The Chatl class Leader Scout is a TL–14 Courier.
Description[edit]
It is a vessel with 3-G and J-5 performance with a streamlined hull. This is a typical dispatch "courier" ship, analogous to an X-Boat. At TL–14 you have a maximum of Jump-5 which limits your range. This design carries enough for a single jump, it has fuel scoops for ocean refueling but no fuel refinery. It serves the Zhodani Navy.
It has a crew of two. There is a single stateroom for the pilot and gunner to share.
Adapted by the Zhodani Navy from the basic design of their 150-ton courier, the Chatl-class leader scout is intended to transfer senior naval officers and orders to where they are most needed. Though the ship carries out its duties effectively, use of the leader scout is risky at best. Vulnerable to attack even by small ships, the leader scout's survival depends on avoiding rather than defeating the enemy. The armored hull and sandcaster provide more psychological comfort than actual protection in serious encounters.
Modest but comfortable staterooms are provided for passengers; usually an admiral or other senior officer and his staff or personal attendants. Crew quarters are more cramped but still reasonably comfortable. Though the leader scout is flawed and few ships have actually been put into service, the leader scout is an excellent answer to the ever-present problems of control and coordination in the face of great distances and lack of personnel which plague most star-going navies.
General Description & Deck Plans[edit]
The upper deck holds avionics gear in the needle-shaped bow, with a bridge and computer immediately aft. The galley and wardroom area is next aft, with the ship's locker and main airlock to port, simple cooking facilities to starboard, and access to the lower deck and aft to engineering spaces, with monitor consoles (used only for occasional examinations) located in convenient locations. A second airlock is located near the stern.
The lower deck contains two crew staterooms which share a head. A remote console allows operation of the sandcaster (located in the turret) by an off-watch crewman during emergencies and can be used from either cabin. A monitor console for the jump drive is also located on this deck.
History & Background[edit]
The Chatl class Leader Scout is a ship serving with the Zhodani Navy.
