Card pack

The ships presented here are intended to represent abstractions of dozens of different (but similar) designs in use by all fleets for a variety of functions. Form follows function, and as these ships (for the most part) are cargo haulers, they can functionally be divided into these types. Outwardly, the various "Class-One Small Freighters" may look very different, but their ship rosters would be nearly identical. After all, a cargo ship needs cargo, enough engines to move them at a steady, economical speed, a big enough hull to contain the crew, perhaps a phaser or two for self-defense, and whatever tractor beams and transporters are needed to facilitate cargo handling.

All of these ships might be owned by a civilian crew or corporation, or by a government at any level.

This ship roster card pack contains: Class-One small freighter, Class-Two large freighter, Class-Three jumbo freighter, Free Trader transport, armed priority transport, Class-Four heavy freighter, armed cutter (class-1 phaser), and Prime Trader transport (one using a phaser 1; the other, a phaser 2).

You must have A Call to Arms: Star Fleet Book 1, Revision 2 in order to use these cards.
