What do you think. Homeworld The basic idea of this ship is that a asteroid aprox five miles across has been reconstructed into a starship. Name: Homeworld Craft: Asteroid modified to obtain hyperspace travel Scale: Capital Ship Scale Length: Aprox 5 mile dia. Crew: 20 Command personnel, 100 Engineering, 200 Gunners, 30 Medical, 200 Security, 1000 Tech, 30 Commonications Passengers: 5000 comfortably Cargo Capacity: 80,000 Tons Consumables: 6 Months Cost: unavailable for purchase Hyperdrive: x 10 Backup: x20 NavComputer: Yes Maneuverability: 1D Space: 4 Atmosphere: can’t achieve atmospheric flight Hull: 4D+1 (Asteroid surface) Shields: 6D+1, reserve 4D Sensors: Passive: 200/5D Scan: 300/6D Search: 400/7D Focus: 200/8D Weapons: 4 Planetary Scale Ion Cannons 8 Twin Turbo Laser Batteries 6 Tractor Beam Generators 1 Grav Well Projector Thinking about adding a few more. The asteroid had previously been a subject of a mining colony. The network of tunnels were expanded to support the infrastructure of the ship. Capital scale parts for the engins, shields, weapons, and other things were either stolen, bought throuth phoney companies, or custom made by resident techs. There are two docking bays. One is strictly for incoming s and outgoings of transports and shuttles. The other houses 2 squadrons of specially modified A-Wing fighters. The ship was primarily designed as a pirating ship. The concept was to move the ship into an area that is known as a well traveled trade lane (thereby creating a shaddow that would cause other ships nav. Computers to drop out of hyperspace. The crews would be so confused by the sudden stop that it would be easy to hit them with a Ion blast or 4. Development is on the way for a hyperspace scanner that would detect approaching ships. At this stage the best that has been created is an unmanned probe ship that is equiped with passive scanners, a hyperdrive, and a hyperspace transmitter and a robot brain pilot. The probe would fly down the space ways and drop out when a ship is detected and identified. It then would transmit this data back to Homeworld (coded of course). Homeworld would then be ready and waiting. The only problem with this si that the probes must be retrieved from space. There is of course a convoy fleet that acompanies the homeworld. The fleet is maitained by a terrorist/pirate group that goes by the name The Red Moons. At least in my world.
