Description
I've removed Captain Antilles from the mod and gave the Sundered Heart to Leia.
Why not keep Antilles and give Leia the Tantive IV?
Depends on the timing of the mod. If this takes place before the destruction of Alderaan, then what you suggest would make sense. However, if it takes place after the Battle of Yavin, then the Tantive IV would have been impounded (if not destroyed) by the Empire, and Captain Antilles (as seen in Episode IV) had died (choked by Darth Vader). It would then make more sense for Leia to take command of the Sundered Heart, as it would not be a ship the Alliance could afford to loose.
I've always loved the Sundered Heart...the way I see it, the creators were like "Hey, you know those blockade runners with a trillion engines?" "Yeah!" "Well I'm going to add a bunch more engines and wings to one!"
