Construction of a Salvage Frigate

[crimecities]

Alex Heartnet took one last look at the blueprints for her salvage frigate. She drew up the blueprints herself, copying parts from no one. This was going to be a real engineering challenge, far more then the home built fighter she made out of spare parts. Additionally, building one required a lot of materials - far more then a snub-class craft. After spending hours doing calculations, she came up with a list of what was needed.

After all the hard work, compiling a list, Alex went to the bar to get herself a drink.
