Hull tonnage of Star Wars ships?

[Jame]

The M-F site looks like a lot of work went into it. I'll have to print it out soon - two days from now(?) so I can give it a proper look.

And Sophia and far-trader, I'm thinking along the lines of normal Traveller displacement volume, using hydrogen.

Han Solo won his ship in a card game, that's still possible in the OTU, his opponent would have had to have been very drunk to put up the title of a Mcr70+ Starship on the card table.

I just felt obligated to mention that his opponent was Lando Calrissian. His marker was for any used starship on his lot, the business endeavor he was pursuing at the time. He was a little unhappy when Han picked out Landos own personal ship.

</font>[/QUOTE]Yes. According to Lando's train of thought Han should have opted for one of the nicer looking ones at the front that were actually cheap and nasty but looked good, but instead he knew what he was doing and opted for the junker at the back.

Where is all this revealed?

It's in the Expanded Universe, though the bet is mentioned in The Empire Strikes Back (the best of the movies, IMNHO [in my not humble opinion]). IIRC, the actual bet is made in (umm...) the Han Solo Trilogy, by A.C. Crispin.

Yeah I remember the mention of the bet in TESB (I agree: the best of the movies), but I didn't have the details. I've read Ann's first book. I'll have to get the other two.
