Confederation Navy: Smallcraft Designations


Medium - the sweetspot for Confederation Navy smallcraft, smaller than an Imperium pinnace, larger than a ship's boat, convenient size for docking and hangars


Light - half size of the medium, theoretically allowing two in the same docking space, sort of equivalent of a gig or a launch

Superlight - keeping with the theme, half size of the light smallcraft, to move around small groups and cargoes


Heavy - it would have been fifty tonnes, but considering the emphasis on smallcraft piloting, more likely going for extra agility, in lieu of a two percent increase in volume

Superheavy - in theory, you could store two mediums in a docking space for a superheavy hull, but used principally as a cargo or weapons pod for a medium smallcraft, since there is an agility penalty, and in the transportation role, you don't need three firmpoints, nor a six tonne bridge; however, careful examination of the rules did allow one widespread exception, various Marks of the Swordfish class


Ultralight - I would have gone with four and three eighths tonnes, but the rules say that the minimum is five tonnes, so anything that can be fitted inside, and could still be propelled

Ultraheavy - at the other end of the scale, and still be considered a smallcraft, can't think it would be used as anything other than the primary hull for pseudo bigcraft

Confederation Navy: Smallcraft Designations


Medium - standard medium fighter


Light - boat or launch, could depend on acceleration

Superlight - gig, which would fit in with a gig economy


Heavy - tempting for a clean hundred tonne payload hull, but can shift that to ultraheavy transporter

Superheavy - Swordfish class studded ironclad torpedo bomber


Ultralight - I'm going to have to go with the Spud class studded ironclad point defence fighter

Ultraheavy - you attach components, without compromising the smallcraft category, exception being integrated components, specifically drop tanks, but not podularization
