Most cannon account for SW ship of the line weaps?

Post by RTN »

What web site can I go to that has the most cannon lists of armaments for the ISD, VSD, DREAD, MC80a, MC80B, MC90 (last is optional)?

VSD, Dreadnought, McB and 90 are all non-canon ships, so official is the only thing you'll get.

That's fine, but is there a SD.net preferred web site I can go to to get the list of armaments (how many HTL, missiles,ect) since I dont have access to any books other than the Essential Guide to Vehicles and Vessels which is back in Phoenix. Mr. Saxton has good accounts, but it doesn't list armaments all the time.

What links page?? (I'm still relatively new on this forum so I haven't found everything yet).

But thanks for the link.

The one off the main site. Go to the top pf the page. See the logo there? Click it. Then click "I want YOU for the Galactic Empire" on that page. Select LINKS from the sidebar.

Oh, cool. Found it.

It says on that link you gave me... 60 heavy turbos for an ISD. So that's official then? Just recalling that the 8 emplacements on the dorsal side of an ISD are way bigger than the ones on the port/starboard trenches and the link doesn't seem to account for those. Unless I'm missing something...

Yes, those are all the "official" RPG stats. However canon outranks them. FOr canon, see Technical Commentaries. For official, see there.

And a battery of guns is 5 barrels FYI. So going by those an ISD packs 300 MTLs

All official sources lump all TLs - regarldless of size and strength - as just turbolasers.

BTW, the ISD mkII has 100TLs.

The ISDs are judged by canonically observed HTL turrets.

The ISD II has 8 turrets with 64 barrels total.
