Star Wars Galaxies is pleased to announce the first veteran reward for longtime players! Veteran players are those players who have subscribed for at least 6 consecutive months. These players will receive the deed for the multi-passenger ship model SoroSuub Personal Luxury Yacht 3000 the day Star Wars Galaxies: Jump to Lightspeed launches. This starship model has been popularized in Star Wars fiction by Lando Calrissian's personal vessel, the Lady Luck. Non-veteran players will receive the reward once they become veteran players. Similar to the Special Edition goggles, this item will not be tradable.

"Her name says all you need to know. The Lady Luck's fickle, but when she's smiling down on you, you're bound to win. She hasn't given up on me yet." - Lando Calrissian

Hmm.. 6 consecutive months.. BEH!

I started playing back in July of 2003 to October, took some time off and re-registered in May of this year. if JTL comes out at the end of October and I get stiffed, I am going to be pissed...

I wonder if they will be tradeable to "non-veterans". If so there are many people who say that won't be using theirs. Maybe you could nab it off of them.

Maybe even RP it as a MERCS hijacking mission a la' Gallandro taking the Quamar Messenger singlehanded. (see SW Databank/Characters/Gallandro or read Han Solo and The Lost Legacy :mrgreen: )

They have also said that the S-3000 Yacht will be totally invulnerable. No offensive capability either, but un-damageable as well.

Hmmm, exploit possibility? Get a group together and surround yourself with 4-6 of these babies on tough missions? They suck up enemy fire while you in your mission ship accomplish the mission, run the gauntlet, etc.

(JtL NDA safe. Just an idea I had from what's already in the open.)

If thats true about the S-3000 then I'll be pleased because I only want to use it for RP purposes, holding small events in space. It would be a pain getting shot at while you're trying to RP on the ship.

But if this turns out to cause exploits then thats going to be bad. I don't know about them soaking up fire, sure you may be able to use them for cover but its possible shots will just pass through it (come on this is SWG). Plus with targetting I don't think they'll be hard to get around. But I'm not saying Keer's wrong, I'd just like to see what happens.
