BARGE

[St.Denis]

Barges for Sale

Now is the time to own a bit of nostalgia.

The Staff has decided to put the Barge on the open market.

Seeing as the price is a staggering 150 million (150,000,000) credits. It will require the Admins to give you it and remove the cost of it from your Banks.

We will accept the cost of it in credits and/or Science Data (SD will be deemed to be 30,000 credits per unit).

You will need to make a Restart Ship with the required ID.

Use the following Template in a Player's Request to obtain one:

Code:

[b]Request for a Barge[/b]

[b]1. Name of your Ship to be transformed in to a Barge:[/b]

Barge Information

Designed and manufactured to serve in dark corners of space where the closest friendly base is but a memory; the Barge is a mobile factory, station and refinery designed to operate independently of external support.

Staggering operational and manufacturing costs prevent vessels of this type from being used for any but the most specific and urgent need, as its sheer bulk of size and intense jump hole destabilizing gravity well prevents it from being utilized in any environment but deep space.
