Re: TravHero: Type S Scout Courier v2.0

 

one question on things, how do we account for cargo tonnage?

do we need to increase the strength?

 

I figure we can go with the general figure of 5 tons weight per displacement ton of cargo. that figure comes from GT, Fire Fusion and Steel says .25 metric tons per cubic meter, which should we use?

 

or does this make any real difference?

It's a special effect - the same as the gas tank in a car. The only difference is that the volume (hexes) it takes up is significant as far as deckplans go, compared with a car.

 

One of my friends years ago was running his version of TravellerHERO (MT) and he made it an END Reserve with 1 million END. Not the solution we want, I don't believe.

I think we don't worry about it, as a Vehicle's STR is supposed to include normal carrying.

Re: TravHero: Type S Scout Courier v2.0

 

Seems to me you have to list it if the ship does have one.

It matters to how (well) the jump drive works, it costs money and takes up space, so it's a significant piece of equipment.

 

Do you do it as a heavily-limited Minor Transform?
