*-If a one is rolled on the wild die the proton torpedos hit each 
  other on the way out of the tubes and explode doing full damage to 
  the firing ship.  The explosion occurs within the shields so they do
  not protect against the damage.

Description:  The Missleboat has two mandables coming off the front of
              a rectangle.  The rectangle has a raise in it where the 
              bridge is and between the mandables are the three 
              concussion missle tubes.  The mandables look like stair 
              steps going up to the tip (two steps then the end).  On
              "step" and on the "tip" of the mandable are the proton
              torpedo tubes.  It has a top and bottom turret each 
              containing a quad laser cannon.

Capsule:  This is another foray into the starfighter market by KDY.  
          The Emperor wanted a heavier ship to replace the TIE Bomber 
          and KDY won out the designing contract shortly before the 
          Battle of Endor.  Even with the Emperor's "death" KDY was 
          told to continue the project.  A Grand Admiral in wild space
          seems to be very interested in this latest fighter and has
          asked to be sent several prototypes so he can see how well 
          they do in battle against the New Republic.  So far these 
          fighters have proven themselves very effective against 
          lighter capital ships such as the MC-60 and Nebulon-B often
          destroying these ships in one massive shot from the 6 
          torpedo launchers.  It only takes a handful to destroy a 
          MC-80.  Excepting the fact that if the Proton Torpedo Tubes 
          are aligned improperly they can destroy the firing ship, 
          this ship may prove to be one of the greatest Imperial 
          bombers ever designed.

Deployment:  Usually against smaller capital ships (such as MC-60's 
             and Nebulon-B's) only one flight of Missleboats is 
             lauched.  They usually use interceptors or superiority 
             fighters to provide support against starfighters.  If any
             starfighter gets to close the quad lasers are used 
             against them.  Against bigger targets (MC-80's and 
             captured ISD's) up to a squadron of Missleboats may be
             sent out.
