So far as I can tell, here's the list of non-unique Republic (or plausibly available) Jedi-affiliated ships.
Fighters:
J1-Class Interceptor
Jedi-Class Heavy Starfighter
XJ7 StealthX - (I've been informed that after Incom and the Republic parted ways, the Republic returned all the StealthX's it...

So I just found a thing where a guy dug up an official list of suggested prices for all things shipowner, out of Galaxy Guide 6. As with everything credit-related, take this with a grain of salt, and much of it's tweaked for RPG use. I'm especially dubious about the CGT price. But overall, this...

Disclaimer: I am not speaking ex cathedra or as a Factory Judge. I dislike it when judges set up their personal standards as infallible doctrine. Consider this some unofficial advice based on a very long career of creating and judging Factory submissions.
Q: How long should a post be? What...
This is not about Chaos; I'm actively trying to avoid even thinking about Chaos. This is drawing from whole other sets of experience.
We've all dabbled in play-by-post (PbP) forum RP off Chaos, in this setting or that. Elder Scrolls, Mass Effect, Game of Thrones, Star Trek, Narnia, Lord of the...

Hey, folks. Just dropping in to say hello. I've been working the night shift with a punishing commute, and haven't had much writing time of any kind in weeks. The new baby is also demanding of time, and the toddler doesn't appreciate me working nights, so there's that. Miss you guys, but no...
Wookieepedia has its limits. Fairly often, when reading Star Wars books, I find significant details and precedents that don't make it onto Wook. I've tried editing them in, with moderate success, but Wook's editor culture is...not welcoming of outsiders. So rather than haggle with derps, I've...
[font=Arial][background=I've stumbled across a translation of a translation of a translation in Rave's notes, along with her annotations. If any of this is accurate, it's groundbreaking - about [/font][font=Arial][background=twenty-seven thousand years old[/font][font=Arial][background=, if I'm...
So I heard the Republic's thinking of invading Coruscant. With apologies to Alfred, Lord Tennyson, and I suppose to the Republic:
Half a hex, half a hex, half a hex onward,
All in the valley of Death
Rode the Republic
"Forward, the Pub Brigade!
"Charge for the Sith!" he said:
Into the valley of...
The following is not official, but is a pretty solid reflection of how Factory Judges and canon approach starship gun/sensor ranges.
SHORT: Starfighter weapons. Capital ship defensive weapons.
STANDARD: Normal capital ship weapons - turbolasers, etc.
LONG: Special weapons - long-range...
I found another piece of interest in Rave's notes. It's half a story, but there's enough verifiable truth in here to take it seriously.
It seems that before the Clone Wars, there was a painter on Naboo who could see visions of the future. He didn't know that's what it was. He spent the bulk of...
This is my considered opinion now, and as far as I can recall, it was my opinion all the other times too. It's from Grosse Pointe Blank, one of my favorite films - a tender love story about a hitman and a high school reunion. I believe it to be the essence of wisdom.
[background=My sister’s notes can get ugly sometimes. She left reams of material behind, much of it from the half-century she spent as a Nightsister and a Sith Lord. In those notes, I don’t always see the woman and girl I knew. [/size]
[background=Rave and I both had trouble tracking down a...
Here's where it gets grim.
I thought I knew Sith, but this chunk of Rave's notes has details that I've never seen anywhere. It's an annotated account that claims to be about five millennia old. It's the sort of thing I'm going to keep locked up in a serious way. If even half of it is real, this...
