[Skarr]

we got sectors:
naboo
corellian
Tatoo

also on the Ships page, although there are no details, there are spots for 15 different ships, with the only ones announced:
X-Wing, Y-Wing, TIE Fighter, Z-95, Light Hutt Figher and the YT-1300 transport


so the others could/should be:
a-wing
b-wing-although I thought those didn't come out until later
tie interceptor
the Lady Luck for veteren 1 year players

what else?



EDIT: here's the best news off of the professions tab:
Jump to Lightspeed features three unique piloting professions which are outside of the regular Star Wars Galaxies skill points. You must go on story-driven missions to advance within them. A fourth new profession, the Shipwright comes off of the artisan profession

some good tidbits:

Aboard a multipassenger starship, player responsibilities are divided in some pretty cool ways. We are actively building these features right now, so I can't give out details just yet.... However, I really look forward to surprising players with what sorts of things go on aboard a YT-1300 in the heat of battle!

As you ascend your chosen pilot profession tree, you will earn starship combat experience. Each skill in each tree requires this XP type. Then once you are a master of your pilot profession, you will start earning "prestige points"--which are used to gain access to special high-end content.

and the BEST for last:

GS: What plans are in place for player-versus-player space battles? Will player-versus-player or player-versus-environment battles occur in open space, or will there be instanced arenas?

CB: All manner of space combat will be taking place in open space. We support player-versus-player combat in a similar fashion to the Galaxies' ground combat system. Players who have declared "overt" status as either Rebel or Imperial are allowed to do battle with one another freely.


NO GETTING RAPED FOR NO REASON, CAMPING, KIDDIE BULLSHIT!!!!!

That brings us to 10 ships, so there's at least the tie-advanced and the tie-bomber, which leaves room for 3 more Hutt Ships.

Also, the 3 piloting trees aren't really 3. It's more like one, with faction allegiance, so one for rebs, one for imps, and one for what I had hoped was Underworld, but in your next post, the quote for "Overt" is only for Imps and Rebs, so it seems that Underworld is going to get el shafto again, and it will just be an "undeclared" tree?

I though the lady luck was for 6 month people, not for year people. Did i miss something?

[Seret Sajet]

You're right Oeree, its for those with consecutive 6-month players.
