	The Pulsar Skate depicted in the Rogue Squadron comics heavily contradicts the Rogue Squadron books' description of a twin-engined rear on triangular down-sloped wings. If Michael was consulting with the art team, as I've been told, how did this happen? What is now the official shape? Technically, the skate is an aquatic mantalike creature like the book version. -----signature----- Rock-a-by baby, on the treetop, Beaming with pride, the filth they hold, But when the wind blows, my temper implodes, High above a pit, filled with sharkticons, Down will come hardcover addicts, beaming no more. ©

I know them and love them thx, but if any fanon deckplans of the rest exist let me know^^ btw: the skate is a modified baudo, maybe there are several different styles and types of baudo's. I wonder what the original looks like. definitely not like the baudo we know. someone needs to deconstruct the skate in fanart to get the original look. -----signature----- www.njoe.com (Govsec Author) "Less is more!"

	Well, WEG's books present the stock Baudo as that picture on the right, and you can find an excellent fan-made deckplan of it in the Star Wars Artist's Guild. In my opinion the comics screwed up in coming up with this new, almost completely contradictive, version of the Baudo yacht for the Pulsar Skate. -----signature----- If it weren't for bad luck I'd have no luck at all.

	Wow, the second one is pretty sweet looking, almost like an oversized Jedi starfighter... the first one looks like something out of a space rts or something... -----signature----- Alive and geeking since 1984.

	The comics version looks far more "Star Warsy" then the one on the right. Plus, isn't something that actually appears in a story higher canon then something from a reference book? If you really can't live with it, just say Mirax got a different ship between the comics and books, and called it the same name. Like the Enterprise. -----signature----- "the Force is between you, me, the tree, the rock, everywhere..."

	Once upon a time, the Moldy Crow was a WEG-type Baudo, before LucasArts decided to make it less sleek and more, uh, distinguished. See this page from an old PC Gamer magazine for screenshots (the rest of the article can be found at the bottom of this page.)

Is the picture on the left just the ship, cause it looks like a lambda is docked on it's roof. If you remove that, then the ship just becomes a blockier version of the sleek model on the right...that can be explained away I would guess. -----signature----- So Devaronian females are suppose to have thick fur, eh? Has anyone seen one outside an essential guide? ... When even the creative teams refuse to make fuzzy Devaronians...it should be a clue, folks. Thus endeth the lesson.

	well not neccessarily a lambda, but alone, does that not look like a shuttle or lander itself? Is that image of the skate followed up anywhere else in the comic to confirm the appearance? Perhaps not a lambda (though artistic expression when it comes to ships has long been allowed) but it certainly appears to be a second ship hooked to the roof of the Skate. -----signature----- So Devaronian females are suppose to have thick fur, eh?

	Jedimarine posted: Is that image of the skate followed up anywhere else in the comic to confirm the appearance? That is indeed how the Pulsar Skate is officially portrayed, even though the Baudo Yacht is obviously different. This is from the CCG This I believe is from Gamer or something like that? -----signature----- If it weren't for bad luck I'd have no luck at all.
