Corellian Corvette

[Raven Redstar]

So, has anyone seen some set in stone configurations for the Corellian Corvette? This talk of expensive ships has lead me to look them up and for crew & passengers it has variable numbers based on configuration. I personally have not seen any actual configs for them and was wondering if anyone else has. If so, could they post them here with their source?

As per usual, thanks in advance!

have you tried looking here?

i know i put a few different corellian corvettes on there.

it is my opinion that the "configurations" are up to the buying customer for passenger room sizes, extra rooms for meetings, dining halls, etc. i prefer to think of the corellian corvette as a big star wars version of an RV. so i would suggest setting the ship up accordingly.

The Dark Stryder boxed set has a customized Corellian Corvette converted into a starfigher light carrier. I don't recall if they give the pricing for the customization, but there are deckplans and detailed information.

I think the configs are based on mission profile, not actual ship changes.

Yeah, but what's the difference in crew for? Is there really going to be that big of a disparity in crew for a ship with the same interior layout?

I'd like to see several different versions (say, cargo, passenger, scientific, etc.) and see how the cargo, passenger, and crew ratings change.

You mean something like the various configurations for the Imperial Taskforce Support Cruiser, as listed in the Dark Empire Sourcebook?

I guess I was just wondering if the corvette could be configured to minimum crew standards + maximum passenger & cargo, or does the passenger total come out of the cargo or what? They don't seem to have any set rules for the multi configurations.

Gry's Starship stats has the multiple versions of the YT-1300 with stats reflected accordingly. I was just wondering if someone needed to calculate cargo cost for each passenger. Or, does the crew requirements change based on other configurations? I figure crew should be a fairly fixed number and gunners would change based on the config, but not the other way around. I noticed that the craft doesn't list gunner requirements.

Well, in the Star Wars Sourcebook, the Corellian Corvette lists crew, passengers and cargo capacity as number sets (as in x-y) instead of set numbers. This was in keeping with the write-up stating that the Corvette could be modified to individual preferences. The only fixed stat variants I have seen are the privateer corvette and the Far Orbit from the Darkstryder campaign.

Thanks mcneill & everyone else for replying. I'll do some more digging/calculating.

I was wracking my brain trying to figure out some sort of baseline for which to build configurations on and using Matthias777's list of positions on a warship I came to the conclusion that the bare minimum required to simply operate a corvette would be 16.

1 Commander
7 Bridge Crew
8 Engineers (in engineering)

I came to the number of approximately 8 engineers when I took into account how many engineers are on duty in main engineering on the Enterprise in Star Trek. This being one of the only "capital scale" vessels that I've seen portrayed in some form of media. This doesn't necessarily mean that the ship will be ready for long missions or anything of the sort, but perhaps to taxi it while it's being worked on, or perhaps a quick jaunt in system.

Any additional crew for the ship would be extra crew watches, and some of the other fluff which gets added in, science teams, medical staff, armorers, etc... Gunners would be counted on a different listing based on the number required to actually operate every cannon placed on the ship, this would be pulled from additional crew and would perhaps have it's own pool of crewmen.

Anyway, if I get around to coming up with my own hard baseline, I will post it here.

Ah.. other than # passengers/crew/cargo/consumables, no change in the outward stats.. Gotcha
