If you guys agree on stats I'd love that.
I copied what Anakin wrote. And modified the range from km to meters.
So things left to figure out:
Hull strength?
Weapon damage?
Is there anything else that I have forgotten? |
It could be a "platform", with different modular equipment:
One light and quick version with high speed blasters (low damage, high accuracy), one slower with a passenger seat and some cargo capabilities, one reconnaissance with upgraded sensors, and perhaps one with concussion missiles for taking out tanks...

I really like that idea, Anakin.

This would be a great possibility for a Rebellion Era ship for the Alliance. As limited as they are with regards to Capital-scale assault transports, a Gallofree Medium Transport could be reconfigured as a carrier and kick these things out in low orbit to support SpecForce or Sector Command operations. The transport could either hang around and recover them or jump out and leave the ship's in play for an extended deployment.
The only thing I don't like is the Shuttle part of the name. To me, Shuttle implies something capable of carrying more passengers and cargo than this thing seems capable of.

Yeah feel free to change the word to whatever you think is better. I guess when I wrote the word I was thinking kinda of a smaller Lambda class vessel.
Like a personal transport (literally) that would take you from one ship/planet to another.
Personally I plan on using it without any weapons. Maybe even as a Jedi transport.
