Now...my actual suspicion is this is just a bit of in-book joking by the Devs about a discrepancy like the one between the HWK-290 and HWK-1000 light freighters. I've done a quick search of both the AoR & EotE forums, not find anything. However my question revolves around the Hyperfoil 1000-XTC, which is listed as an Airspeeder on pg. 60 of the Desperate Allies Sourcebook and as a landspeeder on pg. 52 of the Fly Casual Sourcebook. There are minor differences in the two vehicle profiles, mostly having to due with max altitude, cost, the speed, and some strange differences in the HT and SS thresholds. Even wookieepedia notes this with the following passage...

"According to Galladinium's Fantastic Technology, the Hyperfoil 1000-XTC is 15 meters long, whereas Arms & Equipment Guide states that it is 7 meters long."

Now, I have no issue with the reprinting of information, just looking for a bit of clarification on this point, or at least agreement with my initial thought of it being a bit of in-game joking about discrepancies between older & newer RPG systems.

Thanks ahead of time for your thoughts & time.

The HWK thing was a long and ridiculous argument, that FFG made a nice joke out of. And WEG and WOTC (and others) all have made length errors before.

This... looks more like a boo-boo. They are close... but probably only because they tend to follow the conventions for civilian personal repulsorcraft, those stats are both appropriate for respective airspeeders/landspeeders. It looks to me like they wanted a civilian landspeeder in one book, a civilian airspeeder in another, and (as they seem to LOVE the Galladinium's catalog [and why shouldn't they?]) they pulled from the same source in both books without realizing the doubleprint....

Good question to ask the Devs.

Yeah, sometimes in 'canon' people give off the wrong information, with such a large world to play in, there will be inconsistencies, sadly these things have to somehow be explained. I love how they did it for the HWK, simply make the larger version of it another variant of the HWK line called the HWK-1000. It solves the problem by establishing the discrepancies as two different ships.
