Power Requirements. 0 0 MANOEUVRE DRIVE BASIC SHIP SYSTEMS 0 JUMP DRIVE SENSORS Effectively a strippeddown version of the ubiquitous TypeA Free Trader, the A Fast Trader gives up cargo space in favour of a more powerful manoeuvre drive and greater jump drive. This translates not only into greater speed but also better agility. In regions of space where pirates and raiders lurk, this extra speed can make all the difference, though the Fast Trader is also popular among pirate forces for the same reasons. 0 HULL POINTS

This comes at the compromise of performance, for while the Star Ray is wellarmed, its relatively low thrust makes catching anything more sprightly than a merchant vessel difficult. However, its low cost has made it a popular choice for production within the shipyards of Theev.

The rear turret is almost an afterthought and provides minimal defensive capabilities. A common refit is to replace the ship s lifeboat with escape pods and use the added tonnage for more cargo space and staterooms. 0 HULL POINTS

It therefore sees use among both militaries and pirate forces. While it has relatively limited cargo space, the ship is also equipped with an auxiliary highburn thruster with enough fuel to create a combined thrust of G for two hours; enough to break orbit and reach the hundred diameter limit of all but the largest gravity wells.

However, these qualities also make the Fieryclass highly attractive to pirates and other criminals. The presence of this ship can either give merchants in the area complete confidence in reaching their destinations safely, or it can send ripples of fear throughout an entire system.

While it uses mostly standard components, its hull is coated with sensorbaffling material, and it is equipped with cuttingedge electronic countermeasures. When this vessel closes on a target, there is little chance of the target having enough time to transmit a distress call before teleporting marines arrive. Fastmoving enemies that might be able to escape The Ghost of the Reach can be flanked by the ship s boat.

Externally indistinguishable from a standard subsidised merchant, the TypeRQ is a pirate s nightmare. Posing as a helpless trader, the crew will attempt to sucker a pirate into striking range and then reveal the full capabilities of their ship. Compared to other subsidised merchants, this ship has a much more powerful manoeuvre drive, heavy armour, concealed weaponry and internal bays capable of releasing light fighters to swarm and destroy an enemy.

WEAPONS FUEL PROCESSOR 0 HULL POINTS Easily recognised by the two grappling arms mounted upon the prow, the Vultureclass salvage hauler can usually be found insystem, picking apart derelicts for spare parts and materials. The cargo bay also opens within the prow, allowing the grappling arms to tear chunks off a derelict ship and feed them directly into the cargo bay. When not engaged in salvage operations, Vultures are perfectly functional as small traders, due in no small part to their large cargo space and jump range.

Power Requirements 7 WEAPONS BASIC SHIP SYSTEMS SENSORS FUEL PROCESSOR Originally designed as a raider and pocket warship, the corsair has been adopted by pirates and criminal gangs across Charted Space (especially by the Pirate Lords of Theev, whose shipyards specialise in constructing this class). The large clamshell cargo doors are a distinctive feature and can open to reveal the entire cargo bay, allowing the corsair to easily carry a 00ton ship within. In addition, corsairs have several variable identification features, allowing them to alter their shape and configuration within minutes. These include fins that can retract or extend, modules that can be deployed or sunk into the hull, and radio emissions that alter frequency and content. Unusually, the corsair s transponders are highly adaptable, allowing them to be altered to identify the ship as having a variety of missions and identities. Being unarmoured, the corsair relies on speed and hitting power, and is not designed to duke it out with warships in the depths of space. However, its weapon modules are highly adaptable and while most come out of the shipyards armed with three triple beam laserfilled turrets, the hull can readily accept more weaponry be it in turrets, barbettes or bays, and the power plant has enough excess energy to power them. 7

Sufficient repairs will then be made to allow the stricken vessel to make it back to a starport under its own power. Small ships can be swallowed whole by the Magenta, permitting crews to make repairs within the comfort of its hangar, while larger ships can be repaired by EVA engineers, or even towed. Unusually for this type of vessel, the Magentaclass is capable of safely entering atmospheres, enabling it to repair ships planetside.

It is not pretty to look at by any means, but forms a vital lifeline to systems that are too heavily populated to be served by free traders. Capturing a megafreighter like the Galoof is a lifelong ambition for many pirates, and so it rarely travels without an escort which grows only larger as more dangerous space is crossed. Conditions on board are Spartan, but the sheer size of the cavernous cargo bays always leave a firsttimer Traveller breathless.

The Planetclass was originally named the Ghalalkclass (enlarged), since the design was developed from that vessel. The Ghalalk and the following Planetclass cruisers were designed from the outset for the fleet role. Tactical and strategic mobility match the requirements for all major Imperial fleets jump and G acceleration. Armament is built around an advanced spinal particle accelerator capable of destroying lesser ships and inflicting serious damage on cruisers and even battleships. Secondary armament is missilebased, with an extensive fusion gun battery for closein combat. A force of marines is routinely carried for intervention and fastresponse situations. PURCHASE COST MCr.

59 T R A V E L L E R HIGH GUARD: ASLAN Despite outward appearances, Aslan ships use much the same technology as human vessels, and either race can readily utilise ships belonging to the other with a minimum of difficulty. However, Aslan do display a slightly different approach towards ships and this is reflected in their design. Aslan have no special regard for luxury, and the Hierate does not have separate High Passage tickets. All paid passages are Middle, Basic or Low. However, any Aslan of SOC + will receive the services of the ship s steward automatically, and the Middle passage baggage allowance increases to 00 kg. Aslan nobles always have precedence, and usually bump passengers of lesser standing. Working passage is common within a clan but rarely available to nonclan members. The following are customs within Aslan space. Space is not Territory: No Aslan male may claim a region of space. A Traveller need not ask permission to enter any region of space but before he puts a single foot on the ground, he must give all traditional honours to the landowner. Clan Hospitality: There is a strong tradition that the clan takes care of its own. If members of a Traveller s clan live on a particular world, they will offer free food and lodging, and provide a Middle Passage ticket upon a Difficult (0+) Persuade check. Outcasts or Travellers who have been Outcasts are not extended this hospitality. Referees can determine the presence of an Aslan s clan on a world through materials they have previously prepared; alternatively, roll 0+ on D, modified by the Clan Presence table. Clan Presence Condition DM Local Population + + Local Government type H + Aslan is member of one of the Tlaukhu clans + Per sector distant from the clan homeworld

60 Swapping Stories: Aslan with time on their dewclaws enjoy telling stories of their exploits and adventures. During the long days of a space journey, the passengers (and crew with no immediate jobs to perform) meet in the galley or central lounge and take turns telling stories of what they have seen, what they have done, and what they plan to do. Participants in these storyswapping sessions gain acceptance into the group as well as diversion from the boredom of a long journey. In addition, the stories told are often the source of further adventures or expeditions. Decoration: Aslan ships are invariably heavily decorated with inscriptions and clan heraldry; even control systems can be decorated with gold, jewels or other art. Even on military vessels, the Aslan like to decorate their surroundings. CREWS Aslan crew standards vary since there is no central authority to prescribe the number and type of crew required. The fundamentals of ship operation mean the requirements for pilot, astrogator, and engineer are the same as for human ships. Pilots are almost always male; astrogators and engineers are almost always female. Stewards are not required. Most properly staffed ships will include at least one because noble males taking passage on any ship require the services of one steward per four nobles, and if no proper steward is provided, another crew member will be coopted for the position. A wellprepared ship thus provides a steward in order to avoid losing an engineer or astrogator at the wrong moment. Medics are not required either; the position of medic is filled when the ship s owner feels it necessary or when the crew demands it forcefully enough. Because of the nature of Aslan society and upbringing, most ships have a male in formal command of the ship and a female who deals with many details (specifically finances) which are beneath the male s dignity. The male captain is almost always the pilot. On military ships, the female is the captain s executive officer, while on commercial ships, she will be the purser. In both cases, she may also be the astrogator. Purser: A merchant ship engaged in commercial activity, trade, commerce, cargo transport, passenger transport, or charter activity must have a purser. Invariably, the purser will be female, and must have a minimum of either Admin or Broker. The purser is paid a salary of Cr000 per month. The Aslan Crew Requirements table replaces that on page of High Guard.

61 Aslan Crew Requirements Position Gender Skills Salary Commercial Military Captain Male Cr0000 Usually the leading officer Pilot Male Pilot Cr000 Purser Female Admin or Broker Cr000 Executive Male Leadership or Cr000 Officer Tactics Astrogator Female Astrogation Cr000 if jump drive installed if jump drive installed Engineer Female Engineer Cr000 per tons of drives and power plant per tons of drives and power plant Maintenance Female Mechanic Cr000 per 000 tons of ship per 00 tons of ship Gunner Male Gunner Cr000 per turret, bay or screen per turret, bay or screen, per 00 tons of spinal mount weaponry Steward Female Steward Cr000 per noble males per noble males Administrator Female Admin Cr00 per 000 tons of ship per 000 tons of ship Officer Either Leadership or Tactics Cr000 * per full 0 crew per full 0 crew * This can be presumed to be an average taken across all officer positions on a ship. In practice, it will vary a great deal between junior and senior officers. 0

62 Note that any smaller craft carried by a ship will have their own crew in addition to those necessary for the mother vessel. Societal Standards: Because of expectations within Aslan society, all but pirate ships will restrict crew positions to the proper gender. Only males may be gunners and pilots. Only females will be astrogators, pursers, engineers, medics, and stewards. Otherwise undefined crew positions (security personnel, mechanics, technicians, small craft pilots, and clerks) are open to any properly skilled individuals, although noble males will refuse most positions other than gunner or pilot. ASLAN CONTROL SYSTEMS Aslan controls fall into four categories male, female, dual and reconfigurable. Male controls are deliberately simplified and abstracted, displaying only the most vital information. Female control displays are overly complex, giving a bewildering array of options to the user and requiring great skill to master. Dual controls include both male and female control systems in the one system; either the male controls are a clearly demarcated subset of the female controls, or the control system is compact enough to have two entirely separate interfaces. Finally, reconfigurable controls are the most advanced, and can dynamically change themselves to present the appropriate interface. On most large spacecraft, the piloting and gunnery interfaces are male, while all other control systems are female. Dual controls are more common on smaller ships, where a smaller crew makes it more likely that an Aslan will have to perform duties commonly associated with the opposite gender. Ships built at TL or higher always have reconfigurable controls throughout. A female Aslan will never suffer penalties for using maleconfigured controls (though she will likely become frustrated at their simplicity), but male Aslan using femaleconfigured controls suffer DM to all relevant checks. Aslan dislike automated systems, so few Aslan ships come equipped with Evade programs, and Fire Control software only offers DMs to attack rolls it cannot make automated attacks by itself. SHRINES All Aslan ships carry a Shrine to Heroes, where Aslan go to meditate on (and gain confidence from) the thoughts, deeds and philosophies of their ancestors. This is typically a small, private room, draped in tapestries and decorated with scenes of conquest. An Aslan ship of more than 00 tons must have at least one Shrine to Heroes (smaller ships may have them at the option of their owners), and larger ships must have at least one per 0,000 tons. A Shrine is treated as if it were a normal stateroom (consumes tons and costs MCr0.), but it cannot be used for occupancy and does not incur any life support costs.

The Hraye s cheap running cost means these vessels are often found serving as couriers or transports in small colonies.

A typical ihateisho exploration lasts two to three years, at which point the wanderer returns to the nearest ihatei camp and gathers an army to conquer the most suitable territory found during his wandering. The ihateisho is then either returned to the clan or traded for a share in a larger vessel. An ihateisho is sometimes considered especially lucky if former owners have gone on to find good territories.

They are converted agricultural transports, with the low berths designed for freezing large food animals. A Hkisyeleaa would land on an agricultural planet and load up on hundreds of live animals, taking them to be devoured by rich nobles. The Glorious Empire has adapted their Hkisyeleaas for slave raiding. Unfortunate humans are captured by Aslan raiders riding ATVs and thrown into the freezing chambers. A fullystocked Slaver can carry more than,00 slaves if the captain is willing to cram as many bodies as possible into the low berths; 70 is more of a safe number. Slavers are comparatively lightly armed and have little protection from attackers, so are normally escorted by more combatready ships. OVERCROWDING LOW BERTHS Only the most callous captain would intentionally set out to squeeze two bodies into one low berth, as this is highly dangerous and subjects are unlikely to survive without the best medical treatment available upon their awakening.

The Sakhai s distinctive horseshoe profile allows its batteries of beam lasers and missile racks to rake targets on either side, while protecting the mighty fusion bay mounted in the centre. It can carry one hundred and sixty marines in addition to its normal 0person crew; there are another two hundred low berths for frozen troops or captives. While the Sakhai is capable of landing on a planet, it takes a skilled hand at the controls and a dedicated team of engineers to keep the ship spaceworthy after touching down. A bad landing can warp the ship s dorsal struts, effectively crippling it. Many far flung Aslan outposts have a downed Sakhai at their hearts.
