Beginning as an interesting photo on Redit,  I spun the Idea of what I would want in a blocade runner.  Beginning on the frame of the Republic Consular Diplomatic Ship featured in Episode 1.  The Republic Blockade Runner is Overgunned to put it mildly.  I thought what would it take to really punch through a blocade.  So Large Fast Sublight Engines,  Many Guns, A Quad Heavy Bomb Turret.  A Tripple Heavy Ion Cannon Turret,  Dual Laser Cannons, and 8 blaster turrets.  The Republic Blocade Runner is designed to punch through the most determined blocade.  All this hardware comes at a significant cost both in credits and tradeoffs.  The ship has virtually no cargo space, Very limited range, and No crew comforts.  When equiped with a Hyperdrive that hyperdrive must be a slow one.  It is intended to lead a convoy through the blocade and then rendezvous with a larger vessle for pick up.  The former diplomatic pod in the front has been converted into fuel and supply storage.
