shadowcat1313 Posted October 22, 2005 Report Share Posted October 22, 2005 Does anybody have any clue where they came up with the crew figures for the ships in the Terran Empire and Spacers Toolkit? I am starting to map out a new mad scientist project, and I am trying to be consistent with whats gone before if possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizen Keen Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 Re: Terran Empire/STK Starship Crews Are you referring to the number of crew members required to operate the ship listed in the spaceship writeups? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrTemp Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 Re: Terran Empire/STK Starship Crews My impression is that the numbers for TE ships given in the source materials are rather a genre thing. Large spacehsips have to have large crews (even if all those people have no work to do aboard...), full stop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobGreenwade Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 Re: Terran Empire/STK Starship Crews I've generally assumed that it's based loosely on size and equipment (a large ship with several weapons needs more crew than a small one with one or two weapons). For those I've written myself, I've generally picked a more or less arbitrary number, and I can only assume that Ben et al do likewise.
