The players have through a process of osmosis, inheritance, gift, just conquest or outright piracy come into possession of a number of ships, thus far. I’ve included the stats for each as a download (except for the Lady Luck, which is just a common-or-garden Empress Marava, available in High Guard).
The Lady Luck
This was the ship that the party started out with: a standard Empress Marava Far Trader, 200 dtons in size and good for trading around the safer parts of the Trojan Reach.
The So Much For Subtlety
A Drinaxian commerce raider built on the lines of an old, TL15 Sindalian class of ship, the So Much For Subtlety is a dangerous pirate with a holographic hull, phenomenal stealth capabilities and a murderously dangerous armament of particle barbette and beam lasers. When on piratical business, her transponder identity changes to the Capital Gains Tax.
The Mercifuge
Siezed, post mortem, from Miria Silverhand on Theev, this is a four hundred ton Vulture class salvager, with a very large cargo bay that offers the party options when they need to trade or move around a lot of cargo.
The Phlebotomist
The Phlebotomist repesents the spoils of war, having been taken from the defeated pirate Ferrik Redthane in a battle in Palindrome system. She is a 300-ton heavy modular jump cutter, mounting five 30-ton modules that can be varied according to the mission she is tasked with, allowing her to carry large amounts of cargo or passengers, deploy surface or orbital bases, launch fighter squadrons or more.
The Grey Area
Another ship siezed from Ferrik Redthane, this one was the late pirate’s flagship. She is a converted Far Trader, mounting shields and improved weapons and with a patchwork of armour affixed to her hull. She was renamed from the Janel Torsk to better reflect the moral ambiguity of her new mission.
The Shinkiro
This sleek, stealthy, 200-ton smuggling vessel is the vessel of the Black Ops crew. Her name, meaning “mirage”, reflects the misleading and elusive nature of both the ship and her crew
The Slightly Bent
The Slightly Bent (formerly the Lamprey), along with the Seskehalen, launched an ambush on the So Much for Subtlety in the skies above Sink. A close-run fight could have gone either way, but a lucky disabling shot and the gradually-accumulating effects of radiation from the So Much For Subtlety’s particle accelerator combined to turn the tide, and the mercenary cruiser was taken by the Drinaxian ship.
A 300-ton mercenary cruiser capable of carrying a dozen marines, the Slightly Bent bears a deadly pulse laser barbette but had not yet finished her conversion from an earlier, less piratical configuration: she still has missile storage in her magazine.
