Hello, everyone. I decided to do something for fun with Spaceships: statting out Imperial Starfighters. Be warned that I'm a novice and all are welcome to critique the stats that I've put out for starfighters affiliated with the Galactic Empire. I'll be trying my best to stat out fighters so don't expect it to be canonical. If you wish to correct specific parts of my statblocks on any starfighters, do let me know.

I did say I would write up the Alpha Xg-1 Assault Gunboat... I present to you in this thread the first statblock of many to come soon:

Created using the GURPS Spaceship Design Spreadsheet Version 2.0 Release Candidate 10 based on the GURPS Spaceships series of books. http://gurpsland.no-ip.org/#GURPSSpa...ignSpreadsheet

NOTES

Do note that for ammunition in the Gunboat we're referring to XvT: BoP. Assault Gunboats are known to carry any type of warheads; the maximum number of warheads are 12, either solo or twin-linked. The missile launchers are 2 racks; 6 missiles per rack. 1st Major Weapons is Laser Cannon; 2nd Major Weapons is Ion Cannon (designed to disable craft). I don't know how to configure this but if you have any suggestions as to how to change the damage to something where the craft is disabled instead of being destroyed, I'm all ears.

Compact Super Fusion Reactors were put there to increase PP so the pilot could change PP to adjust his Light Force Screen partially or fully frontal or aft. Also, the weapons on the mount could be switched at any time, including the missile launchers.

The Xg-1 is hyperdrive capable. It can make at least 4 jumps, according to the GURPS Imperial Sourcebook. As for the low-thrust or high-thrust, not sure how I'd do that on the spreadsheet.
