@@andrewcody2181 yes please a video on mandalorian production design and history is probably enough for a couple of videos.

[@DarthArachnious]

The Scimitar was designed by Rugess Nome (Darth Tenebrous). Who was a famous master starship designer. Then it was built under direct supervision of master shipwright Raith Sienar. The ships technology was so advanced that even thirty years later. It was one of Sidious's prized assets for hunting and killing elusive targets.

[@drewf41]

What happened to it after Ep1?

[@rookiedrifter4273]

@@drewf41 For the one we see in Episode 1, I don't think we ever get an answer on that. My headcanon/thought was that maybe we'd see that in that cancelled Darth Maul game. Dooku had one, so maybe he got it. I think some comic showed that Palpatine had his own with a unique design, but we just see it in like one panel chilling in a hangar.

[@FastTquick]

I’m pretty sure the reason the Carrion Spike and Darth Maul’s Scimitar are so expensive has something to do with the ships Stygian-based cloaking systems. Stygian crystals were extremely rare even during the Clone Wars era and Aeten II was the only known source of them.

[@klauswohlert3749]

In the Star Wars RPG the Crystal alone cost 150.000.000 Cr.

[@Euripides_Panz]

@@klauswohlert3749 Which is 3 times the cost of a Victory or Venator.

[@dblevins343]

Interesting fact about the Raider that I'm not sure if you know... When you said "The Raider was also a direct competitor to the famous CR90" IDK if you knew how accurate thar actually is. For those who may not know the Raider was designed specifically to combat the CR90 in in the X-Wing miniatures game roughly 8ish years ago. FFG reached out to Lucas Film at the time asking if there were any ships roughly the size of a CR90 that looked anything like a Star Destroyer so they could add it to their game. LF responded with a no which then caused FFG to ask if they could design one because they needed a ship to go toe to toe with the CR90 which was already in the game. Since this was LF pre-disney, LF agreed. On top of that LF even proceeded to help FFG design the ship to fit into Star Wars and make the ship canon. When it was finished it was introduced to the game of X-Wing and is still to this day the most powerful huge ship in the game. However, the story continues from here. When Dice started making BF2 they too wanted a ship close to this size to act as a home base for Inferno Squadron. This is when they found the Raider in the X-Wing Miniature game and they fell in love with it. Thus, they took the ship and added it into the game throwing it into a spotlight with a much wider audience. As a huge fan of the X-Wing miniatures game I love the story of the Raider. The fact that something that originated from a Star Wars miniature game has become this popular is awesome.

[@childishisnotachild7277]

5:40 the Republic Cruiser is by far the most the impressive ship. it shows great agility for the ship it's size, something that we haven't see the CR90 Corvette do. In the clone wars it was agile enough to invade turret's fire from bigger ships.

[@permafrostinsanity1799]

I like to think that the X-70B Phantom prototype, should be among the list as one of the most expensive ships. When the empire built the Phantom, they made sure to spare no expense, in its development. Through the decades of research and studies, this ship was the cutting edge of technology. Fitted with the latest stealth systems/coating (could be modified with a cloaking device), she was very sleek and low profile. The Phantom was so far ahead of its time, that mass production was never possible. Just maintaining this ship was extraordinary difficult. The parts alone was extremely difficult to manufacture, due to the high expense and hard to find materials. The very few Phantoms that we built, were designated for critical intelligence missions only. Not much is known about its cost, but chances are, she would run into the tens of millions.

[@miqvPL]

Scimitar was basically a prototype with every bit of tech on board being of the highest quality possible and often custom made. If it was mass produced the price would most likely drop 10 times if not more

[@JettQuasar]

If you're going to cruise the Galaxy, it should be in a super star yacht!

[@miqvPL]

I believe the reason why so many people in SW universe travel in modified freighters is because it doesnt grab pirate/thief attention that much. This universe seem so dangerous that owners of fancy stuff are robbed unless they have good security

[@scoutman66]

[@gregorylieber8362]

@@scoutman66 fair call. I'm not sure the empire has ever had a frigate that wasnt. There's the Gozanti but that's basically a space box truck. Maybe the Arquitens but even that is like a miniature jedi cruiser

[@scoutman66]

@@gregorylieber8362 The Gozanti was still widely used after the fall of the Empire because it had many good qualities that you're looking for in a freighter or a multi purpose ship. The Imperial Light Cruiser is a bigger version of its clone wars counterpart and can carry quite a bit of personnel and cargo while having considerable firepower

[@thevgmlover]

@@scoutman66 So a space box truck with an M60 attached to it?

[@gregorylieber8362]

@@scoutman66 Indeed, perhaps 'box truck' is too harsh but it is more transport than fire support. I can't think of another common support ship that isn't pizza shaped tho. Canon reason: Tarkin doctrine? (Big ships and cheap fighters, no in between) Real world: easier to put a new coat of paint on a classic than to be Ralph McQuarrie.. or even Doug Chiang

[@Matthew-li7we]

My dream Star Wars ship, as a kid, was the Errant Venture. Imperial Class Star Destroyers are the COOLEST ships! Especially the Mark IIs, although I would gladly give up half my ion cannon batteries for more anti starfighter protection. As a private ship it should have been included in this list of "Yachts"

[@enviousgaming3250]

I always loved the design of the scimitar!! It's one of my favorite ship designs ever

[@GuukanKitsune]

The thing to ALWAYS remember about Theed Royal Palace Engineering Corps ships, whether talking about the N-1 Starfighter or the Diplomatic Cruiser, is that Theed Palace is never purchasing them. Theed Palace builds them. Theed Palace never pays for anything more than the raw materials and the daily salaries of the engineers involved in the construction, as production happens in-house entirely from start to finish. Theed Palace also did not intend them for mass market sale. They are custom-designed for Theed Palace's use. This means quality was the exclusive word of the day and niether money nor affordability were factors of consideration in the slightest. Which is why they are so grandly expensive: the only thing Theed Palace pays for is the raw material and the workers, meaning that 2mil credit top of the line Star Yacht probably only cost TPEC a quarter that at most, and they can be as high-quality expensive as Theed Palace wants because Theed only pays the raw materials and workers and nothing more. The price tag is for OFFWORLDERS wanting to commission one, as they then have to pay for every level of production for every part in a way TPEC doesn't. But you really do get what you pay for.

[@spicytriangle4656]

I love these videos based on affordability of starships. I have just gotten into the edge of the empire table top and this series has really helped me with figuring out fair pricing especially with second hand stuff. Absolutely fantastic content mate, would love to see a video on starship modifications if you are open to suggestions. Especially the hyperspace rings I can't seem to find pricing on those anywhere. Again cheers for the fantastic content mate

[@_gungrave_6802]

You know its a shame the Scimitar aka "Sith Infiltrator" is just rotting away in a hangar because after the prequels Palpatine took the ship and stored it away somewhere. Thats literally where the lore history for the ship ends which makes me wish that it would show back up since its a really cool ship design. Hell just imagine if it was actually the ship chosen to be mando's ship instead of the N1.

[@VD913]

I tried building an obscure ship called the WR-542 Shooting Star using the old D20 ttrpg starship construction rules. Smaller than the Millenium Falcon, costs as much as a Raider-class. Sienar really packed this thing to the gills.

[@AzraelThanatos]

Another one from the older rpg stuff is the Arakyd Helix...aka, the ship that's smaller than the Falcon and tends to scare the crap out of Star Destroyers with it's weapon loadout...the ones with the basic loadout got it banned by the empire, and even with the stripped down "legal" version, the Empire would call for backup and start shooting at the first sign of anything. And then there were a few that got fitted with cloaking devices, because, of course someone had that idea.

[@djsharky3822]

@@AdmiralStoicRum Most do have substantial maintenance costs. At 150m, they routinely had maintenance droids running pretty much 100 percent of the time. Larger frigates had hundreds, even thousands keeping things running, performing repairs and adjustments. One interesting aspect of the old game Rebellion was keeping a large amount of refined resources to support specific costs for every unit you chose to build. This cost rose sharply as you expand and build a fighting force. Some units had a maintenance cost higher than their build cost. The Lancer frigate, for example had a build commitment half the maintenance expense.
