Speeders... [LONG]!!!

[Ray]

Just a little FYI... These are a bunch of speeders that I wrote up when really really bored... As my GM kept threatening us with the "Tea-Cup Ride" speeder in the Main Rulebook, I wrote these in responce to that, rounding out the various choices for Speeders that we can have (And steal, if neccessary).

As the folks in the Adventure Forum requested it ("Grand Theft Speeder" thread), here it is.

There has been little to no proofreading on these, and some of them have been sent to http://www.highadmiral.de/ with the rest on their way when I get bored again and proofread 'em.

However, if you want 'em for your own webpages/whatever, as long as you keep my name in it as the creator, I got no problems at all. If you make changes, yes, you can ADD your name, but I want some billing at least (Doesn't even need to be top billing).

Corellian Easyride:
A large luxury speeder, one of the largest on the market. While big and beautiful, with a ride as smooth as it's name, the Corelli is also well known for being a tough vechicle, putting a few Military Speeders to shame, and it's large size allows it to be used for methods other than looking good and driving in comfort. As well, older models of these vechicles can be found almost everywhere, and the parts are easy to find... The used models are also a popular choice for richer Biological-Being Staffed Taxi Companies.

Gervarian SpeciesMover:
Elected "The Most Ugly Speeder Considered By All Species" when it first came out, the lines of this vechicle just seemed to get uglier and uglier over the eras. They are, however, reliable, cheap, and able to keep moving despite damage and enviroment conditions. In fact, despite not being designed for it, this vechicle can take the harshest enviroment of them all, Deep Space, for a limited period of time (About fifteen minutes), however, lacking thrusters or a magnetic system to react off of, it cannot manouver. Despite being unarmed or armoured, and even being slow, it was used by some *VERY* desparate members of the Rebellion as Scout vechicles, and were a popular choice for City-Based recce missions, as noone suspected Rebel Agents in the common small speeder.

Xergo Repulsor-Truck:
The definitive work vehicle! The Xergo Truck has altered mostly in external design over the centuries of it's being built, usually following two steps behind the Technologically Engineering Curve, going for the "Old, But Reliable As A Rock!" ideal! Parts are easy to find and cheap, and there are 200-Year Old Specimens of these vehicle that they're operators have pridefully stated are "Just Barely Broken In Enough". There are three models around, the 1/4 Metric Ton, the ½ Metric Ton, and the Full Metric Ton, the only real design changes between these vehicles are the "Weight" of the repulsorcoils on the bottom of them.

Verzer Screacher:
"The TIE Fighter of Speeders!" is the motto for this vechicle, and it's fitting! This vechicle is fast, turns like it's on a Monorail, and screams out with a volume that puts some Swoops to shame!!! It's sharp, dagger-like lines also makes this Racing Speeder look as threatening as it sounds!!! A decent altitude also doesn't hurt. Now, if only the rich kids that get these had some decent driving skills...

Draven Trip:
"Ugly Box-Like Abomination That Drags Us To Death" is one of the nicer things combat
troops have called the "Trip", or Triple-Metric Ton Prime Mover built by Draven Prime-Movers.
It's simply engine, cab for two, and a cargo bed covered by a few pieces of metal and a
camouflage sheet. Used to haul everything from food to troops to ammunition to siege weapons
to port-a-potties, these vehicles have been the backbone of any military since the days of the Old
Republic! Some even have siege weapons MOUNTED on their beds, and are used as improvised
tanks!!! When they're used up for military purposes, they're usually refurbished, and sold to the
general public (If any weapons have been mounted on them, they are removed.), and are still
used even in the time of the New Republic.

Xergo Van:
"It's a Shoebox with Repulsor Coils" is how most people describe this vechicle. It's design is to allow for the transport of certain cargos without exposing them to the enviroment. They're found everywhere, and are a popular choice, after the addition of a heating unit, of hot food delivery drivers. Secret Imperial Organizations love to drive White Vans for some strange reason.

Corely FamilyVan:
Of similar design as the Xergo Van, it is changed in various ways, the most important being that it has almost as many seats as a bus. Designed for the large family (Or for a Mother that needs to transport the GravBall team), it lacks the thrust and power of the Cargo Van, but makes up for it in comfort. These vechicles were almost unheard of during the Old Republic, but have become more and more prevalent as the Empire has grown in power, and are still popular into the time of the New Republic. The seats can be folded down to allow for more space, but there is still the weight restriction... As well, most of the sides of these vechicles are transparisteel, and, as such, are not really well suited for covert-operations (At least, if you don't have a Grade School GravBall team with you...).

Corely MassHauler 3000:
The Speeder Equivalent of a Bulk Hauler, the MassHauler is pretty much the Benchmark for large Speeder Transports. Big, tough, reliable, and able to use the same electronic components as Corely Motors other vehicles! The engine compartment is also very roomy, good for after market add-ons, or for smuggling! Even a rather large-sized human can fit in there, although there is the danger of fuel fires...

Corely RoadMaster:
While not as fast, nor as manoeuvrable as a Swoop, RoadMasters are still found in Swoop Gangs for one reason and one reason only. They are, indeed, Masters Of The Road. They are big, mean, tough Speederbikes that continue to move!!! Not as fast as some, they are geared for power, and get up to their top end in less than half the time it takes faster Speederbikes. "When you're driving down the road in one of these, everyone knows what you are... That's the Master Of The Road!!!" as the Commercials say, and very few choose to show them wrong!

CSA Mealmaster
Pretty much the standard Chuckwagon in Imperial Space, and have kept up that title in the New Republic on sheer reliability and design. On it's own, the Mealmaster can produce enough hot meals for almost on hundred people once, and, with adequate support (Like a Trip full of raw food materials), can produce enough meals for 300 people three times a day. These vechicles can be found all over the place, at factories, constuction sites, and there is even an Armoured Military Model for Military and Police forces only.

Republic/Imperial Citizen:
An average, run of the mill, reliable sedan. It's not very big, flashy, or fast. It lacks altitude range, body strength, or accelleration. But they're fairly cheap, have enough room for the kids and some groceries. While the design started out with Republic Manufacturing, the line was later taken up by Imperial Speeders, who did some work on it, and produced their own version of it. Both versions can be found across the Galaxy.

Miniature Speeder:
This... Has got to be the smallest landspeeder ever made for your average (Human-Sized) Humanoid. It's *TINY*!!! Despite that, even Wookiees can find enough legroom (If the front seat is removed), and, due to it's overstrength repulsorlift coils, can take the weight of a Hutt (Which, unforetunetly, cannot fit in the vechicle.). This system allows the vechicle to turn very sharply at high speed (Which it can get to at an insane rate!), and is sometimes used by Rebel Forces as a Recon Speeder.

Corellian Gunrunner

Despite it's name, the Gunrunner is not designed for smuggling or blockade running, but, rather, is a comfortable, fast vechicle that also just happens to look good! It's maneuverability leaves a touch to be desired, but, on the straightaway, there are few Speeders that are (Legally) faster. As well, the lack of maneuverability is due to the vechicles heavy weight, which also makes it one tough mother!!!

Republic Manufacturing General Purpose Military Vechicle

Even more well known than the "Trip", the "G.P." as it is known, was originally designed 250-years before the fall of the Old Republic, by the Corellian Engeneering Corporation in an attempt to break into the Speeder market. It caught the attention of the Old Republic Senate as a method of making one standard Speeder for it's military, but were dismayed when CEC only put a very small portion of it's production capacity towards building them (Despite the *VERY* large initial order!), and invited Republic Manufacturing Engeneers to view a demonstration of the vechicle, and it's designs. The wink and the nod worked, and Republic Manufacturing came out with their own, "surprisingly" almost identical model, and the rest is history. In fact, aside from the useage of modern power plants, and the meterials of construction, this vechicle's design is practically unchanged!!!

In the field, these vechicles are pretty much used for everything! From basic scout duty, ferrying small numbers of troops, hauling ammo, and, when put up on skids, used as a generator! In fact, due to the generous power supply, the G.P.s can even mount and power up to a Medium-Repeater on a pintal mount with no problem (Dual-Light Repeaters are slightly more common, however.). While the vechicle suffers from Republic Manufacturing's usual tendancy of using "Set Parts" that had to be special ordered, almost every mechanic in the known universe knows these vechicles inside and out, and are able to make parts for almost everything (Save the Fusion Generator). The Repulsorlift field is spread out over a very broad area, making it's "footprint" very small for a vechicle it's size/weight, and also allows the vechicle to work at top speed in uneven terrain!

These vechicles are still in use by the Empire, continued on in the New Republic Era, and don't look like they'll be going away any time soon. A good number of these vechicles have gone on the Civilian Market, and one infamous HoloNet Military series had a character shipping his unit's G.P. back home, one piece at a time.

Notes: When around Repulsorlift Senseing Mines, the G.P. gains a +1D against detection (And, thus, detonation!) due to it's Light Footprint. In addition, the Difficulty for Uneven Terrain is decreased by 10, but has no effect on even terrain.

TaggeCo Repulsorlift Golf Cart And Autocaddy

Alot of buisness deals aren't made in the meeting rooms and offices, they're made on golf courses. Noone knows why, or even when this tradition started, but it's a given. And why should those successful, and rich, people walk when they can ride in comfort and style! Add in a Caddy that never needs tipping, and the ability to drive itself when the owner is too tired to drive himself after a hard game of golf, this may be the perfect recreational vechicle. Due to the commonality of water traps, these vechicles are also designed to drive over calm waters, as well as land.

TaggeCo Faggio:
A small, cheap runabout "Speederbike" that doesn't go very fast, barely has any power, and is frankly not that much to look at. But it gets you where you want to go, easy to store (And push if it breaks down), and better than walking!

Xergo OUV:
The OUV (Off-Speederway Utility Vechicle) was originally intended for wilderness enthusiasts. For some reason, however, they appeal more to inner-city upper-middle class beings. You're more likely to see these on the Speederways than off of it, despite the inefficiency of the powerplant for road driving. Armoured versions are also available, and are usually used to protect VIPs (Both legitimate and criminal), as well as for prisoner transport in the case of important witnesses.

Boy oh boy, that's a sporadic posting of stats. 2003 to 2005. Nice stats, though, Ray. I like the flavor text. That's some of the chrome that really makes things like these fun!

Keep up the good work!

[Ray]

Thanks Grimace.

If you guys wouldn't mind, if you use my stuff, tell me, would you?

[Grimace]

Not a prob. I copied and pasted the info, so I can have it handy the next time I GM a Star Wars game (which will hopefully be this year sometime).

So I'll let you know if I use any of them.

[Boomer]

I used something similar to the Trip, with a few diffrences, for a Militia. Basically a repulsorlift platform, control section, several compartments inside, and armor plating everywhere with two E-Webs for armaments, carried 20 troops.

A friend of mine will be running a game and he may want to have this for the main planet we will be stuck on.
