Description: The venerable two-decker Neimoidian Yacht saw service in the hands of many a Neimoidian private owner, as well as in commuter spacelines around Silver Jedi space. With the replacement of the hull from alusteel to songsteel, gains of speed and hull integrity have been made, but due to the central placement of the engines, no gains in maneuverability have been made. In addition, to defend itself, the Elite Neimoidian Yacht has its suite of weapons replaced from one quad-laser to two Anoat electromagnetic turrets, and, with the space and weight gains made with the replacement from alusteel to songsteel, the yacht is now able to fit in a Guernica bomb bay, enabling it to fire heavier missiles in a fight. Despite the addition of a Guernica bomb bay, it's still, at its core, a civilian yacht, capable of serving as a workhorse to the more specialized spacer or as a personal transport for VIPs.

Sorry for the slow reply but better late than never. After looking over this vessel for a couple days, I only have one issue : Not enough weaknesses. I only say this because having no windows is not a weakness. A number of vessels can use sensors and screens to maneuver. As I passenger, I don't have to look outside.


Give me a real weakness and we're good to go.

[member="Delila Castillon"] Would low shield strength work?
