Phantasy Star: Eternal Story - Vehicles

Though strictly an optional part of the trade, vehicles can be powerful tools, whether they are people movers, mobile weapons, or floating cities. This section covers everything from one-man gravbikes to space stations. These are instructions for designing a custom vehicle, starship, or space station. Pre made vehicles will be put at the bottom of this page later on.

If designing a custom vehicle, tally up the total number of construction points as you go. The price of your vehicle is based on the number of points it uses.

Type: First, select the type of vehicle you desire to create. This is important because each type has different features and different size categories:
