Subject: Re: Imperial Craft Type Codes
I could probably recreate most of the codes from the examples given. Some of these thing are design system specific. Do you know which design system this was for? Not for High Guard obviously. Tjoneslo 21:09, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

I handwaved those examples to show most of the features, I might add some more to light the remaining ;)

The ISP is not really system specific. One can describe a CT, MT, TNE or T4 ship with it, as it doesnt tell anything specific about combat value, cargo, crew or passengers. The email was in the mids of TNE to T4 migration, to define the early imperial ship profile. I think, it was for T4, but I dont know if it was published sometimes later. We should link HG and BR here, because the will give values that are ready for a board game. The ISP was more though as a way to express ship class, mission and performance for the scout service for role playing terms. --Kraehe 17:29, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
