Trader RP crew members

[sgrana]

from the numbers that i found from ww2 civ / military and now civ / military, military vessels have 3 to 4 times the amount of crew as a civilian vessel. Most of the crew differential is because a military vessels weapons as well as damage control parties, with a smaller percentage going to security/boarding functions.

So 4 watches on a vessel for a 24 hour period you would need a minimum of four watch, nav, weapon, com, engineering, support officers. Depending on ship size the number would go up dramatically, of course that would be a house military vessel depenging upon computer and robot support. Other military vessels would probably differ widely because of increased military support as well as economic reasons.
