Kinunir-class Battle Frigate

[Jame Rowe]

You wouldn't be creating ship-sized versions of the programs, you would be using the ship's computer to run these personal programs to replace crew positions.

I figure the an Expert/Astrogation with your Jump Control program is the equivalent to GENERATE in CT.

Now that you and Golan "expertly" :wink: point that out, I understand.

Don't mind my bumping this to remind myself to post the updated version, and the hyperdrive version, here when I get the chance. (I'd post my version of the crew from the CT Adventure 1 but that's likely illegal.)

Lookin' Good!

 

[Jame Rowe]

I think that there's a carrier-frigate version of the hyperdrive model, but it requires reducing the Marine contingent to one squad plus a Force Ensign (Lieutenant Lower Grade) in order to make room for the crew for the fighters, which will be 20 tonners.

I was poking through the forum for MongTrav-based Kinunir redesigns and just noticed this.

9 Variable Range Accurate Beam Lasers: 9 MCr

No can do. Both Variable Range and Accurate upgrades each require two upgrade "slots" totaling 4 upgrades. Per High Guard, only three upgrade slots per upgraded system is allowed. Other than that, very nice redesign and one I'm looking at using for my MongTrav campaigns.

Maybe that is one of the reasons the AI lost it. Too much for it to handle.

Ohh! I see what happened..the design looks to be based on the first printing of High Guard. The errata on that printing limits the number of upgrade slots but the initial printing did not. Makes sense now.

Edit: Technically, High Guard limits the number of upgrades by stating further advancement either becomes "..outmoded or further improvement becomes too difficult to be cost–effective." I suppose if someone really wants to put the money into the research (like the Darrians did with their torpedoes), then more upgrades would be available. I started a previous thread on this some months ago. Such research would be very expensive and likely limited only to large governments.

I would handwave it and say that's what happened: they did the research. The Imperium is a large government, after all...

Glad you like it! Happy to see it in use.
