This hull was found drifting in the Scree Fron system with an unknown history. Most likely the ship had been boarded by pirates and left adrift to its fate. Scavengers have stripped everything including most of the hull plating, leaving only the skeletal remains that you see here. Initially Shat Rat's intended to break it down into scrap until a title search divulged it was commissioned less than a decade ago, so being relatively new the salvage company decided to put it up for sale and see if there would be any bites first.

This vessel was recovered from an airless low-grav moon where it apparently landed for emergency repairs that were never performed. Scavengers have removed a lot of the equipment, leaving only the damaged laser battery and starboard drive (the port reactor housing is intact but the drive itself was removed). The RT-3100 is a simple craft to operate for those with novice skills and is a versatile ship that does most tasks well.

Trans Travel's TT6150 is a popular choice for independant haulers, designed in the early f.y. 40s the ship has been around for a while. As such it has been tried, tested, and found to be true. The overall design makes it optimum for a wide variety of roles beyond cargo hauling, a crew can make additional income via the trio of passenger cabins as well as offering courier duties to local governments. The deck arrangement is simple and straight forward, separating various duties efficiently enough. Many owners are quick to modify the basic design both during the construction phase or after acquisition. In fy:61, one such famous example dubbed the SS Gullwind made what has been historically referred to as "the Dramune Run", running an illegal cargo from Clarion to Inner Reach thus exposing a criminal organization which kicked off the third Dramune War.
Despite the severe damage, it won't take much to restore this vessel. Very little was taken by prior salvage operations before Shat Rat's found the craft drifting in deep space. According to Star Law this particular vessel served under various pirate owners for the majority of its 30 year liefspan. It is believed the Breakout was used by the Star Devils in taking the Serena Dawn although there is not much evidence to support the claim. If there is a downfall to purchasing this craft, it would be the potential criminal reputation that may follow the crew anywhere they travel.

The Overflow is a salvaged rat ship, that is to say it has already been salvaged once before and is awaiting its third attempt at life. It was a work in progress that ended up being sold back to Shat Rat's after the prior owners gave up on it. The ship is unique in the way of sporting a pair of massive C-class drives on a class:5 hull. It will take some engineering finesse to make them work, and even so they still need some lengthy work to run again. The final result should be awe inspiring but reliability could be questionable. As such the ship has been equipped with medium hull armor (of which the integrity permits the use of said drives) and several defensive systems which would otherwise seriously hamper the specified B drives, however if successful the oversized drives should be capable of improved acceleration compared to unladen B-class drives.
The cargo hold is equally unorthodox, with loading bays fore and aft on the port & starboard sides versus the conventional clam-shell bay doors that most freighters are equipped with. The ship is streamlined for atmospheric use, although most civilized worlds may not permit atomic powered craft to operate in their airspace. Nonetheless, the loading bays are a boon for manual cargo transfers when gravity is a factor as the ramps can extend down and out for ease in loading or remain upright/locked for zero-G operations. The hold currently contains a laser battery, two missile ICM launcher, subspace radio, radar unit, cargo arm, furnishings for the cabins, and the mainframe computer (all but the computer are salvaged items and in need of repair).
Special rule regarding the oversized drives: If the repair roll fails then the drive(s) can not be salvaged and replacements will have to be swapped over. Once functional drives are available, the engineer must roll 20% + 10%/skill level to allow proper functionality. The process can be repeated for each engineer in the group but only once per engineer and each attempt takes 2d10+5 days. Reliability is going to be an issue, if a breakdown occurs utilize half the drive age rounded down as a plus/minus buffer for drive breakdowns --- i.e. half of 45 rounded down = 22, with the drives being 45 years old and the next component is 32 years old a normal rat ship breakdown roll of 33-45 would result in drive issues, instead add plus or minus 22 to that roll meaning a roll of 10-67 results in the drive issue (see the Special Rules for Salvage Ships section for more details).

The SS Mynah was found drifting in the Laco system, most likely ransacked and hulked by pirates. Scavengers helped themselves to its carcass for some time before Shat-Rat's freighters discovered her drifting in deep space.
Her manufacture date extends back before the founding of the UPF, she's a vintage bird that once restored can certainly be the pride of the next owner. With no computer she's dead in the water, performance stats in parenthesis reflect current numbers assuming a replacement computer with necessary software is installed. See

Streel Shipbuilding designs and constructs these lower end freight haulers. Using a class:7 hull as a starting point, these freighters aren't designed for massive profits as the larger container vessels may reap, but rather their faster nature allows them to enjoy hauling cargoes that need to be there a little quicker than the big barges can travel. Also noteworthy is the extra heavy hull armor plating invoked, allowing the Timeon Clipper to absorb considerably more damage than larger craft can take. Further additions include a single laser battery to help ward off any of that damage.
Obviously anything this high in mass requires a little extra boost to propel it to standard performance levels. To this end Streel's own "Big Bang" line of class:B atomic drives offer superior thrust over the PGC "Eureka's" offered on the Pacific class freighters (eg: the SS Gullwind) with only marginally higher costs, and adding a third drive to the equation also helps retain stock ship performance. The improved efficiency of the Big Bangs along with the increased cargo capacity over the standard smaller freighters sized from class:3 to 6 hulls will maximize profit potential for those independant haulers and greater expansion potential for mid-sized firms with fleets of several ships.
These craft are meant to slip in to the market where larger craft could never operate, such as limited markets where a larger ship would burn up all the profits in her reaction chambers. Aforementioned smaller worlds no longer have to pay premium prices for goods hauled to them. With twice the room of smaller atmospheric capable haulers they will be able to flood the markets with thier own goods and take over the runs they are used on, leaving only the "absolutely positively has to be there right away" market to the smaller craft.
Few owners opt to ditch the single laser battery in favor of improved performance (thereby allowing MR:3), most freight captains enjoy some form of self defense when the nay-sayers show up looking for some free swag to lift. Massive amounts of hull integrity can go a long way in preventing unwanted boarders, but a battery weapon goes even further by adding an offense to an established defense.
*original stats & concept by Parriah
This vessel appeared in Basically Speaking, the online hosted game here at SFus. The Stothgard was used to kidnap a memgber of the Royal Family, the valiant crew of the CMS Falcon rushed in to overtake the craft and rescue the princess. Once the rescue was accomplished, the ship was subsequntly hulked and left to drift. Shat Rat's brought her home for a possible new life.

The UPFS Melinda McCoy fell victim to the events leading up to the Third Dramune War. She is a relic dating back to the First Sathar War and while most of the components had been updated since then, her hull is nearly 70 years old. She was the last functional model in her series. Shat Rat's was able to recover her before any other salvagers found the craft drifting in Dramune, although the UPF has dimilitarized it and purged all sensitive software and information so that it could be made available to the civilian resale market. As such there is room to expand the cargo hold (up to four units capacity at the reduction of two crew decks, thus leaving 9 double occupancy cabins and the passenger cabins). The asking price is high but considering the nostalgia and potential it is more than reasonable.

Hull plating
Component Age:
Hull - 36, treat as 18 years due to recent reinforcements
Computer, maneuver jets, and radio & radar - 36 years
Existing drives - new
Shat Rat's Salvage recently acquired this special project from Triad's SCC where it had been abandoned. The prior owner had redesigned the hull to accomodate six drives and an additional laser battery along with an expanded ventral hold. All of the original hull plating was stripped and the framework was reinforced for light hull armor. The final product would sport six drives, a pair of laser batteries (although the hull currently only accomodates one), an expanded hold, and militray grade assault scout performance. While the hull and computer are both 38 years old (the recent reinforcing takes ten years off the hull for game purposes), the trio of replacement drives are brand new. After the project passed the halfway mark the owner stopped making payments on the construction and summarily disappeared. Once it sat long enough the SCC put a lien on the vessel until finally they needed the space for paying customer. It was kicked into orbit and Shat Rat's was called to remove it.
The blueprints were included but the SCC repossessed the intended euipment that was not mounted, which included the remaining armor & hull plating, three drives, a pair of battery weapons, and the remaining under-belly framework among others. Nothing a Space Rat can't handle...
Note on remaining drives & hull plating --- if a single drive is installed on the starboard mount ADF will be 4, if three drives are added as intended ADF will be 6. Restoring the dorsal laser battery will not affect performance, however pod lasers or a second battery can be added at a -1 ADF penalty. As it stands the ship can operate with the current trio of drives but ADF will be 3 (the existing hull armor reduces perfromance by a factor of 2).
The remaining armor can be acquired through a military contractor at any Class:1 SCC for 200,000Cr along with an additional 50,000 fee, if the party opts out of this and utilizes basic hull plating for the remainder of the project then the hull points will be 22 instead of 24. The required amount of hull plating can be had for 25,000Cr or half of one hull size' worth of plating. Naturally Shat Rat's will transport the hull armor at their usual 10% rate.
