Scum GR-75 conversion kit.

By Marinealver, in X-Wing Epic Play

So I set up my conversion kit for the GR-75 to the scum faction back in the day. As you may know this was the GR-45 in the picture but the stats and the dial are the same. If someone wants to make an actual GR-45 set up and use the Rebel Transport model (painted brown) that is fine with me.

Anyways I had to clear some attachments so all images were replaced with image hosting links from other forums. But I am currently out of space. Right now I used a PDF compressor so let me know if it shrinks the size. But as for now this and my Allies & Mercenary alternative format are taking up all my space. Enjoy.

This is some outstanding work! Even though FFG will inevitably release the Scum corvette, I still plan to make at least one Scum GR-75 for variety. Right now my Rebel and Imperial capital ship fleets are:

REBEL:

Nebulon-B Frigate (command ship)

DP-20 Frigate (work in progress)

CR-90 Corvette

CR-12 Corvette

Two GR-75 Transports

IMPERIAL:

Arquitens Command Cruiser [command ship (commissioned - on waiting list)]

2 Imperial Raiders

2 Gozantis

I plan to fly two VT-49 Decimators with this fleet as well. Not really capital ships but they’ll balance out the 2 fleets.

And here’s what I have in mind for Scum:

Scum Corvette (TBA command ship)

C-ROC

At least one, maybe 2, of these Scum conversion Gr-75s

I figure this is enough for Scum since, though individually wealthy, Scum leaders don’t typically have the resources of the Empire or even a full-blown Rebellion that draws support from a multitude of systems.

Of course, ships will be added if FFG starts the Huge ship cycle over after the Scum Corvette.

Thanks for putting this back out here. So thematically cool, and so readily available. I don't know why I didn't grab all this information the first time around, but I totally am this time. And then I will subject my group to a new Scummy terror.

I also have to give credit where credit is due.

gabe69velasquez made the artwork for the Scum Ship card and the Bloody Credit. He also does a lot of home made cards for things such as DP-20. So if you like homebrew items you should check out his posts.

Speaking of which @gabe69velasquez I am surprised he hasn't reposted some of his homebrews of huge ships here yet.

FYI baxio did a play test and posted the batrep on his blog. You can find it here.

glad to know that people enjoyed it before the C-Roc came out. :)

It's remains a solid conversion kit. The release of the C-ROC didn't change that. Like I said, I plan to convert at least one, possibly two, GR-75s for Scum capital ship variety. OK, most likely two. When I play, I play big.

Gabe does a lot of interesting things. He should get to work on this forum.

I'm very busy elsewhere but I'll get back to this soon-ish.

I post this last one because I feel it's a pity they aren't using him in the new Han Solo movie.

The DP 20 needs to be given its own thread. Same for the scum corvette.

Just saying that the artwork is done so well that it really should have its own thread and not be under the shadow of the GR-75.

For the Aft section, ordnance tubes is a may so it seems redundant. Otherwise, Nice Job!!!
