Why hasn't anyone commented on how similar the layout of the BH's ship is to the Serenity? Enter into the cargo hold in the back, stairway on the left leading to a catwalk which takes you to the bridge. The general shape of the main room. Even the doors feel reminiscent . Is it an exact copy, no of course not. Could it be coincidence? Sure. There is a common utility to the layout. And yet, the moment I stepped into that ship with my first BH, I found it very.... familiar.

Actually Mabari armor was Star Wars before it was in DA. They had Mabari Armor in SWG.

It's a precursor to the Firespray-31 that KDY will eventually engineer to replace the Mantis-class cruiser in a few millenia http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Fires...d_attack_craft Bioware had to reverse-engineer the iconic class spacecraft and make prototypical variants of what would evolve to be those spacecraft.
