Hey, contemplating doing a mini/side-campaign where the PCs are free traders. Trying to think what would be a cool ship for them. The TAS designs and the FASA designs don’t inspire me. I kind of think it should be bigger than the Millennium Falcon or Serenity. This is Star Trek.
1. Romulan Bird of Prey - a kickass design, and I don’t expect to be running a Romulan campaign at any point. And it has blueprints. Not very trader-ish, though; definitely has a military submarine feel.
2. Federation Ptolemy-class Transport/Tug - great Franz Joseph design that I am not otherwise using (not heroic enough for my main Starfleet campaign)
3. Federation Anton-class Light Cruiser - similar to the above (it’s TWOK’s Reliant TOS-icized), not sure which I like better
In each of the above situations, the PCs would have to be pirates or mutineers, right? The Romulans nor the Federation would sell their ships, even their junkers, would they?
4. Kzinti Police Cruiser - okay, I lied, there is a TAS design I like. I kept thinking, if they’re going to be pirates, why not Orion Pirates? But the Orion designs (TAS, SFU, FASA, TOS-R) are not to my liking. I was just imagining “Traitor’s Claw”, so, maybe I’ll go with that. Let the players pick their own color scheme.
Hmm…
