Background
A relatively common vessel prior to the Clone Wars, but after the collapse of the Republic, they are all but banned by the new Galactic Empire under the cover story that the power plant of the YX-950 was unstable and a potential safety hazard to its occupants as well as well as any shipyard facility it was docked at. In truth, the opposite was true. The YX-950 was only a threat to the Empire because it’s reactor system was so reliable. Like other Corellian freighter designs the YX-950 had a relatively massive decentralized reactor that could power over-sized engines and give it incredible durability for a ship of it’s size. It could also power a number of onboard facilities such as refineries for fuel and raw materials as well as fabrication base. This power output could easily be converted to support capital-scale weapons and was spread out across the ship making it difficult to destroy the entire power system simultaneously, making the ship capable of engaging Imperial frigates.
