Pirate capital ship needs some upgrades!!!

By fist, in Star Wars: Edge of the Empire RPG

Looking for suggestions on upgrades for various capital ships that my pirate (privateer) organization has.

CR90 and Marauder corvette's

Nebulon B Frigate

Bulk Freighter's (hey! don't laugh)

I'd suggest downloading Oggdudes character creator. That has a very comprehensive list of vehicles and the upgrades you can put on them.

Engine Upgrades, Armor Upgrades, Shield Upgrades, Hyperdrive Upgrades

Almost any warship gains great benefits from an Advanced Targeting Array. Pay extra for some Mods (unless you're skilled enough to do the work yourself).

A few ion cannons would help capture ships. If it is a Sil 6 bulk freighter, then get a hangar. That way you can just bond villain any sil 4 ships you ionize. I am going to go against the grain on the other mods tho. You already have guns and shields. Get things like the amenities package and broadcast suite because a happy crew is a loyal crew and that keeps them from telling the ISB where you are.

Yeah the ATA has always been a favorite of our groups for pretty much all star ships. well worth it

So true with the last sentence. Great ideas, definitely will incorporate those into the fleet

You need to run the comparability checker and tell it to run as an earlier version, do this with the individual program and it should be fine.

Or just run the 1.7 version as this doesn't have the same issue as 1.8beta

Yeah definitely a great resource, use it regularly. Our group owns pretty much all the books so we have full access to all the ship mods, more just curious what others would actually modify their capital ships with for a pirating role.
