STANDARD FEATURES

• The Parting gift is equipped with all of the standard shields, engines and other systems expected of a ship of this type

ADVANCED SYSTEMS

• Luxurious and well equipped rooms
• Bar and entertainment facility
• Anti Ion Emission tracer
• Automated targeting systems for turrets
• Cloaking device
• ECM suite
• Hyperwave Inertial Momentum Sustainer
• Holonet relay
• Magfield generator

STRENGTHS

• Stealthy - ship has an active cloaking device to allow it to be invisible to enemy sensors
• Retractable weaponry - whilst not strictly illegal, having the weaponry retractable reduces the attention the ship will draw.
• Quick escape - the HIMS system, anti-ion systems and effective hyperdrive make escaping a difficult situation easy.

WEAKNESSES

• No passive stealth - relying entirely on its active cloaking device, with no stealth materials, if the system is off or disabled, the ship can easily be detected.
• Fight or flight - the only weapon that the ship can use whilst cloaked is its torpedo launcher, however this will immediately give away its position.
• Poor firepower - designed as a civilian vessel, it is poorly armed, only having the torpedo launcher above its stock weaponry.

DESCRIPTION
When Cass Gemini was asked to leave her family home, along with her generous inheritance, she was handed the Parting Gift a fast and sturdy corvette previously owned by her father.

Cass upgraded it and improved its technology over the years to make it the ship it is now. It is useful to keep a low profile, being stealthy and armed to a level that blends in with a lot of freighters and personal transports.

It can carry several months worth of consumables and has cargo capacity of around 5 tons. The external plating is smooth and highly polished providing decent protection and also looking impressive.

The ship fits snugly into the underside of the Midnight Kyber, Cass's frigate and is now kept for both sentimental reasons and as a useful personal transport.

Nice ship again! However:

• Please link the bronzium to the materials, this is not a very often use one.
• And you forget to add the next two lines to your template, please fix it:
  • Hangar Allocations: (This is the allocated amounts of starfighters and support craft (dropships, shuttles,gunships,etc) this submission can hold in its hangar based on the maximum hangar space capacity listed above)
    • Starfighters: x squadrons
    • Support Craft: x squadrons
  • Single Craft Hangar: (Does this ship have a hanger for a single fighter craft to be docked? Please choose either Yes or No. This field does not need to be taken into account when balancing but should be included in the strengths and weaknesses.)

Thanks

Not sure how I accidently deleted the hangar bits but added them back in and linked the Bronzium.
