Editing Talk:Luxury 5000 Yacht

I did two edits on this page, the first was just fixing the skill listed (it was listing the Luxury 3000 instead of 5000)

The second edit I made based on my own observations to more closely match the information here  http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Personal_Luxury_Yacht_5000 I upgraded the scale to capitol scale-- the ship has room to carry 6 starfighters. I Couldn't justify it being only 1D tougher than a YT-1300 or X-Wing. The ship is more than double the size of the Millennium Falcon.  The ship is clearly depicted (and indeed Wookipedia backs up) that the ship has a pair of blaster cannons mounted port and starboard of the bridge. I upped the speed as this is a ship for the very wealthy. The 100 metric tons is also way too low for a ship this size, so I bumped the carrying capacity up as well.--[[User:TheRiov|TheRiov]] 16:38, 14 September 2011 (EDT)

Until i see a listed source for the changes, im going to keep it as it were and lock it as such until i am presented with a source.

lock not necessary. I'm not getting into an edit war with anyone. I just wanted to create the alternate page.  The image does fairly clearly indicate the existence of two laser cannons, however.--[[User:TheRiov|TheRiov]] 16:38, 14 September 2011 (EDT)

== re: the picture ==

the picture is of a custom ship named [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Uwana_Buyer Uwana Buyer].
here's our listing for that ship: [[Uwana Buyer]]

I don't dispute that. I guess I'm putting more faith in wookipedia, which does list the pair of cannons. I did go back to both the two sources where the (unique version of) ship appears. The first is a short story that appeared in the Star Wars Adventure journal, but no d6 stats exist of course, the second  is the SWGamer magazine that does give  d20 stats for the ship. The stats are a little baffling though. Though its the up-armored version of the ship that Karrde is using, its got lower DR and barely more hull than  a YT-1300 despite being double the length. I do see where your conversions are coming from, but in this case the game stats in SWG just feel wrong.  This is a ship my PC's are using in one of my PBP campaigns, so we've done a lot of thinking about it. Ship carrying capacity in SW is always a little bizarre though. The Bulk Freighters like the Action-line have literally 500x the lifting capacity of a YT-1300 and are only four times the length. I guess I'm also looking at ship cost. The WK is listed at just over 3.75m credits, and the Luxury 5000 about a quarter of that. I guess you do pay something for luxury, but a single TIE fighter seems like it should have some trouble taking something so big apart, but with the stats as written, that just isn't going to happen.) Would you be averse to me creating an alternate page for the same vehicle? --[[User:TheRiov|TheRiov]] 00:41, 15 September 2011 (EDT)
