[GURPS: Spaceships] Space Fleet

Diomedes · 09-14-2008, 10:15 PM

These ships were all built around the same tech assumptions, at TL11^.

They all have external fuel for reactors:

Code:

Reactor Type	Endurance per tank
			H2	H20


Fusion			72d	8d
	(derated)	144d	16d
Super Fusion		36d	4d
	(derated x1)	45d	5d
	(derated x2)	54d	6d
	(derated x3)	63d	7d

First, the battleship. An early design, and rather weak for her size.

Her small craft are here. Battlecruisers like the Carlsson are the reason you don't see to many battleships in the spaceways; she's a quarter the cost, but actually more powerful.

Another cruiser, this one built for speed. I made it partly to explore a different mission profile, but mostly to give the first one something to fight.

And if I'd kept my notes, I would remember which one won...
