This one is for TNE. I picked 1207 as the date since the /Freedom League
Sourcebook/ implied that all the little pocket empires in the heart of
the old Imperium had been in contact with one another (for good or bad)
for a short while.
*137-1206*
The Voshkohd Corporation is looking to purchase several small ships of
200 tons displacement (though we are open to bigger or smaller ships if
they can pass muster) to head up its new mining operations division.
Since most of Charted Space is still in ruins, functioning starports are
scarce in the Wilds. As such, the ship should be as self-sufficient as
possible, including the capability of wilderness refueling. Crew
accommodations may be spartan if it means that the ship's robustness is
assured.
_
_*Jump Range: *Two parsecs. We feel this will give us greater
flexibility to skip over hostile worlds, systems that don't have
reasonable wilderness refueling potential and small interstellar gulfs.
*Armaments: *Obviously the ship should be hardened against Virus,
utilizing the best anti-Viral technologies available. Ship's armaments
are left up to the discretion of the designer. However, a ship which can
not return with its cargo and crew intact is of no use to us.
*Tech Level: *No limitations. Bear in mind that we'll be in the Wilds.
While exotic technologies are wonderful to have, finding replacement
parts will be difficult. Sophisticated technologies that don't work are
junk.
*Cost:* Price is a major factor. Despite the progress made by the RCES
and other polities, the ruins of the old Imperium are still dangerous.
We anticipate losses. While crews are irreplaceable, we would prefer our
ships to be.
Please provide full design specs and costs.
