Going by public opinion, I want to know, should I be able to make up my own stats on this vessel and go with them until real stats are published or R&D this vessel regardless of the fact that it is cannon?

The V'sett fighter craft, a maned Ssi-Ruuvi fighter mentioned in the book Force Heritic II: Refugee, has no stats and the only mention I have found is this ([url="http://www1.theforce.net/CUSWE/search.asp?search=V%27sett"]HERE[/url])

Since it's canon, I think you should make the stats but they should be decently acceptable and based on the book version.

The book version took on Y-wings, X-wings, A-wings and Chiss clawcraft all at the same time and beat them all...

I have read that book and read of the V'sett's prowess. They are deadly, with a sort of reflective sheild, and were comprable to the new generation fighter craft like XJ-X-Wings and Chiss Clawcraft- fast with heavy sheilding and weaponry.
Of course, they were limited by the Ssi-ruuvi religion for usage......

Only to be used over consecrated worlds due to the fact Ssi-Ruuvi want to keep their souls from wandering the galaxy forever

Well, i'm sure if a coupla reasonable people have read it, and can advise the staff on the matter (assuming none of us have read it that is, i know i haven't), i don't see why we couldn't come to some sort of agreement.

If need be I could make excerpts, after all I own the book...

If you could do that, that would be helpful.

"I have launches!"
The voice of one of his pilots jolted him out of his reverie. A quick glance at his board confirmed the report: the nearest of the two P'w'eck carriers, Errinung'ka, was disgorging dozens of smaller vessels into the space around it. His computer instantly recognized and marked the familiar droid fighters, but that proved to be only half the compliment of the new ships. The rest were of a type never before seen outside the borders of the Ssi-Ruuk Imperium. They were V'sett-class fighters, and if his memory served him well they possessed twice the firepower of ordinary droid fighters, as well as a superior maneuverability. Most importantly, though, they carried flesh-and-blood pilots

The manned V'sett fighters were tough kills, though. Flattened and slightly curved versions of the droid fighters the Ssi-ruuk usually sent into battle, these were equiped with sheild generators and sensor arrays at every corner. Their engines flashed with an eye-piercing violet when powering at max; their weapons burned brilliant white. Each pilot hid behind an opaque hull and sheilds that turned mirror-bright every time a shot came too near.
It was an earlier version of those sheilds, Jag gad learned in the academy, that the Emperor Palpatine had coveted. Hence his attempt to form a treaty with the Ssi-ruuk, just before the rebels had beaten him at Endor. Jag dreaded to think what might have happened had the Emperor's dream come true. If he'd had these sheilds back then, the rebellion would have undoubtedlly been quashed and the battle of Endor would have been considerably different. Moreover, the Chiss, safe in the Unknown Regions, might not have been safe for much longer.
