Ship File: Celeres Class Escort & The Frontiers of Darkness - Zozer Games Godstar & Independence Games Clement Sector rpg

 When it comes to hauling materials, supplies, etc across the frontiers of space especially within the Clement Sector. And now the Million Stars empire is experiencing military power and sheer weight of numbers  behind the  the Quick Ship File: Celeres Class Escort. And this blog entry  picks right up from here on the blog the other day. 

Why is the Celeres Class Escort. so damn important? Because it transformed the ability of the major houses within the Million Sun Empire ability toward cheap and cheerful commerce. And that means that the economic powerhouse of the Million stars empire returns. It's not simply one class of starship. 
But the fact that one class of starship can give way to a technological revolution in starship manufacturing. And this comes down to the description of the  Celeres Class Escort.. According to the copy of the Celeres; "The Celeres Class Escort, from The Horizon Green Gmbh Shipyards, is a capable 600 dton escort vessel, with 5G acceleration and Jump 2, intended to support larger cargo, colony, or bulk material haulers, as well as the shorter range passenger ships."

"It comes in two versions: fitted with 6 turrets: 3 x triple lasers, 2 x particle beam cannons and 1 x triple missile turret (or 1 x missile bay, and reduced cargo capacity, in the later model)." 
Remember that in the first part of the campaign we've had criminals, pirates, and renagade corporations taking full advantage of the opening of the 'Conduit' into & out of the Million Stars Empire. The arrival of the Celeres class escort goes back to the fact that the  opening of the wormhole gateways between Clement sector and the Million Stats Empire sets the stage for all kinds of missions for the Hub Federation Navy.

And the Celeres Class Escort is a  perfect star ship design to share between the Hub Navy and the Million Stars Empire. This is going to help cement relations between the Million Stars and the Clement sector. 

The jig is far from up for the criminals and lowlife corporations as well as the minor houses from the Million Stars. They are going to buy thier own versions of  the Celeres Class Escort through dumb corporations and star port militias. This was done by the Conferates during the American Civil War with weapons and munitions. 

Outlaw: Crime in Clement Sector Third Edition hits this idea quite nicely with a ton of options to bring into the Million Stars Empire. 

The exacution of a number of criminals by the Million Star empire is not going to stop the flow and influx of crime and underhanded activities. The frontier of the Clement Sector is going to see more of the type of piracy the Million Stars is used to as the flow of criminals goes both ways. 
The interstellar economy is going to dictate how and where the nefarious activity comes into the Clement sector. The Clement sector itself is bit interstellar civility on the outskirts of a very alien blackness. And it's going to need all of the friends it can get. The opening of the Conduit back into the Million Stars empire is a curse and blessing but mostly a blessing for now! The  Celeres Class Escort has all of the hallmarks of a great addition to this campaign. Solid lines, a great design, excellent line up with the Clement sector ships and much more. I'm really happy to have bought this one!
