This category is for Capital Class Ships (CCS), which are Naval Battle Class Ships (BCS) of the largest size tier (100 kton - 240 kton). [1]


Ship Classification by Size
# Type Tonnage Remarks
1. Battle Class Ships (BCS)
Capital Class Ships (CCS) 		2,500 tons
-
250 ktons 		Battle Class Ships are warships and comprise both smaller Capital Primary Warships as well as Subcapital Secondary Warships that include Cruisers & Fleet Escorts.
  • Civilian corporate concerns may use the term Bulk Class Ships for vessels they field in this size category.
  • Such ships require major investment and only service major roles including megacorporate interstellar trade, warships, Capital Ships, and major endeavors.
» "Subcapital Ships": Escort Cruisers: Provincial/Colonial Cruisers; Heavy System Defense Boats
  • Small Battle Class 2 ("Light" BCS): 2,500-ton - 10-kton
» "Subcapital Ships": Fleet Escorts; System Defense Cruisers
  • "Standard'" Battle Class ("Standard" BCS): 10-kton - 100-kton
» "Subcapital Ships": Cruisers (Fleet & Independent); System Dominance Vessels; System Monitors
» "Light & Standard Capital Ships / Battleships"; "Supermonitors"
* Capital Class Ships (CCS) 100 ktons
-
250 ktons 		The Higher End of Battle Class Ships and the Lower End of Fleet Class Ships (100,000 - 250,000 tons) have had varying categorizations to various commentators. The category is generally seen to overlap both, depending upon one's chosen definition of Battle Class and Fleet Class. [2]
2. Capital Class Ships (CCS)
Fleet Class Ships (FCS) 		100 ktons
-
1 Mton 		Fleet Class Ships are Capital Primary Warships.
  • Such ships require major investment and only service major roles including major megacorporate interstellar trade and capital projects, Heavy Capital Warships, and other similar major endeavors.
  1. ↑ T5.10 Book 2, p.31 defines the BCS range as 2,500 tons - 100 ktons and the FCS range as > 100 ktons, whereas the MgT2 Starship Operators Manual, p.6 defines the BCS range as 2,500 tons - 250 ktons and the FCS range as 250 ktons - 1 Mton. The Capital Class (CCS) range is introduced here to define the overlap (100 ktons - 250 ktons). - WHULorigan
