Talk:Vibre-class assault cruiser

Vibre-class Armament
The two primary sources for the ship's weaponry are the West End Jedi Academy Sourcebook (p. 131) and the WotC Starships of the Galaxy (2001, p. 88).

There is no discrepancy with the Tractor beams. The Jedi Academy Sourcebook indicates the ship fielded 4 Laser Cannons and 4 Ion cannons, while Starships of the Galaxy states the ship mounted 4 Light Turbolasers and 4 Heavy Ion Cannons.

According to Starship of the Galaxy's own weapons chart, the Vibre-class is too small to field either the Light Turbolaser or the Heavy Ion Cannon. SotG's weaponry charts are highly inconsistent, and I don't think there is a third source outside of these two RPG dev teams to arbitrate the discrepancy.

My recommendation would be to alter the weapons listed to reflect the Jedi Academy Sourcebook. West End's writers typically were more consistent with starships and weapons.
