STRENGTHS
  • Stealth: The ship is designed to not be seen. While not true stealth, as it can still be seen visually, almost every device onboard helps it to avoid detection by even the most advanced sensors. It’s small size helps a lot too.
  • Speed and Agility: There are few ships in the galaxy that can compare to the Ghost in realspace speed and maneuverability. Powerful engines, and maneuvering thrusters on almost every part of the vehicle give it the ability to move in almost any direction or way imaginable. It is equally effective in space, atmosphere and ground.
  • Shield Dissipating: The Ghost can slip through most forms of deflector shields, to engage the ship directly. Even its main gun, the heavy plasma cannon is able to pass through most conventional forms of shielding.
  • Wheels: The Ship, like an X-wing, is able to change the location of its "wings". In this case, they are able to move under the vehicle. When combined with its tractor beam, allows the ship to literally touch down and run across the hull of a ship to avoid laser fire. Or to touch down on ground and run along that as well. The wheels are shielded like the rest, but the ray shields poke out a bit more than the particle shields, allowing it to roll along, but also so they can be used as make shift weapons if need be.
  • Droid: There is a built in droid brain. It is quite capable of running every aspect of the ship on its own, even able to dog fight when needed.
  • Hull Cutter: It is equipped with a variety of tools, that allow it to be able to breach almost any type of hull/building, and gain access.
WEAKNESSES
  • Stealth Only at Lower Speeds: The stealth systems are designed only to hide the vehicle itself, and not the rider. And only at moderate speeds. If the Ghost moves at its top speed, it isn’t hidden anymore. At no point is the Ghost fully cloaked, it's just harder to spot than most.
  • No Life Support: It doesn’t have access to any dedicated life support system. Like a Tie-Fighter, It is bound by whatever limitations the wearers environmental suit has.
  • No Hyperdrive: It is not designed with hyperspace travel in mind, and as such was built without one at all.
  • Explosive Reactor: While armored, if the reactor is breached, it could cause a catastrophic explosion.
  • Open Cockpit: Beyond the shield generators, the pilot is completely exposed.
  • Droid: The droid will never be able to outmatch a skilled and experienced biological pilot.
DESCRIPTION

At the core of the fighter, is a droid ship able to operate effective in space, atmosphere, and on land. It can be made more effective with a biological pilot. It was made in the shape of a motorcycle for aesthetic reasons. The ship was filled to the brim with micronized stealth options. While it lacked a TRUE stealth system like stygian crystals, its various components made it difficult to spot, especially at range.

It was given powerful engines, and many types of micro-thrusters and maneuvering jets that gave it speed, and agility in spades. It was able to turn on any axis on a dime, and this gave it unparalleled maneuverability.

The weapons were uniquely chosen. Three light laser cannons were the base, while they didn’t provide a lot of stopping power, they did provide a good volume of deadly laser fire and were especially good as anti-personnel weapons. One of them was on the back of the Ghost to pick off incoming missiles.

It’s main gun was a heavy plasma cannon of Qekoth Confederation design. It was able to bypass conventional shielding and strike the hull directly. This made it a very good weapon against other fighters, or light freighters. It had a wide range of hull breaching equipment as well, allowing it to cut into buildings and ships.

Like X-wings and other craft, it had movable wheels. In this case, it allowed them to move from the stabilizing side position, to rotate under the vessel, which, when paired with its downward direction tractor beam, allowed the vehicle to pull itself to a vessels surface and roll across it at speeds, if the terrain allowed. It helped it to avoid laser fire. It also allowed it to travel along the ground on planets.

Okay, I had to take a day to think this over and talk over it with the Factory Team on what this submission is.

I have two large issues with it and the first is that for something allowed to go into space, there is no way to cover yourself. Not only that, you can slip through deflector shields, have lightsaber spinning tires can be invisible even though nothing covers the actual operator.

Second is that...well, this is not in the style of Star Wars. I have seen vehicles that can work kindof like this but to go into space and have all of these styles, to have lightsaber like wheels with also able to break into ships to cause more damage on the inside...it just....is not Star Wars. It has a Bladerunner feel but it seems like something from Robotech instead of Star Wars.

For those two reasons...I am denying the submission. You can ask for a second chance through the submission modification but this is my judgement on it.

DENIED.
