====== Pluto-Class Missile-Boat======

===== 1. About the Ship =====
Designed around 130 years ago, the Pluto-class was the first ship to have effective energy shielding. It was used at the end of the Rim-world rebellions to help seek out and crush the last vestiges of the rebels. Now it is being called back into duty to replace the Terran forces lost in the Battle of Terra IV.
===== 2. History and Background =====
An inventor named Istvan Plutanovicz created the first Practical energy shielding, capable of blocking both energy and solid weaponry. Tho use his design, a new class of ship was made specifically to carry and utilize the system to it's fullest extent.

===== 5. Inside the Ship =====
==== Deck Layout ====
five fairly standard decks, the top two containing bunks, the bottommost containing storage, and the middle two containing the bridge and engineering, plus access to the weapons
==== Compartment Layouts ====
crew compartments are normal bunk rooms, built for two people each.
=== Armory ===
The armory is on the top deck, near the airlock.
=== Bridge ===
The bridge is a cramped room heaped with equipment and work stations.
=== Captain's Suite ===

=== Cargo Storage Areas ===
The bottom level is a huge cargo storage area
=== Crew Recreation ===
Each of the two bunk levels have weight rooms and a mini firing range
=== Engineering ===
There are numerous engineering rooms throughout the ship, most on the two weapons levels
=== Maintenance Conduits ===
These snake their way through every part of the ship. a very small person is needed to get through them.
=== Medical Center and Laboratory ===
Also near the airlock, the medical center is small, but well-stocked and capable of any surgery any other terran ship is capable of.
=== Passageways ===
5' wide by 15' tall.

===== 6. Ship Systems =====
==== Armored Hull and Hull Integrated Systems ====
The armor is made of a titanium alloy
==== Computers and Electronics ====
These ships have been upgraded and retrofitted throughout their lives and have varios computer systems, all up to code with Terran standards, however.
==== Emergency Systems ====
Corridors are capable of being sealed for hull breaches, and to isolate intruders and poison them.
==== Life Support Systems ====
these ships have been retrofitted with various life support systems, all up to terran standards
==== Propulsion ====
Most run on antiquated Ion drives, that are however efficient, if slow.

Small warp drives have been added to these, giving them a mean average of 25 LY/min warp speed. some are faster, some are slower.
====Power supply====
Power supply varies, but can include Fusion, antimatter, Rosenium, and sometimes more exotic fuels.
==== Shield Systems ====
They use Plutanovicz Shield systems, a basic system capable of blocking both Beam and projectile weaponry.
==== Weapons Systems ====
Each Pluto class has 60 missile/torpedo/countermeasure tubes, plus an Ion-cannon turret for defense against fighters.
=== Main Weapons ===
60 Missile tubes
