There are a lot of great ships in Traveller.  Which would you like to see added to the card game?

Re: Future ships?
The three I think are very appropriate are the Kinunir, the tigress, and the hammer class, from Robert Pierce's just another Traveller blog site

Re: Future ships?
I'd go for the classic, patrol cruiser, safari ship and lab ship. Keeps within the 100-400 t class ships, and are all the types the average group games in. For me it would link in with RPG use more then. Maybe at a stretch the corsair next. As the basic game ships are all 100-400 t cargo ships it's a big jump to go beyond that tonnage and go too military. Don't want too many ships that are just  
  platforms.

I think the Broadsword is the largest ship we'll ever release as a captain's ship, but certainly larger vessels could appear as other kinds of cards.Devinedesigns12 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 18, 2018 6:50 pmThe three I think are very appropriate are the Kinunir, the tigress, and the hammer class, from Robert Pierce's just another Traveller blog site

Re: Future ships?
I'll echo the 100 - 400 Ton class thought, that is where most "Travelling" happens.  The yacht might only work with a Noble card, but it opens a lot of adventures closed to other ships.  Warships are fun, but a Broadsword or Patrol Cruiser are limited in where and what in a non military scenario.  Some modified Type S cards could be a fun spin off, seeker, etc.  Or hey, Cutter Modules!  That's a science and art all in and of itself................ 
			Re: Future ships?
The Corsair is at the top of the 100-400 ton limit and would tend to be more militant. If it was brought into the game, there should be more ways a "pirate" could get
