Ok I noticed this in the Ship Repair thread, and I've heard it mentioned in other threads.
Where does it mention that you can use CP as credit? _________________ "I take orders from just one person: Me!"

I believe they're referring to first edition rules. I think before 2nd edition came out you spent Character Points when you upgraded stuff. _________________ Arek | Kage |

Bah, if you want to upgrade, spend cash. Personally I don't see how spending cps can easily be explained for the modification of a ship. _________________ "I take orders from just one person: Me!"

The only way possible would be to equate it to spending CPs to upgrade a droid, I would think. Even so, the cost would have to be pretty steep. |

i thought that they were referencing the fan-made starship_pricing_guid.pdf
where it gives you creation points for buying starship attributes and then the "CPs" equate to cash in the last step. but i may be wrong. |

I think I remember reading that some where about spending cps for ship upgrades, never even considered using it.
If you want upgrades then spend CREDITS! |

Yeah, I didn't think it made a good idea, just was assuming that's what they were talking about. _________________ Arek | Kage |

CPs in that thread were referring to Construction Points, not Character Points. There has never, to my knoweldge, been talk of using Character Points to upgrade a starship.
Construction Points were originally created for use in the Starships of the Galaxy book by WOTC. |

Ah, okay. That makes a great deal more sense. I've only played 2nd edition, hence the confusion. _________________ Arek | Kage |

I believe that in the 1st edition you could/had to spend character points to upgrade stuff! But I could be wrong, especially since I haven't played by the 1st edition rules in a long long time! 2nd edition all the way!
Yep the 1st edition has you spending skill points to improve ships/equipment/whatever!!!! I had to look it up... how strange, I'm glade WEG dropped that in the 2nd edition. _________________ "Well hello Mister Fancypants.
