Vehicle Price Differences


Rules Questions

Sovereign Court

2 people marked this as FAQ candidate.

I've been doing some reading and I came across some alternate stats for a few things such as weapons and vehicles.

For the weapons, I found a few things with differences in damage dice, crit multipliers and ranges, and weight. I figured just go with the more recently published book.

As for Vehicles:

Galley costs 30,000 gp in the Core Rulebook
Then 10,000 gp in Ultimate Combat
both descriptions are about the same except Ultimate Combat's being more detailed, and with a non-rowing option.

Keelboat costs 3,000 gp in the Core Rulebook
Then 13,000 gp in Ultimate Combat.
The only major difference is carrying capacity. The expensive one can carry 40-50 tons, and the expensive one can carry 1,000 lbs. A difference of 39.55 tons. Between the two, the cheaper version can carry more weight, which makes no sense since it should be a property that increases it's value, not decrease.

If I go by the publication date idea...
Core Rulebook 1st Print -> Ultimate Combat -> Core Rulebook 5th Print

Ultimate Combat came between the different erattas of the Core Rulebook, but the Core Rulebook never modified the prices of the two vehicles.

Sovereign Court

If I had to make a call, I'd go with Ultimate Combat.

It was out after the Core Rulebook. The only bit of the Core Rulebook that was out after Ultimate Combat was the erratas, but the erratas are more error corrections of what they caught so far than new final editions.
