Re-sent. Don't have lables on the other decks yet, but I wanted you to have SOMETHING on file. I'll get you the rest later, probably after you get back from Origins, along with the cut-away & cross-section views.

You people have no clue what GENIUS those plans display. Somebody remind me to post part of one tomorrow.

By Garth L. Getgen (Sgt_G) on Monday, June 03, 2013 - 06:58 am: Edit

Well, there's a fine line between genius and insanity, and I probably put more time into the project than any sane person should. But, yes, I'm very happy with the results.

OK, SVC. This is an official reminder to post a sneak peak of Garth's POL plans.

By Steve Cole (Stevecole) on Monday, June 03, 2013 - 11:22 am: Edit

Curious, the new way Garth did them won't convert to JPG while the old way will. Hmm.... I don't know if the BBS can take a tif. Let's try.

That would be no.

Very nice.

Quite nice indeed.

Very nice, I particularly like the briefing room in front of the bridge, it really emphasizes that there is no window there.

Very nice work!

Looks good.

By Terry O'Carroll (Terryoc) on Monday, June 03, 2013 - 08:21 pm: Edit

Indeed. Thanks to Garth for his hard work.

By Stewart W Frazier (Frazikar2) on Monday, June 03, 2013 - 08:50 pm: Edit

Whew, definately more detail orientated than what I did with the Lyran...

By Garth L. Getgen (Sgt_G) on Monday, June 03, 2013 - 09:21 pm: Edit

Nick, thanks man. That means a lot coming from you, after the nice work you did on I don't know how many ships already.

Cross-posting from the Mongoose board.

The standard roster for the Police Cutter has a crew of 98 (104 with Plus-refit), with 13 officers and 4 or 5 Chief Petty Officers. Here's the list of officers:

OFFICERS:
1: Commander == LtCmdr
2: Exec Officer == LT
3: Operations Officer == LT
4: Intelligence Officer == LT-jg
5: Science Officer == LT-jg
6: Weapons Officer == LT-jg
7: Chief Engineer == LT
8: Assistant Engineer == LT-jg
9: Ship’s Surgeon == LT
10: Physician’s Assistant / Registered Nurse == LT
11: Chief Shuttlecraft Pilot == LT-jg
12: Shuttlecraft Pilot == LT-jg
13: Tactical-Team Leader == LT-jg

Ensigns (O-1) may fill LT-jg (O-2) billet.

CHIEF PETTY OFFICERS:
1: Bridge Operations (Nav/Helm/Comm/Sensors)
2: Engineering
3: Weapons
4: Shuttle Maintenance
And perhaps one of the following:
5: Ship’s Maintenance / Damage Control
6: Tactical Team
7: Medical / Corpsman
8: Lab Tech

One Chief will be a Senior Chief Petty Officer and be the Chief of the Boat (CoB) in addition to regular duties. All enlisted "issues" go thru the CoB before going to the Exec and/or Captain.

The deck plans have 14 officer suites (two-room quarters), 8 chief lodgings (one-room quarters w/ private lav), and 88 enlisted quarters (44 pair of one-room quarters with a shared lav between them) for a total of 110 beds. There are 40 additional beds (24 in junior enlisted quarters, 16 in barracks) for expanded crew, but some of these compartments are often converted to something else (e.g., extra storage, a hydroponic garden, VIP quarters, etc, etc).

Just a quick question.

Since this ship actually is a police ship. Shouldn't there really be a marshall or customs officer assigned to the ship instead of an intelligence officer?

By George Duffy (Sentinal) on Sunday, June 09, 2013 - 04:01 am: Edit

Oh... and nice work Garth

By Will McCammon (Djdood) on Sunday, June 09, 2013 - 04:05 am: Edit

It's a Federation National Police ship, not Star Fleet. Because of that, the entire crew are police staff and I would assume many of them are actual cops with law-enforcement credentials, certainly most of the officers and all of the "marines".

By George Duffy (Sentinal) on Sunday, June 09, 2013 - 04:32 am: Edit

You're right Will.

However, I was thinking along the lines that the Marshall or Customs officer would be the one that deals with all the different legal responsibilities between Federation and local planetary laws, issuing warrants as well as in regards to inspections and/or confiscation of smuggled goods.

By George Duffy (Sentinal) on Sunday, June 09, 2013 - 04:40 am: Edit

We all know that paperwork will follow mankind to the end of time.

By Garth L. Getgen (Sgt_G) on Sunday, June 09, 2013 - 05:46 am: Edit

There is an enlisted Legalman whose job it is to advise the commander on such matters, and two or more Master-at-Arms (navy term for "policeman") who also have knowledge on stuff like that.

The Marshall's service is a separate agency that falls under the court system rather than law enforcement, and they handle transportation of convicts and locating fugatives.

Star Fleet would call the Intel Officer the "Comms Officer" has he supervises the communications and sensor techs. But his job is more than that as he is the one that will sort thru the data they collect to make sense of it all. He tracks intel reports from headquarters and tries to figure out trends in criminal activity.

RE Paperwork: I'm writing descriptions of every room on the ship, and for two admin offices, I wrote "Admin Office: Typically assigned to the Yeoman (admin clerk) and Legalman. These rooms are equipped with printers because even in the far-future, there will always be a need for hard-copy printouts of personnel records and legal documents." I have you covered. ;-)

Very nice work Garth.

By Garth L. Getgen (Sgt_G) on Sunday, June 09, 2013 - 11:41 pm: Edit

SVC: Please do take those print-outs I gave you or have Jean load the PDF files I sent on her tablet, and show them to Nick Blank. It's his turn to drool.

ALL: Thanks for the compliments. But really, the sample SVC uploaded simply does not do it justice. You need to see the real thing, so order a copy of CL-47.
