1/ droid wars. Fight by proxy. 2/ for damage receiving purposes only multiply their relevant characteristics by 2 or more 3/ allow them armour against low TL locals who will have a hard time piercing it. 4/ give them a goa'uld sarcophagus from Stargate SG-1 so they can be revived.

In 4 hours and 6 minutes if it indeed launches.

Depends what is more important, making sure the prisoners don't take over the ship or the lives/comfort/security of the prisoners.

I'd make it modular. The prison section a module loaded before being picked up by the ship. No access to the module (or from it) while on the ship - none at all. Monitored electronically and with the ability to eject (with no power source) the module in case of insurrection aboard.

Let loose the Hounds of War.

Might be time for a House Rule distinguishing a hanger for a space craft and a garage for a non space craft. Make the price lower, for example .05 MCr/ton or even lower at .01 MCr/ton for non grav vehicles. The Garage won't open to space (if it does you might impose a repair cost for all the...

Or it could be mining Trojan asteroids of a gas giant or minor moons of such a giant rather than an asteroid belt. Even mining a ring system.

I recall at least one 6 million dollar man episode with a psychic.

Directional radiation away from likely detectors would be needed for stealth against an enemy equipped to detect stealth. Civilian systems probably would be unequipped to detect stealth vessels by default. But stealth is part of the game so it must be assumed that even though unspecified...

Unless the line maintained the modules at every site then the pirates would just ignore the ship when it launched from its site with the modules, the only place they could be fitted with one as every other place the informants could tell them they loaded cargo or not. This is much more...

I wouldn't think that likely to be useful in space warfare. A intercept course (even one coming from behind) is unlikely to follow on the same path you did and the mine would immediately be drifting off that course.

It may well also be directional (I'd expect it to be). If it is not aimed at the planet or a off planet sensor it would be missed.

I meant with the dampers being used in ship to ship battles where they are at close or even adjacent ranges.

Any close approach to a nuclear armed ship with nuclear dampers would neutralize their weapons AND that includes their own use of nuclear dampers. Also knocks out any fission power plants until refuelled.

Put a holograph over them or a hull shape shift that exposes them when needed (like the nacelles on a Puddle Jumper).
