YT-series

I liked the Galaxy Guide 6; Tramp Freighters 2nd edition, but I did not
like the faults in the ship modification system, which means that you
cannot upgrade your stock YT1300 to the same standard as the Millenium
Falcon. This is my answer to that problem.

And also a way to get one heck of a ship, based on the YT1432-R model
Se below for explanation of the numbers.

Capsule: The YT-Series is reliable, durable and modifable - hence
its popularity.

There are three standard models, from the basic 1200 to the standard
1300 and finally, the deluxe model, the 1400.


The model 1200 lacks the bow mandibles, but have instead a small boom
extension forward. However, this means that it cannot take as much extra
equipment due to space limitations.

Length: 25.0 Meters                         Picture: Galaxy Guide 6 p83
Cargo Capacity: 100 Ton

Note: The GG6 stats for this craft, the Dynasty  have a length of 35m but
I do not think that is right so I changed it to 25m


The model 1300 has the trademark most people associate with the YT-series,
namely the bow mandibles.

Length: 26.7 Meters                         Picture: Starwars RB p120
Cargo Capacity: 100 Ton


The model 1400 is basically a model 1300 with the empty space between the
bow mandibles filled with a cargo hold, configured to take maximum 60 ton
of extra cargo.

Length: 30.6 Meters                         Picture: Galaxy Guide 6 p88
Cargo Capacity: 160 Ton


Subgroups:
The three models can be configured during construction to different
types of standard regarding their maneuverability, hull rating and the
placement of the command pod.

These modifications to the basic design does not warrant any mishap
modifiers since the ships are built to take them as standard.

xx1x means that the ship has its command pod on the starboard
side, while xx2x means it is placed on the port side.
Some vessels have both and are therefore numbered xx3x, however,
both pods are not used to control the ship, one is mostly used to
house powerful sensors or equipment/cargo up to 10 ton in weight.

xxx0 means that the ship has a standard maneuverability of 0D.
xxx1 means that the ship is built to withstand a maneuverability of 1D.
xxx2 means that the ship is built to withstand a maneuverability of 2D.

A special offer is the upgrading of the ships hull by two pips, giving
a standard hull rating of 4D+2. Those ships who have this carry the
suffix -R for Reinforced. Example YT1300-R.

The replacement of the standard systems with improved ones does not change
the model number, which means that there are countless variations of these
three models out in the galaxy.

People does not usually call their ship with the complete model and variant
number, using instead the basic model number to describe their vessel.

This means that Han Solo's YT1300, the famous Millenium Falcon, is really
an YT1312-R, albeit very heavily modified...
