Vehicle Size

Vehicles use a size scale that is different from normal combat. "Medium in vehicle terms is a different size than "medium" in personal combat terms. However, the overall scale is the same; vehicle sizes line up 1-to-1 with personal combat sizes, so in cases of both vehicles and humanoids being in the same combat, it is possible to resolve relative sizes.

    • Any ship dedicated to passenger transport is a "shuttle", or "ferry" if also hauling significant cargo and/or smaller vehicles.
    • Pleasure craft up to size 6 are known as "yachts", and above 6 are known as "liners".
    • Any ship with its own jump drive is usually prefixed with "jump", such as "jump freighter".
