DESCRIPTION
With Wookiees finding themselves popular targets for slavers, an arms race began between the Trandoshan mercenaries and their would-be Wookiee captives. Given the relative distance between Wookiee settlements and the tendency of slavers to operate in small groups, the need arose for a rapid response gunship capable of quickly deploying warriors to fight against the slavers. Out of that need, the Auzituck gunship was born. Auzituck roughly translates to "liberated one" in Shyriiwook, the native language of the Wookiees. The gunship was fast, well-armored and heavily armed with a narrow profile and large engines. It had a dual-tiered, bubble-shaped canopy that housed the pilot in the upper, rear section with the copilot/gunner in the lower forward position. The interiors were made from wroshyr trees, with sap serving as glue. With the conflict with the Sith Empire continuing, these gunships have been pressed into service as a troop carrier/support craft on the battlefield.LEGALITY
Legal. Found almost exclusively on Kashyyyk, the Auzituck gunship is slowly being integrated amongst FWA worlds as the planet ramps up its production of them in wartime.INTENT
Bring a canon ship to the site, and provide a small troop carrier/gunship for the FWA.RESTRICTIONS
Available primarily to the FWA, it is encouraged (but not required) to obtain them through RP if outside the faction.
