Date: Tue, 09 Jan 1996 18:05:29 -0500 (EST) From: Alvin Plummer Subject: TL F Starburst Light Cruiser NOTE: the Starburst was known as the SEH (Starburst for Extreme Heroism) in Mega Trav. The Starburst is a common TL F light cruiser, often seen in regions that don't require heavy warship's. Rather undistinguished, the vessel is most commonly seen on patrol, but can aquit itself fairly well against other light cruisers. Ship's in this class are named after reciepients of the SEH. Excepting sixe, the Starburst closely resembled the Planet-class heavy cruisers. *****-----***** Brilliant Lances Statistic's TL F Starburst Light Cruiser Disp 25 000 Armour 500 Len 236.5 m Volume 350 000 kl Price 16 821.761 MCr Target L Config Slab SL Tech F Mass 242 800/227 065 Power Plant Fusion 86 000 MW, 1 yr duration (300 MW/Hit, 47 MW shortfall) Jump 3 (70 000 kl of fuel) G-rating 6 (12 100 MW/G) G-turns 44.8 G-hours (67.9 G-hrs w/jfuel), 3 022 kl each Maint 7442 Computer 3 x TL F fb (1.1 MW ea) Commo 3 x Radio 1000 AU (20.0 MW ea) 3 x Laser 1000 AU ( .3 MW ea) 3 x Maser 1000 AU ( .6 MW ea) 1 x Meson 10 hex ( 3.0 MW) Avionics TL A+ Sensors 3 x P-EMS folding ( 8 hex, .3 MW ea) 3 x A-EMS (16 hex, 25.0 MW ea) 10 x Ladar (10 hes, 2.5 MW ea) ECM/ECCM 3 x A-EMS jammer (16 hex, 50.0 MW ea) EM Masking (350 MW) Controls Bridge x 241, Engineer x 573 Offensive TL F 20 000 Mj Spinal Meson, -2 Dif (Loc: Spinal, Arc:1, 5 556 MW, 94 Crew) Defensive 100 MW TL F Meson Screen (PV:400, Crew 3) At Loc: 1 4 x Missile Barbettes ( .15 MW, 0 Crew* ea) 12 x TL F 150 Mj Laset Turrent, -2 Diff (Arc: 1-2, 42 Mw, 0 Crew* ea) 12 x TL F Sandcasters (Arc: 1-2, 1 MW, 1 Crew ea, 2D10x5 per hit, 50 C) 6 x TL F N.
