Ship on page 29

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

Hey folks,

What is the ship on page 29 of the core book?

A Crescent-X9 according to this

It's the Nebulon Ranger (a Crescent X9) from the old Tales of the Jedi comic books, or something like it.

Gah, I wish they wouldn't put art for ships that don't fit the time frame in the book. I keep seeing stuff I like and realize it would be like....4000 years old at the time of the this game...

If my players asked for an outdated ship, I'd be happy to invent an updated version. Though I suppose it'd be an interesting campaign premise if some players salvaged an abandoned ancient ship that was left adrift and mostly preserved by the vacuum of space. Or if the first session involved them stealing a restored antique.

Sure, but there's plenty of ancient ships still running in Star Wars.

I mean, the Crucible was more than a thousand years old by the time it showed up in The Clone Wars.

The Corsair was part of two different wars a millennium apart.



It would seem that in the world of Star Wars, things can be kept running for thousands of years if someone just puts enough care and effort into it.
