The Moonshine

The Moonshine is a converted Katarn-class boarding shuttle, originally used by the Empire to send marines in boarding actions against Rebels, pirates and smugglers. The Katarn-class is not as heavily armed and armored as the spacetrooper's Gamma-class, but is known for its general reliability in the chaos of combat. The Moonshine originally belonged to (future Vigo) Moff Neomen, and was used to ferry the fleeing Moff when the Crew attacked and chased him from his palace. Forcing it down on a strange, crystalline world that hid his secret lair, Neomen scraped the bottom of the ship on an outcropping and heavily damaged it. It was salvaged and repaired by Zolar, who added it to the Rameseum's ship complement. The bottom half of the ship still shows the scars of the incident, however.

The Moonshine has had most of its armor and interior sensors stripped to make more room in the cargo bay for passengers. It is currently used as a shuttle to ferry passengers back and forth from the M4 to whatever planet or station they are currently in orbit around. Still, it has seen some combat in its days, and has proven itself in emergency towing, rescue and (of course) boarding operations while under the Crew's operation.

The Bottle Makes Three

The BM3, a Mindabaal Custom Pleasure Yacht, was originally bought by the Crew to serve as a cover for Torill and Zolar to make contact with Vigo Leanna. Intending to masquerade as nobles, they shared the cost of the yacht and used it to cover their approach under aliases. Of course, problems arose when ownership of the yacht was contested between the two, and it was eventually agreed that although Torill could name the ship and be its captain, Zolar could use and modify it as he wished.

The Bottle Makes Three is fast, sleek and maneuverable, thanks to a series of custom modifications put under the dash by Zolar. The equivalent of a Miami drug lord's BMW, it is loaded with secret compartments, overdrive systems, and hidden weapons that give the otherwise-fragile looking vessel teeth. It is used when Zolar feel he needs to make an impression.
