Game Notes: The Eta-3 requires a separate hyperdrive module in the form of a booster ring (the TransGalMeg Industries hyperdrive booster ring). Docking with the ring takes 3 rounds, and requires a Difficult starfighter piloting roll (the fighter’s maneuverability counts for this roll).
Background:Â The Eta-3 interceptor was a modified version of the Eta-2 starfighter used by the Jedi during the Clone Wars. The Eta-3 was a smaller vessel designed to be used by Jedi whose height was below the required 1.6 meters need to fly the Eta-2.
Jedi Master Yoda, accompanied by the astromech droid R2-D2, used a Eta-3 starfighter to go on a series of missions of discovery: traveling to Dagobah, to a mysterious planet inhabited by the Force Priestesses, and to Moraband.
