Subject: APDs, LSD's and LPAs
After flipping through a book at borders this weekend and seeing a
section in it on Fast Transports from WWII, I decided to convert a
Ticonderoga figure.
I snipped a bit of material off the side and added a larger boxy bit of
metal that came with the wings and things set. Now the question.
With the Fleet Book as a basis, what do people use for a figure/factor
when calulating Troop/Storage compliment?. Just what was in MT? or
something else?
If I use MT, then I can up the mass to 38, drop the hull integrity to
weak, drop the firecon and beam weapons, add a ortillery system and
create a 3 capacity passenger accomodation and 5 capacity bay.
Netting 150 Crysleep Marines
2 mass 2 Assault landers, carrying 20 troops each
1 mass 1 Ships boat (unless that should be free?), carrying 10 troops
each.
Does this seem reasonable for an APD?
