Default Re: VG1 Busnought Stats : Wrong Cost and Weight ?

The Busnought first appeared in SJG 7103 Truckstop. In that version "Luxurious Passenger Accommodation" was $500, 3 spaces and 200lb per passenger (in the Personnel paragraph of Buses and RV design section). It also made it into the B&W Delux edition (P38). This option never made it into the compendiums.

The original design also specified 9 spaces were available for cargo* which equally didn't make it into the later descriptions.

Include these and it all adds up.

*With only 10lb weight left this would need to be packing peanuts or maybe it is empty space for a dance floor or something - in reality of course the 40ft bus is not very weight efficient as it is designed to have a lot of empty space for passengers to move around. Try to fill that with 2-500lb per space components and you will soon overload it. I normally pare back on the vehicle armour and add 10pts CA for each passenger (or dual seat).
