The Nubian J-Type 307 Princess model luxury yacht is a junior model in the Nubia Star Drives Inc. J-Type 300 series of luxury yachts. It is slightly smaller than their 76m premier J-Type 327 Royal model made famous by Queen Amidala of Naboo.

During the clone wars and the galactic civil war, many civilian ships were pressed into military service. Since the J-Type 300 series yachts were known for their speed and heavy shielding they made excellent candidates for militarization.

Here are two configurations of the J-Type Princess:

The model is a Hallmark Keepsakes ornament. Since it is 6.25 inches long I had to come up with a justification for the scale. The 76m J-Type 327 should be about 10 inches long in 1:270 X-Wing scale. At Huge ship scale of 1:450 my model would be the right size but it would look dumb on a Huge/Epic ship base. So I created a home-brew variant; the smaller Princess 307 model which could be any size I want.

I think it's kinda cool that they don't have a primary weapon. The Combat Refit depends entirely on its missiles and torpedoes and the Tactical Support version is all about handing out Target Locks and free actions etc. I haven't play tested these yet but it seems to me that they might be pretty cool in a home-brew Epic mission.

As always I'm just doing this out of a sense of fun-and-games.

Edit. I forgot to mention. I didn't have access to a reload action icon so I used the mobile arc icon on the combat refit pilot card since it looks similar. I may be able to fix that later.

Shiny! Quite literally in this case.

the J Type has a length more than twice the length an YT-1300 has (76 meters)... as such, this ship is more an epic ship than a big one... ...could be an interesting ship to play but should be better to configure it as an epic one, with the possibility of regenerating his shields and so one...

as an alternative you have the J-Star Skiff, who has a good shielding but also can be armed, this one has been produced during the last days of the clone wars (is the last ship of senator Amidala on episode III...) and might have the same dimensions you had posted on this pictures (simillar than the YT-1300)

Very cool build! There is an estes model rocket kit that comes with the J-type nubian in roughly the correct scale for the ship if you adjust it using the epic sliding scale. I converted mine into the Nubian Combat Cruiser and have been flying it the last couple hotac missions I've played. Tremendously fun ship to field in a support role and incredibly challenging given its 0 evade.

As you can see, the size of it really pushes the limits of what is useable on a large base. When it had the strakes attached to the engines it was longer than a rebel transport!

I've been following your HotAC adventures for a while. I like your combat cruiser conversion and paint job. You have some great stuff going on.

Any reason that it only has a right Troll?

Nope. Totally an oversight on my part. I'll have to re-do the dial. Thanks for catching that.

Edit: Fixed!
