Jabba's Star Jewel Confirmed?

By RuusMarev, in X-Wing

Sure looks like a Minstral class yacht. The question is, is this a teaser for X-Wing (the Minstral class is a corvette sized huge ship that has some pretty hefty firepower for being a "yacht" iirc, a hangar bay as well which makes me slightly giddy), an Outer Rim expansion, FFG trolling, or just there because it looks nice (the artist did a really good job capturing its look)?

I think it confirms that Buck Rogers is the next pilot/crew card and the Extra Lunch Boxes modification is going to see way more use than Spare Parts Canisters.

It doesn't have the pointy-down nose of a minstrel.

It looks rather more like a Twilight Imperium dreadnought (top left), if you ask me, right down to the notched rectangular engines over the wings.

This seems more likely to me as well. It still doesn't seem quite right, though. I couldn't find a definitive image of the bottom of a dreadnought from TI3 (that's what you have pictured, right?)

Could be.
