I went for the Outrider, it's aesthetically more likable than the Falcon.

Well I like the Eclipse model SSD. As it was the only one of its' kind ever built I consider it to be unique. And it was the most powerful ship except for the two Death Stars.-Grand Moff Conway

[AdmiralFishface]

I always liked Kyle Katarn's first ship, forgot the name, though. I don't know how unique it was, but at least it's the only of it's class ever seen.

[Mad78]

Was it the Molden Crow or something like it?

[BadSamaritan]

I cant really pick a favorite, it seems that every ship has its weaknesses and strengths.

 

Although If i had to, I would pick the Mud Sloth

[Mad78]

Which one is that. Wasn't that in a book?

[Grand_Admiral_Thrawn]

Katarn's first ship was the Moldy Crow.

 

I have to agree with Paul on this one. I've always liked the sleek curves of the underside of the ESSD. I know there are two versions of that class, the brittle-looking elongated one, and the massive black SSD with the swooping underside. The latter (which I be;ieve is actually the smaller of the two) is my fav.

[Guest Scathane]

I would have guessed that the Millenium Falcon would have scored higher but I see that the EU has done good things on the ship front...

[Krytos]

Well, there was actually two Eclipse class SSDs made, and then there's the Sovereign class SSD - which there was four of I think.

 

Personally, I like the Out Rider - much nicer YT series ship, and it would give the MF a run for its money any day.

[Guest Scathane]

I wonder whether the fact that the Outrider and the Ebon Hawk were in games has anything to do with their success...

[Grand_Admiral_Thrawn]

It could have a lot to do with thier general shape. They're both very smoothe and streamlined, and look similar in some ways. I though more people would be going for ships not on the list, the more powerful ones. It seems we have a lot of smuggler fans here .

[Mad78]

I am a fan of YT ships. They look good and are able to defend themselves.

The Ebon Hawk is my favorite because it looks so good and there was a little something else that made it really cool.

The outrider's shape is kind of appealing its one of the nicest "modern" ships.

[Guest Scathane]

The Ebon Hawk is my favorite because it looks so good and there was a little something else that made it really cool.

Now I'm curious...

[Mad78]

It has a nice shape (merging rond and square) heavy weapons(two turbolasers) its fast (fastest ship of Taris) and it has a lot of space in it and it also has a racer in its cargo bay.

[Barkoa]

Wasn't Katarn's ship the Raven's Claw? That's my favourite. THe one out of Dark Forces and Jedi Knight.

 

I also really like the Arc Hammer out of Dark Forces.

But that's all I could find of it. [/url]

[Grand_Admiral_Thrawn]

Moldy Crow was the name of Katarn's ship in Dark Forces and Jedi Knight. They upgraded to the Raven's Claw in Jedi KNight II.

[Mad78]

Katarn had quite awsome ships. Talon Karrde's Wild Karrde is pretty cool. And is it true that Booster Terrik painted his ISD red?

[Guest Scathane]

I couldn't find information on the Wildde Kardde in the databank (where I got my candidates from). What kind of ship was it?

[Mad78]

Its a modified Action IV Bulk Transport. Karrde reinforced the shields and fixed a few Turbolasers on it.

[Grand_Admiral_Thrawn]

Of all the smuggler ships, the Wilde Karrde is by far my favourite. It's not really big, but it'ms more than the Falcon.

And yes, Bookster did paint his ISD red. Quite a feat if Ido say so myself. I wonder how many gallons it took to cover all 1.6 Km of it, on boath sides, top to bottom.

[Valliet]

Did he sand between coats?

 

My favourite on the list is Outrider, but I'm sure I could name a host of others I find interesting...

[Guest Scathane]

Someone said the Outrider is in the special edition of a new hope... Can anyone verify this?
