SHIPDEVS
&081This help file is meant to provide clarity and common terminology for clans
developing new ships. Starships on Legends of the Jedi come in 10 different
classes outlined in HELP SHIPSIZE, but within those classes are different
categories for stat-balancing purposes. While these arent the only options,
they represent typical development lanes that staff focuses on and are often
the most straightforward choices for balancing and approval. Please note that
some ship developments have additional requirements that are not listed here.
