Cargo
One of the primary features of a starship is its ability to store and transport cargo. This capacity accounts for everything not directly mounted to the ship, such as consumables, extra fuel, and personnel.
Cargo Capacity
Each ship comes with a capacity for a certain amount of cargo, depending on its size, as shown below in the Starship Size Cargo Capacity table.
Starship Size Cargo Capacity
| Starship Size | Cargo Capacity |
|---|---|
| Tiny | — |
| Small | 2 tons |
| Medium | 25 tons |
| Starship Size | Cargo Capacity |
|---|---|
| Large | 500 tons |
| Huge | 10,000 tons |
| Gargantuan | 200,000 tons |
Variant: Cargo, cargo everywhere
If you want to add more realism to your ship's cargo capacity, consider this additional rule in your games. Every suite modification that does not explicitly grant cargo in it's text, grants an amount of cargo capacity, depending on the ship's size, equal to 1/5 the amount shown in the Starship Size Cargo Capacity table. However, the suite becomes unusable for its purpose if filled beyond 1/25 of the amount shown in the table.
