Star League WarShips, but SMOL!

[Liam's Ghost]

Backstory: For those who don't know, the massive cargo holds seen on some star league ships were essentially an out of universe accident. More accurately, the stats for these ships were originally written without rules, and the later construction rules first published in battlespace had to be written around them. When this meant ships like the hilariously overgunned Black Lion alongside ships like the Soyuz or Congress, that meant the latter ships ended up with massive massive cargo holds.

So anyway, I took the most egregious examples of this phenomenon and shrank them down as much as possible, changing none of the game impacting stats except their tonnage and their cargo capacity. The results are below.

(and yes, I know there is a compelling often suggested justification for Star League ships to carry so much cargo, but that's not what this is about. This is for fun)

Those are MUCH more reasonable tonnages! :)

For fun, three of the last five original Star League WarShips, likewise shrunk down following the same parameters. Sirs not-appearing-in-this-post are the Bugeye and Potemkin. The Bugeye because there's not really anywhere left to go, and the Potemkin because it's a transport. It's supposed to have all that cargo space.

These really demonstrate the limitations faced. The Aegis ended up only slightly smaller than the shrunken Cameron, and even then the remaining cargo space is criminally low. The Black Lion's limit was surprisingly its armor type and amount. If one were to switch it to lamellor ferro carbide, you could get it down to 620,000 tons comfortably. The McKenna could have been shrunk down smaller than a Texas, but instead I opted to let it actually have some cargo capacity.

Those are MUCH more reasonable tonnages! :)

The Cameron and the Soyuz would cause continuity fits with the other ships. It's basically impossible to make the Black Lion smaller than their shrunken versions without much more radical changes, and it's supposed to be the smallest of the three.

But if Fasa had rolled out the Essex, Vincent, and Lola in these forms back in the day, or even retconned them to this state during the publication of battlespace, I don't think most would have batted an eye.

[Daryk]

Agreed on all accounts, good sir! :)
