Yeah that sounds good. It'll be much further down the line before super weapons start appearing though obviously. 

And to Innese, yes there will be. In fact, just shortly after the RP starts we'll start opening up upgrades to avoid a feeling of hard counters.

AND LASTLY. Well, for this post. Anyways since this is alternate universe, feel free to use designs from outside of Star Wars. For the start we won't go too overboard. Don't be pulling in Star Trek things or others like that. But for an example, my Jedi's personal ship will be the Retaliator from Star Citizen. Later on when we reach the super weapons stage we may open it up to more complex designs. Star Wars doesn't have enough mechs. Needs more mechs. xD
