[3e, SW] Landspeeders

[Phaelen Bleux]

Many thanks to David Johnston 2 for pointing out to me that there is a difference between repulsorlift and contragrav. Said technology is described for 3e on the Vehicles Expansion 2 book, so these designs should be fully legit.

No problem.

My gaming group is AWOL for the next month, so I'm willing to take special orders :)

Sweet. Your loss is my gain. Let me think about what I could actually use in a game...
