Strengths:

• Heavy Weaponry: The ship has two turbolasers and even more laser cannons, making it a formidable opponent against ships of the same-size and possibly even corvettes given enough luck and the right timing.
• Strong Shielding: Coinciding with the strong armament is the vessels advanced shielding, strong enough to take several direct turbolaser blasts before failing.

Weaknesses:

• Lumbering: Unfortunately, with all of the weapons and technology, the maneuverability and speed has taken a hit. nimble interceptors can easily avoid the weapons long enough to do some real damage.
• Weak Armor: To make space for cargo and miscellaneous technology such as the hyperdrive and the power sources of the weapons, the armor on this ship isn't as strong, necessitating the strong shields.

Description: Manufactured by Corellian Engineering Corporation, the YV-929 armed freighter was designed to be a nasty surprise to any pirates and guerrilla fighters; carrying powerful weapons as well as very strong shielding earning it the affectionate name of 'flying brick' by many spacers who had seen the vessel in action. Even centuries after the ships creation, it still remains a reliable ship for smugglers and merchants alike wishing to safely carry their cargo across the galaxy without fear of pirates attacking and stealing it.

The Mandalorian-turned-mercenary Jagen Wren acquired one of these ships and made a few key modifications to make it unique to himself; Such as adding twin laser cannon turrets on the top and bottom of the ship while halving the concussion missile launcher count. He also tuned the hyperdrive from its original factory 2.0 to a much faster 1.5 hyperdrive class. Applying a fresh coat of flashy paint and slapping on the name 'Mando'ade Sentinel', the man was ready to take this ship on any job ranging from the usual escort to racing past the stars in a galaxy-spanning bounty hunt.

Hello, I'll be the factory judge reviewing your submission. If you have questions, please feel free to respond to this thread once we are underway.

[member="Jagen Wren"] - I noticed you listed a former ship as salvaged, but unless I missed something, there was no Restricted Materials in it's development. Thus, under the salvage rules, no development will be credited.

I won't go through and check this too deeply for balance as I want to give you the chance to react to the above information and make any independent adjustments you might have before I assess it. Please tag me when that has been done.

[member="Jagen Wren"] - I have found your edits. There is a problem ongoing with this account where I am not receiving notifications. I just wanted you to know I will be having a response to you in 24 hours or less with any further edits or judgement,

[member="Jagen Wren"] -

• The weakness of slow & lumbering does not fit the numbers assigned, so we'll need to adjust that. Make it around a 6 on both to work better with that.
• Your armaments needs addressed. I am not really content to let you get much more than canon. Used that as a guide, and tone down the armament to match, roughly.
• Lets also try and be a bit more realistic (heavy turbolasers are almost the size of this ship, imagine the power drain!) and go with light turbolasers, again as the canon example shows.

Tag me with any questions or edits made. I will be manually checking this thread so you are not kept waiting so long as the last round of edits.

Edited Speed and Maneuverability to 6, switched heavy turbolasers to light variants.

 

[Julius Sedaire]

[member="Jagen Wren"] - Had the wrong armament in mind when I looked at this. Apologies. Barring anyone upstairs having problems with this, you're good on my end given the canon precedent.

Awesome. Pending Admin Approval. Thanks! [member="Cira"]
