Please note that in a universe such as the UF universe, there would be a rule that these craft are NOT the kind that normally hover over the surface of the planet. Starfighter yes. Landspeeder, no.

(A friend of mine said the thing that most ticked him off about playing 'X-Wing' was the inability to blow up small obstacles like boulders, forcing you to crash into them if you didn't see until too late to maneuver.)
