Title: Can't believe I didn't notice this until now
Post by: Bonkus72 on February 28, 2017, 09:04:13 pm

I've taken on a couple of small Trader ships in the past, with difficulty I might add.  Was clearing my 3rd ship, pretty early early in the game (only May of the first year) and it struck me.  The ship is shaped like the Millennium Falcon, the dudes all look vaguely like Han Solo, they have fuzzy Wookie looking guys (Bugbears) aboard who fix stuff.  *Facepalm*

There's potentially more links as well.  :)

As it written on tv-tropes (https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/VideoGame/Piratez):

Star Wars: Much of the Smugglers faction references the Millennium Falcon, with the leader modelled after Han Solo, the engineers somewhat resembling Wookies and Public Enemy being a shout out to Obi-Wan, especially how he appears in the Star Wars Gangsta Rap 3.
