| − | <pre>Description
| |
| − | Manufacturing Faction: Pirates
| |
| − | Role Summary: Salvage and Piracy (Transport and Fighter)
| |
| − | Combat Behavior: Quick reverse, tractor capabilities, and the ability to hold ships in its bay
| |
| − | Known Major Variants: Crayfish
| |
| − | Role Summary (Salvage): Seizing spaceborn objects and transorting them
| |
| − | Combat Behavior (Piracy): Used to target, disable, and tractor small craft found in its space
| |
| − | visual field. Lacks appropriate fixed weaponry for heavy engagements, and appropriate
| |
| − | ordinance for assault duties.
| |
| − | Tenure of Service: Recent
| |
| − | Utilization: Merchant's Guild, and Pirates.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | Role Details (Standard):
| |
| − | Salvaging is its primary role. Why attack vessels when you can merely take goods found at
| |
| − | battle sites?
| |
| − | Role Details (Piracy):
| |
| − | This ship is capable of taking small ships, whole, into its bay. It can only tractor one at
| |
| − | a time and thus is vulnerable to attack from multiple ships. It was retofitted with EMP
| |
| − | weapons in order to disable crafts before they are seized.
| |
| − | Comments:
| |
| − | The Crayfish is notably weak, being incapable of housing other weapons in its turrets. INTEL
| |
| − | has heard rumers of another larger vessel known as the Lobter that is capable of much more. One
| |
| − | witness stated that the prototype has the capability of tractoring cargo out of a moving ship and
| |
| − | possibly housing more weapons in its turrets. This witness also stated that the
| |
| − | second prototype was supposed to have electronic transmitters capable of starting the crew's
| |
| − | ejection sequence.<pre>
| |
| − | ----
| |
| − | <pre> The Crayfish should have two turrets, starboard and
| |
| − | portside. These will need to be armed with an instant lock
| |
| − | capable tractor beam that is also capable of wide sweeps.
| |
| − | The turrets should resemble pincers on a thorax. The thorax
| |
| − | would be the hold/storage bay. The tail of the Crayfish would
| |
| − | be a scoop for redirecting propulsion.
| |
| − | Skin would be a dark green fading into rusty patches around
| |
| − | seams.
| |

| − | == Description ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | ----
| |
| − | <pre> The Crayfish is a lightly armed salvage vessel. Its only weapons are
| |
| − | pincers(wide swath (and large depth of field))tractor beams that are used to
| |
| − | stow floatsome (and nearby enemy ships) in its cavernous hold) and the EMP
| |
| − | it produces to propel itself backward.
| |
| − | The Crayfish must use fuel to produce the backflicking reflex that is used
| |
| − | to dissable enemy vessels while dodging their fire.<pre>
