A list of basic starship designs, 5th Revised?

[brokefang]

Okay I may be a little lazy, but several times I have taken a run at building up some kind of generic ship list for a Star Hero game, with basic numbers thrown at them. Occasionally I manage to write out a ship, but more often I get myself lost in amongst the vehicle/base building rules.

I may have overlooked such a list somewhere in one of the HERO books, or even on these forums. If thats the case, could someone make me look a bit more stupid and post it? Regardless, does anyone have or know any sites I should check out?

The Ultimate Vehicle has some starships, and so do various Star Hero books.

theres also some assorted stuff here on the Star Hero boards, and some stuff at the Star Hero Fandom site... I might even start cranking out more stuff of my own style again

Thanks for these, I'll take a quick look if I can find a copy of the book, and I'll hunt out the Fandom Site as well.

Traveller Hero also had a good selection. Although they were designed for Traveller, the ship designs covered most of the basics: here's your freighter, scout ship, patrol ship, etc. Small craft, too.

I also do custom designs or design tweaking for starships and vehicles in general, if you want something specific put together, either post a shopping list or contact me off list, been doing mostly real world vehicles lately
so if say you wanted to put together a cybertank or something based loosely on a current modern vehicle, thats doable too.

Thanks some more. Hadn't thought of looking at Traveller Hero. I suppose I should have really.

The Fifth Edition Star HERO sourcebook, Spacers Toolkit, greatly expands the list of starships for the Terran Empire setting, with over thirty full character sheets for military, civilian, and alien starships of various sizes and functions. It also lists and stats a small selection of generic starship components, such as power plants, drive systems, weapons, and defenses.

Spotted a copy of that in my local gaming shop, but lacked the money on hand >.<
Fully intending to buy it next time I am there though. Total lack of Sci Fi games at my usual gaming group, and I think that needs to change.
