Yes its another set of deck plans. The Skip Chaser was created using the Galactic Tracer starship construction rules in Rifter 34. Read all about it here.

Another worthy addition to my hardcopy files... :D

The Armies and Works that you hold Dear,
Are to him but the Playthings of the Moment,
To be turned over with the Flick of a Finger,
And the Turning of a Page"

Tell me do you have stats and/or larger pictures of the small craft (like those wicked little wings in #12) ?

or are those Escape Pods ?

Those would be escape pods. I could make up some stats if you want, but no I don't have any. Those and the vehicles in the vehicle bay are some of the symbols you get with CC3. The escape pod came with cosmographer and the APC I think I downloaded right from profantasy. Its cool, cause people make stuff and submit it. Profantasy then makes its available to the public. For those of you who are interested you can still download the maps and the free viewer without having to buy the CC3 software.

Free printer and viewer for CC3 maps

Free maps and symbols

The last link is why I like CC3. I can download the maps and tweak them in CC3. For a while I downloaded maps and picked them apart to see how some of the maps were drawn.

That's why I post'em. If you can use them in a game even cooler.

If any if you guys have requests on the existing maps I can tweak them. It might take me a few days, but I'd be willing.

Very nice Carl! It looks AWESOME!!!

"My Lady," the protector of Grayson told his Champion, "I do not wish him to leave this chamber alive."

Again, Nice job!

And again... a few suggestion:

1, The turrets could have a better field of fire if placed on the bow section (it bulges out).
2, How do you reload the missile launcher?

3,I guess there must be a way to move heavy stuff from area 2 to area 5, then from
area 5 to 7 and maybe from 2 to 10. Maybe it is just easy to remove floor panels and there
are rails and hardpoints on the ceiling for crane crabs.

Adios

But still, one of the most basic rules for survival on any planet is never to upset someone wearing black leather - This is why protesters against the wearing of animal skins by humans unaccountably fail to throw their paint over Hell's Angels.

Also, placing all combat crew close to each other raises morale.

KLM I think you forgot to post something on your last post. You quoted and didn't say a thing. :?

LOL There is nothing but the quote in your other post. I thought it was missing your wisdom. I don't see anything but the quote there.
"Your Grace," she said, "I have only one question. Do you wish this man crippled or dead?"

"My Lady," the protector of Grayson told his Champion, "I do not wish him to leave this chamber alive."

Now that makes sense. I hope Carl will continue posting his new ships.
