I think that picture of the Slave Liner in the link is a bit out of date, not the model which was actually submitted (or not the complete model).. And, from what I hear, it's gonna be frickin' huge. Larger than the Lux Liner.
The slave liner is the length of a prison / lux liner but it is a bit wider and very tall. It has a heck of a broadside making it a dream to any crosseyed bomber pilots, but the armor is quite high to compensate.
The current info card that was submitted for it but not yet added (So changes can be made) reads like this:
Quote:DSE TTR - 7460 series "Pilgrim" General Utility Liner
During the 5rd and 6th ceturies utility transports such as the DSE TTR series were the workhorses of sirius. These less then glamorous ships transported colonists between house controled system before the trade lane network or jump gates were even in the planing stages. As new transportation technologies started to make the long trek between star systems in normal space unessary the utility liners gave way to smaller, more efficent and specialized vessels.
Most of the old utility liners have long since been broken for scrap, but a forgoten few have survived out in the scrap fields present in every industrialized section of house space. With the prices of vessel manufacting on the rise many fringe and offten desperate groups have resorted to slavaging the few remaining Pilgrims to fullfil roles as cheap forward supply bases or as transports for refugee’s and slavers.
I think that the slave liner can fullfill your needs von Gotteshand, it may not have the exact look but it was created with the same backstory in mind.
@Linkus: I actually like your junkerfication of the standard liners, but I am still unsure about the need for many unlawful liners. I am all for pirates using converted civillian craft such as frieghters and liners, but we really don't need to flood that particular market. With each new ship balancing gets harder and harder, and I am sure Mjolnir is bald by now.
Now we just need the Junker IDs modified to allow the 'Utility Liner'. At the moment the only IDs who could use it would be Slaver, a few corporations, and I think the Order and Researcher IDs. As written it sounds perfect for Junkers, even if those Junkers don't carry slaves.
