− | + | *The Sloop is a new class of ship, slotting in roughly between the Fighter and Free Merchant. There are three sub-classes of Sloop: Scout, Miner, and Corvette. | |
+ | **Scout - as fast as a Fighter with more HP, power, and free mass; much faster than a Merchant, better AC, and a built in Survey Sensor Array. | ||
+ | **Miner - Better armor than a Fighter, more HP, more power and free mass, plus extra hardpoint for mining laser; better armor than a Merchant, more HP and more power. | ||
+ | **Corvette - More HP than a Fighter, much more power and free mass, extra hardpoint; faster than a Merchant, more armor. | ||
− | + | *A Corvette is a cross between a Free Merchant and a Patrol Boat. It has the same Speed (4), Armor (5), and Free Mass (10) as a Patrol Boat, but the same HP (20), Crew (1/6), AC (6), Power (10), and Hardpoints (2) as a Free Merchant. So faster and tougher than a Free Merchant, but smaller. It's a little cheaper as well; we'll call it 400,000 cr. | |

*I'm going to ignore Crawford's comments to you and stick with the rules as written. Maintenance costs only come into play annually. The monthly costs should come from paying for the ship and its crew. However, once the food, water, and oxygen run out, they're out. I have no trouble with players manually restocking the larder with food but the ship is equipped to reload water from a spaceport. You'll need to jury rig something to pump (a lot of) potable water from somewhere else. It's not as easy as filling up a few jugs of water and pouring them into the tank. | *I'm going to ignore Crawford's comments to you and stick with the rules as written.
