Re: SJD20 question - Cost to the pilot?

<<<<< Wow, that's quite a wish list for helm operation.  Off-hand, I'd say
creation would involve at least the following spells: Create air,
feather fall (inerta dampener), cold/heat resistance, shield, and fly
(at least).  Quite a number of abilities for any magic item, especially
one as cheap as 20k, if you use that price.>>>>>

Well with all these features in one item then I can see the price being the
same if not more than it is in 2e as long as these other items are avaliable
to explain the number of SJ ships out there. Its kinda like buying a
computer, if you buy from a store like Best Buy with everything already in
it then you will pay more than if you buy each part seperatly and put it
togather yourself based on your needs. I hope that made sense.
