Strengths:
Devastating Speed- The Speed on The Rogue has been tweaked over a series of tests, cranking the vessel to max speed, taking into consideration drag and aerodynamics.
Well Rounded Arms- She has a lot of option to deploy in a dogfight. Extra space was removed in favor of magazines for the Flex Launchers Warheads
Ultrachrome Armor- Highly resilient, disperese energy based attacks across the hull as well as reflecting lasers and slughtrowers. Cut's down the need for countermeasures. Makes one hard to kill.
Self Sustaining- The fuel,Ration converter is great for keeping the crew and the Ship going on long hauls!
Weaknesses:
No Space- The majority of the space was gobbled up installing the compenants of the ship. With living quarters cramped, and space taken the smuggling hatches hold the most space. The crew count is considerably lower, as well as cargo hold area and passenger count almost nil.
Weak Shielding- One reactor was slaved alone to run the Hyperspace Package and the multiple thrust systems. Due to this constraint the second reactor has to handle weapons and shields. Unfortunately firing weapons takes all power, leaving minimum shielding. Vice Versa for powering shields
Engine Flux- Massive powerdraw is required for the Engine system. To use the Hyperdrive engines have to cease completely. Vice versa for the Engines. this makes the Ship vulnerable when trying to escape.
Description:
The Rogue is Jacks masterwork craft. Having sank nearly all his fortune into her as well as taking loans out from various sources, he made her everything he wanted her to be. The L-Harcs were installed as well as the Custom Weapons systems. To do this he had to expand her hull and cut out nearly all Cargo space. Most cargo is stored in the Smuggler hatches.
The crew compliment was cut down as well to accommodate the systems sheer mass.
After a few runs around the Dune Sea and the Roche Asteroid Fields Jack tweaked her engine, reinforcing what was there, changing calibrations, removing failsafes and installing aftermarket Ion Jets for manuever superiority.
Then he found his cherished armor. Ultrachrome. That was a tipping point for the vessel, giving it an edge not only in speed but in armor as well.
The hull was also reinforced by a spider-web network of Qudanium beams, giving her further staying power against Kinetic hits. In short she's a Legendary ship!

Intent: To create a Legendary Ship that Jack can use in his day to day life. Also to offer up one day as a reward for a far- far distant treasure hunt.
Who Can Use This: Jack or anyone he lends it to.
