OSR Review & Commentary On Independence Games Contessa Class Fast Trader By Michael Johnson For The Clement Sector rpg

 

Out in the midst of the frontier of the Clement sector, there are times when you need a dual roled star ship and that starship is the Contessa class Fast Trader. 
This is an award winning Anderson & Felix class ship 600 ton  starship that competes with Borne's Thorpe class vessels. 
The Contessa Class Fast Trader is a mean ship able to take full advantage of the latest offerings in technology and design. The Provision class is a sqaudron support class vessel that accompanies a fleet as a logistics support vechicle. While the Einsatz class is a forward deployment ship with two platoons of Hub Fedration or Cammando marines along with equipment, vechicles, etcs that can be deployed at a moment's notice.  This is an adventurer's vessel though make no mistake about that. 



The Contessa class Fast Trader  fufills these roles and more because in this book's fifty three pages we get the complete history, roles, variants, and solid plans or diagrams of these vessels. This is a well written supplement with Michael Johnson getting into the meat of this vessel. The layout, fonts, artwork and more in this book are very well done. They fit the temper and rigor of the Clement sector. The Contessa class Fast Trader  is a vessel that fills a number of roles within the Clement sector and the frontier. The adventurers may not want to encounter those vessels however! They have teeth and can destroy even an experienced set of Clement sector spacers..  I really like the artwork that Ian Stead (Cover ,p.2,4,13-16,26,27,38-40); Michael Johnson (p.9,12,19-24,30-35,44-49);&  Bradley Warnes (p.11,38) brings to the table with the Contessa. 

The Contessa Class  Fast Trader is a bold and dangerous trade vessel that can open up lots of opportunity for experienced spacers. This is a vessel that will take adventurers into a whole other level of trade and spacer style company trade houses. And this is because the vessel is a whole cloth starcraft that will work hard for the party. This is one of the roles that this vessel fills in spades. Get the  Contessa class Fast Trader  if your looking for a hard working and
