GDGÇÖs been giving me a headache lately. Soooo serious all the time!!!
All this constant debate about HS v LS, CBs v Pews. WeGÇÖre overlooking the important questions! Like:
If CCP had come up with the Millennium Falcon, what would have been its faction, class and bonuses?
And when thatGÇÖs sorted, what would be the official Han Solo fit?
IGÇÖll start with : itGÇÖs more Desi size than Cruiser, but a GÇÿBlockade RunnerGÇÖ if ever there was one!
Embrace your inner geek! DiscussGǪ

That bucket of bolts would be minmatar for sure. Heavy weaponry, bad defenses, faster than a rabbit on crack sent flying by a nuke, and build from whatever part the builder had on hand. |

It should get a bonus for smuggling... every level adds 10% chance your evasive maneuvering (listing lazily to the left) works to make the customs scans miss

Oh my...
It's gotta be Caldari.
The ship is built for function, blocky, non-symmetrical, and shield tanked.
Every ship has a cargo hold - the M. Falcon's is not large - so it isn't a blockade runner. And hell, Han *gets* caught and inspected. He just hides the cargo well.
It also fends off an attack of several newbie frigates (tie-fighters) at once, but has trouble tracking them. One shot kills them when it hits though, so it's likely packing medium guns.
I'm thinking it's a cruiser, along the lines of a Moa, although better looking.
I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all. |

Caldari Industrial modified by Minmatar Booster Sellers for use as a blockade runner.
I'd win one in a bet if CCP introduced some for of Sabacc.

Well CCP did a good job coming up with the Rifter/X-Wing in a non copyright infringing way.
Lets have a 'Fillenium Malken - Light freighter' in the next expansion CCP.

As much as I'd hate to agree with Some Rando, he's right. The Falcon wasn't a special snowflake, it was mass-produced just like every other ship. In fact, it was a pile - run down, falling apart, full of non-OEM replacement parts and spot-welds.
The only thing that made it special was its crew, and their exploits. Serenity (Firefly) had nearly the exact same story; it was a mass-produced cargo ship turned junker, that happened to acquire an interesting, adventurous crew.

Some points of interest about the falcon.
Well the key thing about the Millennium falcon is its tiny by eve comparisons... Only some 30 meters long. That's smaller than a shuttle.
Its cargo is fairly small too. listed as 100 metric tons. Eve doesn't list capacity in weight but by m3, but that's not much either way.
Unlike a shuttle it does have 2 turrets (1 in eve terms... one on each side)
Also it is listed as having some form of ECM along with its awsome speed.
Baring this in mind I would think in eve terms it would be a shuttle sized ship with a cargo hold of roughly 10-20m3. It would have 1 turret hard point and an free highslot.
Its bonuses would be a bonus to ECM burst effectiveness and a bonus to warp speed. Mabye... just mabye a roll bonus of interdiction nullifcation.
It wouldn't be an effective ship for most things... useful getting blueprints or high value faction modules though places it shouldn't. |

so, considering the given explanation of that... it should be an agility bonus not a warp-speed bonus?

Obviously it was rigged though. I recall Han mentioning that he made some "special modifications" of his own. |

YT-1300
Conceived by a panel of CEC shipbuilding experts with help from Narro Sienar,[4] the YT series went on to become one of the most popular space transport hulls ever produced, revolutionizing the interstellar shipping industry with its unparalleled application of modular design. Whole sections could be mass-produced and arranged into new configurations as needed without extensive retooling. This saved CEC enormous amounts of credits by allowing the starships to be brought to market at extremely competitive prices.
The YT-1300 model exemplified this concept with a circular main corridor and modular compartments that could be mounted around it, all radiating outwards from a central core inside a saucer-shaped hull making for both a convenient and economic design.
Role Bonus:
10% increased speed per lvl
10% agility per lvl
Special ability:
50% reduction of Afterburner powergrid use
50% reduction of Shild Booster powergrid use
2 High Slots (1 turrent)
5 Mid slots
3 Low slots
Spec's and size listed here:

Han's fit had to include an oversized ab and shield booster after all

The YT-1300 would be a noobship. Able to be pilotted by either beginner, or true PvP elite. The best part, Free.
Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings? |
