Alright, the first stock list is up! It is not yet totally finished but I figured I'd go ahead and put it up seeing as how I'm not going to be able to get to much until next week. It is incomplete in that some of the elements for SJB Staw Wars Stock version 2.0 are not yet present. So I must ask you at this time:
-Please do not modify your vehicles. There are rules behind modification that are not yet totally finished and wouldn't make sense anyway as I haven't yet defined the capabilities of each vehicle's chassis. Any vehicles must remain in "stock" condition until the shop system is complete. -Once you post your vehicle thread, PM me to get the specs for it posted in teh first post of your thread, layed out neatly and in the manner most conducive to the upcoming shop system. Once the shop system really goes up, you'll be able to do this yourself. -YOU MAY ONLY USE THIS NEW SHOP IF YOU ARE PART OF THE REBELLION. NO CHEATING. I WILL CATCH YOU.
So, have fun with your new vehicles! Currently available are the Incom T-16 Skyhopper, the Incom Z-95 Headhunter, the Incom T-65 X-wing, and the Koensayr BTL-S3 Y-wing. The A, B, V, and E-wings are not yet available, not because I haven't completeed the entries for them, but because the Rebellion has not invented them yet. (I am unsure about the A-wing. If someone can show me with canon or official evidence that the A-wing was in production before Luke left Tatooine I'll put it in the list and give you one, free of charge) Many droids, weapons, and other equipment are aslo available.

Q: What is SJB Star Wars Stock Version 2.0 (Special Trilogy Edition)?
A: It is a modification, overhaul, and next generation of my simple "Shop Stock Lists" that I did for SWRPGalaxy last summer. I assembled the ship, droid, and equipment listings and components thereof with official terms and product numbers from the Star Wars Essential Guides to Vehicles Vessels (Old version), Weapons and Technology, and Droids. As that RP took place in the way distant futre of the Star Wars universe, I'm giving the lists a revamp to fit with the times. For instance, some listings from "New Republic Center Compretech Vehicle and Equipment Emporium", "Theed Industrial Automaton Droid Outlet", and "Sienar/Merr-Sonn Conglomerate" to form the "Ord Mantell Junkyard Database". I plan to release more modern ships as they get invented in the Timeline. However, the changes being made are ot merely shuffling of the listing and renaming stuff, I also plan to formulate a ship Modification System wherein you can purchase an unfinished chassis for a vehicle and then put whatever you like in it, with rules in place to keep people from going crazy with their modding. Don't worry, if you buy a fully furnished X-wing (Which is the only way they come as of yet), you'll be able to take parts off of it and put new ones on when the Modification system comes out.
Q: Why does an X-wing cost 1000?
A: The price is as high as it is because that's the way it would be in the real Star Wars universe (Well, the Rebellion paid Incom easily over 100,000 credits for one X-wing, but relative to the RP) if X-wings were available for general sale. They were not, which leads to the next question:
Q: Why does an X-wing cost anything at all? Shouldn't the Rebellion issue me one for free?
A: Well, that would mean that our fair Senator, Shay, would be able to go and demand an X-wing from the Rebellion, without having to enlist or prove her skills as a pilot. It is true that the Rebellion didn't charge people for their ships, but with the exception of extreme emergencies where farmboys with airspeeder practice got ships handed to them after some sim runs, you would have to go through the equivalent of the 1000 in training and tests before they'd let you handle one of their expensive ships.

(I am unsure about the A-wing. If someone can show me with canon or official evidence that the A-wing was in production before Luke left Tatooine I'll put it in the list and give you one, free of charge) According to the Starwars databank: "The Alliance brain trust of General Jan Dodonna and engineer Walex Blissex developed the A-wing starfighter after examining the role of speed in the Battle of Yavin"

Two new shops for the Fringe are live! I am really, really sorry for the wait, guys, but I think you'll like what you see. Everyone who PMed me, you get four free vehicular parts for your upgrading purposes, and I mean any parts, so long as they are listed under the two new lists. If you're not interested in upgrading your ship, you get a free droid.
From now on all shops are stickied in their Forums, and it's up to you guys to find them. ;D
EDIT: Oh yeah, and Calvin, for answering the Challenge presented above, and going above and beyond to solidly beat me in the ensuing Star Wars tech debate, gets a YT-2400, a Warp Vortex Field Stabilizer which will allow it to travel as fast as the Millennium Falcon (But he won't actually go that fast because he's nice ) and 12 upgrades of his choice. And yes, this is fair, guys, anyone who can whip me as badly as he did in Star Wars tech debate will get the same thing, but I 100% guarantee you it won't happen, at least not as hardcore as he did it.

I'm really not sure. I put up the Correllian Corvette in one of the shops, but that's as big as it's going to get, at least for now.

I think that we should have the Star Destroyer and Mon Calamari cruiser, but make them realy expensive, plus the person has to purchase a crew.

Well, the thing is that all the ISDs and Star Cruisers are accounted for...
