STRENGTHS
  • Stealth/escape: Designed for undetected travel and the ability to avoid combat when possible, this design’s primary strength is its stealth capabilities and having the speed and systems to escape from danger.
  • Weapon-tuning: The cannons of the XJ7-Stealth are tuned to deal incredible amounts of damage in short bursts.
  • Short-duration combat: With its maneuverability, speed, and heavy armaments, the XJ7-Stealth is very combat-capable, but only for short durations. Its weaker shielding and lack of carrying capacity for missiles/torpedoes make sustained combat a weakness. In short fights, however, it’s quite a powerful ship.
WEAKNESSES
  • Limited production: The ship is uniquely designed to fit Valery’s needs, and will not be used/produced in large numbers. It’s not a ship that will be widely used to shift the tides of space battles.
  • System balancing: To make space for stealth systems, the shields of the XJ7-Stealth were downgraded, and one torpedo launcher was removed. Furthermore, the space for an astromech droid has been sacrificed as well, to allow slightly better armaments through the cluster missiles.
  • Overheating: With the cannons tuned to deal great damage in short bursts, they will overheat quickly from sustained fire.
  • Sustained combat: While heavily armed, carrying capacity for missiles and torpedoes is limited, causing the ship to run out of heavy weaponry fast. Its weaker shielding will not last in longer engagements either, and the cannons overheat too fast for prolonged fighting.
  • Jedi piloting: With the Jedi Shadow bombs and the cannons tuned the way they are, every shot counts, and only a Jedi or Force-sensitive can truly benefit from it all.
  • In-combat stealth: The moment torpedoes or missiles are fired, the stealth from sensors is no longer functional at all. Visually, it will remain hard to detect due to its paint job.
DESCRIPTION
Valery Noble is a Jedi Master from the Old Republic era who was recovered from stasis a great amount of time later. After recovery, her goal has shifted to traveling through the Galaxy in search of knowledge and experience that she can use to establish an Enclave similar to the one she had once been the leader of.

For these travels into (for her) unknown territory, she’s wanting a ship with excellent stealth capabilities, not for combat purposes but simply to avoid unnecessary trouble along the way. For this reason, stealth systems are added, and most advanced systems tie into escape and avoiding detection.

Additionally, the specifications of the XJ7-Stealth are made to be highly capable of self-defense. Should she run into trouble, these specifics allow her to hit the aggressor hard before making her escape.

The ship is not designed to be taken into space battles, since it’s only capable of defending itself for short amounts of time. So she will not be using it with the intent of going into combat, but simply for when she wishes to safely travel.

(Side-note: Using the balancing tool, I kept it intentionally at “a little underpowered” due to the stealth factor of the ship. I hope this, alongside the other weaknesses, is sufficient).
