The Lord Somerset class Subsidized Liner is a TL–12 passenger Liner.

Description (Specifications)[edit]

The 600 ton Type M Subsidized Liner is primarily a passenger vessel, though the large (129 tons) cargo capacity is also useful and important The Lord Somerset-class is a particularly popular version of this type of ship; and features lush accommodations for passengers. It is an unstreamlined, orbit-to orbit ship.

The forward, saucer-shaped hull contains the ship's lounge which includes dining and bar facilities. Collapsible walls allow the area to be opened up or divided into separate areas for use as a casino, dance floor, or private party.

The liner's jump and power plant mechanisms fill three identical decks which rise in a superstructure aft. All three decks are identical, connected by access hatches. Fuel is similarly carried in sections below the lower cargo deck.

Bridge and engineering crewmen are quartered in the central hub, while stewards (and gunners, if any) are quartered in the passenger area. Turrets, if installed, are mounted directly over the bridge (a ladder would be installed between the computer and avionics section) below the saucer (accessible from the bar/galley area) and aft, below the lower cargo deck. As turrets are rarely found on such ships, however, they are not shown on the plans.

The central part of the ship, containing the bridge and crew quarters, is separate from the rest of the ship, accessable only through the iris valve in the reception area, and up a flith of stairs. The cargo deck is located directly below this center deck and is reached through the crew lounge.

There are two cargo decks: the upper one long and narrow, the lower one a square located all the way aft. The ship's 20ton launch is mounted forward of the lower cargo deck; a cargo lift on the upper cargo deck connects with the launch's cargo bay while a passenger lift connects to the passenger access section of the launch.
