The book covers information on starship design, space station design, and shipyards. It contains new rules for starships and starship-using characters, adventures, and stats and information on a number of starfighters, space transports, capital ships, and space stations. It also covers special rules for starships, starfighters, and space stations of the Star Wars roleplaying game. A few pages show how to create and supply ships and space stations for the game. Game players can use this guide as a source for the game or on building ships for their characters' personal use.
This book was never updated for the revised rules presented in the Star Wars Roleplaying Game Revised Core Rulebook, but it is simple to convert this book's stats to the new system.
An updated edition was released in 2007.
