Roscoehatfield? IIRC, in either module R8 or module R11, there's a reference to freighters operating with multiple Skids (up to three for the small and up to six for the large) at the expense of having the cargo pod.
Before I managed to get that reference through my incredibly thick skull (
), I couldn't imagine a freighter withOUT a pod, so you're not alone.
Just a guess on my part (now), but I think it might have to do with the Q-Ships; I don't think they're modular, and threw me for a good number of years.

Steve, thanks. That's what I needed.
Jeff, since I lost my collection of everything in a fire, I don't have the ability to look everything up.

Just remember you can't hook up and haul of a pod during a scenario or game. Its a complicated process.

Dal, that's OK. My thought process in this and other threads was towards early (pre-Y121) years energy requirements of Tholian Webs, and how the Tholians could most likely have handled that problem. The WT isn't available until Y150, and I noticed that the early years freighters had the same 25 box cargo pod. The WT has a cargo pod filled with APRs and has two web generators. The question about drop and hook made it plausible that the early freighters could have hauled web charger pods around. I suggested it as a new ship, and we'll see what happens.
My first thoughts were that maybe the Tholians could have converted their PC into a web charger. I began a conversation in that direction but kept getting either a PC hull with four P-1s and a lot of power, or a toothless PC with even more power, neither of which I liked even though the PC was the largest hull class available that early. SVC came up with the same answer I already did, so I chose to look elsewhere. When I saw early freighters with the same 25 box cargo pods and read in the rules that those same cargo pods were available in the early years, I had my next light bulb moment, the YWT based on the unarmed early freighter.
We'll see how that one is received.

Christrmas for plasma chuckers already? Looks like #5's ate all the #8's and divided in two (mitosis?)

Steve,
All of the row 9 have an identification number of 5 and not 9.
| By Steve Cole (Stevecole) on Monday, November 24, 2025 - 09:16 pm: Edit |
email me and i'll fix it tomorrow. I only had 15 minutes, enough time to do it, not check it.

Thanks, Now I print them on label paper, cut them and paste them to some of the many extre counters I have.
| By Steve Cole (Stevecole) on Tuesday, November 25, 2025 - 01:21 am: Edit |
Wait until I fix the numbers.
