DESCRIPTION​

For rapid transport of cargo across the surfaces of reasonably flat worlds, there is nothing better than slapping a rocket engine onto a long train of 18 hover-carriages. In a nutshell, that is literally what this is - a rocket engine pulling hovering cargo pods. Connected by simply mag-link connectors, this 'train' is manufactured by Ubbrikian Industries, famed for making hover-tech.

It has no advanced gear on it, apart from a navicomputer, which normally requires a piloting droid with about 30 arms to effectively use. Unarmed, its main defences come in the fact that it moves quickly, and is has slots across the side of each carriage that, if one was so inclined, you could shoot a blaster rifle out of.

Not very accurately, because you'd be shooting it through the slot of a fast-moving train, but that's your problem.

Mostly seen on outer rim worlds, these trains are used to move cargo on the cheap because guess what - you don't need to pay hanger fees. What a bargain. They are cheap to buy, cheap to run, and, on worlds like Tatooine, pretty good at scaring the wits out of local tusken tribes.

LEGALITY​

Legal, depending on what's being carried in it.

INTENT​

To bring the most amazing vehicle in star wars over to the forum.
