>>6135164>Not exactly relevant to Star Wars, but I think we might find some use out of this Max Payne meme.>Payne truly does live in it, don't he?>Yeah, well he'd have a pal in Larid if he was in the SW universe...>Oh damn, this gives me an idea!>2 hours laterI don't care if this looks like shit at this point, it feels like a masterpiece to me.
>The top one is the Gonbay-class deep space asteroid cracker. The purpose of its many engines is to wiggle and extricate itself from tight spaces and sift through asteroid belts with some amount of agility despite its size. Full spectrum sensors facilitate its ore hunting. It's also colloquially known as the Gulper-class. The fact that it looks like a fish is genuinely coincidental.Y'know, we really should ask the Mercantors if we could take the blueprints for the Trident-class driller to Pip. If we put tractor beams onto the landing tips of the ship and replate the armor to something that could resist thermal plasma weaponry, we could have something that could actually hunt the coral ships. Hell, could even make an asteroid mining based version that removes the thermal armor to work the belts at a lower cost than the militarized version.
>The bottom one is the Sixrail cargo shuttle. Built to ferry prepackaged bundles and containers from ships to stations or orbit to surface. It is certainly not a ploy to get around Republic and Imperial restrictions on armed spacecraft despite the staggering amount of potential mounting points for weapons, as it is delivered without weaponry.Twice as many modular bays as the Wayfarer-class means twice as many MOABs to drop onto Imperials!
Also reminds me of another Traveller ship called the External Cargo Trader, that was described in the Mongoose 1st ed splat Scoundrel as "A spider sitting on a brick".
Oh and to answer the question of "Which Providence" over here

>If anyone was wondering, the silly saucer I mocked up, I couldn't settle on whether I wanted to call it the "Occluder" or "Halo" class. I don't do good with names.Well, it's shaped like a lens, so you could also try the Convergent-class, with it's nickname being the Pana-series, named after a cod-sized flat circular oceanic fish from Sertain's seas in universe (good eating too, tastes a bit like trout), and in our universe referring to the Panavision Series-C camera lens, the lenses used to shoot A New Hope.
