N1 Announced, Can this be Next?

I would love to see this released as a ship somewhere in between Epic Size and Large ships in order to add objective style ships to x-wing, similar to how Armada plays (Ok fine, I really just want this on my shelf), But I think the idea holds weight as adding different ways to win or play a normal game of x-wing would really mix things up.

No joke, I could see this being the Rebel Transport for the Republic. A smaller huge ship with no offense abilities, but a sturdy support ship.

Side note, if they DO release this, I don't care what paint scheme they give it, I'm spraying it solid chrome. I want to be able to bounce a later pointer off it!

Would it be too crazy to have ships this size on two medium bases like how epic ships are on two large bases?

Probably yes, but I wouldn't be against it.

Is there any other semi large ship in the PT?

There are a few more Naboo Vessels that could in theory fit, but lets be honest, If we are going to fly escort for one of the Queens ships, it really needs to be the Ep1 version, it's sleek curves and solid interior make this the best version of the other Naboo vessels.

Im also not against seeing this ship show up, its pretty nice looking for a weird transport.

Also, since this is 2.0. this would be a grand time to release latest?cb=20130227060259&format=original \

ANY SEMI LARGE SHIPS IN THE PT THAT ARE MORE ICONIC THAN THIS?

Would go well with a N1 escort, would bring in a bunch of Naboo crew members, and very recognizable. Yep, I am all for it.

As a Battle for Naboo fan I would also like to see the Police Cruiser and Naboo Bomber as well but those are more pipe dreams.

Nubian? We got lotsa that.

I’m definitely thinking about painting up one or more of my N1’s in that police blue! Battle for Naboo was my jam.

You could get Vader's:

The problem is the chrome finish on the N1 really doesn't look very chromey. If they try one of the beautiful Naboo shuttles and spoil it with a bad paint job it would be a travesty!

I've noticed the FFG articles don't accurately depict paint quality, and are often CGI renders.

There are definitely paints out the capable of perfect chrome reflections, like Spaz Stix mirror finish chrome. I would like to think FFG gets the good stuff.

I might be tempted to buy a limited run of Republic if they did this.

I made this a while back. It’s a hallmark keepsake ornament. Since it’s too small to be a J-type 327 Royal yacht, I homebrewed a junior variant I call the J-type 307 princess series yacht.

I made first edition pilot cards for it. (Please ignore the rotate arc icon, I was using it as a place holder for a reload action icon but never got around to correcting it).

Give it, like, 15 droid slots.

Really? That good to hear, I didn't know such a finish was possible just with paint. Well then, even if FFG don't manage it at least we can correct it ourselves!

this ship isnt quite as big as you think. its smaller than the ghost or decimator

I think you might be confusing it with the H-type Nubian Yacht, which Wookiepedia says is less than 50 meters long. The ship being discussed is 76 meters (according to Wookiepedia)

If the J-type Nubian is too big, the H-Type Nubian is only a little longer than a Ghost, but a lot skinnier.

I think that might actually be a solid idea for smaller Epic-type ships. Redefine double-medium as huge, call double-large "epic."
