Llort Scavengers

The Llort are a subterranean race with an unstable feudal government.  They strongest among them hold power for as long as they can before a stronger individual or group comes along.  This “might makes right” attitude has led to them becoming raiders, taking what they can from other races.

The Llort lost all their outposts to the Dilgar but recaptured them later after a failed invasion of their home world.

With the lack of a stable government comes the lack of an organised military.  Ships and their crews are routinely traded between organisations in their bids for power.

Fighters

Lellat-A Medium Fighter (In Service 2207)
A well designed medium fighter with a nice turn of speed.
(42) Lellat-A, 6/11/0, (Fighter/5+/Non-Piercing)

Lellat-B Medium Fighter (In Service 2208)
The Lellat-B has slightly better guns (no enough for different stats) than the Lellat-A but they put a significant drain on the engines reducing the speed.
(40) Lellat-B, 6/10/0, (Fighter/5+/Non-Piercing)

Leteerum Assault Shuttle
Used mainly for hit and run attacks on ground installations.
(11) Leteerum, 1/9/1, (Breacher/6+)

Skulattra Breaching Pod
Many Llort ships carry a breaching pod from time to time to assist them in their raiding activities.
(5) Skulattra, 1/9/1, (Boarding Pod/5+)

Ships
As they don't have any home-grown technology, Llort ships use weapons from many different races.

Erlorra Raiding Cruiser (In Service 2215)
The main raiding vessel of the Llort, the Erlorra carries 5 standard civilian cargo pods along one side allowing it to carry off any valuable loot it encounters.  Those produced after 2260 have a newer weapon selection.

Fwellgon Raiding Scout (In Service 2227)
Used as lone raiders with their advanced sensors being used to locate distant targets, the jump engine is rather temperamental and is often out of service.

Type: FWELLGON-class LLORT RAIDING SCOUT (70)

Kaedashkada Starbase (In Service 2228)
The Llort did not start out with a design in mind when they built these bases.  As a result sections have been added as needed creating rather odd-looking bases.  They are capable of standing up to spoiling attacks from other races who are annoyed with the Llort but they cannot withstand a sustained assault.

Turgon Bolt Cruiser (In Service 2237)
After the Dilgar War the Llort reverse engineered a number of Dilgar weapons and tested them on a number of Turlisk hulls.  The additional weaponry was not considered sufficient to make up for the reduced fighter compliment.

The Yolu Theocracy

The Yolu have been in space 2000 years longer than the Minbari.  However, they mostly stayed out of the previous Shadow War and have continued to pursue isolationist policies since then.  The early Minbari molecular weaponry is based on Yolu designs.

Mutai, the martial art practiced by many within the League of Non-Aligned Worlds, originated with the Yolu.  The brutality of Mutai convinced most to leave the Yolu alone, but they have fought off attacks by their neighbours and raiders.  After the Dilgar War some of their neighbours believed that the Yolu, who had retreated to their home world in the face of the Dilgar, were old and weak attacked their former territory.  At first the Yolu attempted diplomacy but when this failed they used force to retake their territory.  Their neighbours are now in no doubt about where the borders are with encroaching ships often being destroyed without warning.

Recently the Yolu have sent ambassadors to other races to ensure that they are left alone.

Fighters

Utan Heavy Fighter (In Service 2050)
While slow the Utan is well armoured and carries a wide range of weaponry to engage both enemy fighters and capital ships.
(61) Utan, 6/8/2, (Fighter/5+/Non-Piercing)(Fighter/6+/Bomber/Extra Hull Damage)

Yonor Breaching Pod
For the few occasions where the Yolu decide to capture an intruder they use the Yonor to deliver their troops.
(5) Yonor, 1/8/2, (Boarding Pod/5+)

Ships
Well armed with molecular weaponry, Yolu vessels are also generally larger and better armoured than those of other races.

The Rogolon Dynasty

The Rogolon are a minor race bordering on the Centauri Republic.  Originally a feudal structure with multiple clans they were eventually united under a single ruling family.  Under this new Imperial Family, the Rogolon slowly grew to accept technology with each change being carefully evaluated to ensure that it did not interfere with their traditions and did not impact on their warrior culture.

Eventually, in 1863, the Rogolon reached the closest world in their star system.  From there an observatory detected what turned out to be a jump gate at the edge of the system.  Realising they were not alone in the universe the ruling family renamed itself the Rogolon Dynasty and set about sending ship to explore nearby space.

In 1956 the Rogolon encountered the Orieni and found out just how small they were in comparison.  Shortly after that they encountered the Centauri.  It was only due to these empires going to war with each other that saved the Rogolon from subjugation – they just weren't important enough.

Fighters

Chelek Strike Fighter (In Service 1951)
A super-fast fighter designed to allow their pilots to streak out ahead of the fleet and engage enemy fighters in one-on-one duels.  Unfortunately the fighters are needed more to defend their own carriers than charge off after the enemy.
(49) Chelek, 6/15/0, (Fighter/5+/Non-Piercing)

Vostor Assault Fighter (In Service 1959)
A large fighter with anti-ship missiles and defensive guns, the Vostor was intended to warriors to gain honour by attacking larger enemies.  Unfortunately it is not deployed in sufficient numbers to get past the defensive weaponry and fighters of other races.
(18) Vostor, 1/8/3, (Fighter/4+/Non-Piercing)(Striker/5+)

Ships

Rogolon culture emphasises personal honour and a lack of protection and this has carried over to their ships.  Encounters with raiders have not been sufficient to show them the error of their designs.  Instead they have just built bigger.

Levaston Freighter (In Service 1889)
Initially used to supply their outposts and then for trade with the Centauri and Orieni, the Levaston is sufficiently undergunned to be considered a good prize by raiders.

Tussova Close Combat Frigate (In Service 1968)
Those warriors who were seeking greater honour or looking to recover lost honour would volunteer to serve on board these Tovin variants.  With only close-range weaponry they had to get close to the enemy to engage them.  Most would be destroyed by long-range fire before they could reach their target.

Tolov Warship (In Service 1975)
The second size of warship constructed after first contact, the Tolov is more of a stepping stone to larger vessels than an end in itself.  However, it is an adequate design so long as the enemy do not have decent fighters.

Type: TOLOV-class ROGOLON WARSHIP (186)

Rogon Large Warship (In Service 1987)
The largest of the Rogolon ships, it is still hampered by the dictates of their culture rather than being designed to counter the warships of other races.  They are also the only ships with their own jump engines.

Type: ROGON-class ROGOLON LARGE WARSHIP (323)

Raiders

Fighters
In addition to the fighters listed here, raiders would make use of almost any fighter they could get their hands on.  When operating as mercenaries the employing government would often use their own fighters and pilots on raider vessels.

Adder Light Fighter (In Service 1730)
Based on a Draxi design, the Adder is the original raider fighter.
(40) Adder, 6/10/0, (Fighter/5+/Non-Piercing)

Delta-V Light Fighter (In Service 2190)
A basic fighter, the Delta-V is cheap to produce.
(40) Delta-V, 6/10/0, (Fighter/5+/Non-Piercing)

Double-V Medium Fighter (In Service 22366)
An attempt to improve the Delta-V by mounting two of them together, one on top of the other.  While slightly more sturdy they take up more room and cannot use the external launch rails used on many raider vessels.
(40) Double-V, 6/10/0, (Fighter/5+/Non-Piercing)

Mako Breaching Pod
A respectable breaching pod used to deliver price crews to vessels that are still resisting but the raiders can't risk destroying with weapons fire.
1xMako, 1/8/0, (Boarding Pod/5+)

Ships

The original raider vessels were refits of early Drazi vessels.  These were then joined by the now rogue Centauri privateers with their vessels refitted with alternative weaponry for ease of maintenance.  Later ships are either conversions of civilian hulls or captured patrol ships, with a few purpose built vessels for mercenary work.

Ruffian Cruiser (In Service 1741)
Predecessor to the Looter, the Ruffian lacks the jump engine but carries more fighters.
The design was upgraded in 1972 to more advanced weaponry.

Type: RUFFIAN-class RAIDER CRUISER (191)

Brigand Attack Cruiser (In Service 1984)
Used by wealthier raider groups, these vessels based on the Drazi Oprey hull are quite capable but still not up to the standards of a true warship.

Type: BRIGAND-class RAIDER ATTACK CRUISER (36)

Thirsta Gunship (In Service 2001)
After the fall of the Usuuth home world the captains of the many Ussuth freighters around the galaxy made contact with various raider groups.  They exchanged their cargos for additional weaponry and protection.  While still slow and lightly-armed these small vessels showed the raiders the advantages of using packs of small vessels in their operations.

Schooner (In Service 2183)
Based on the civilian tanker hull, the schooner is a light carrier with 2 flights of fighters carried on external rails for quick deployment.  Once the fighters have been launched the rails retract into the hull and the vessel become difficult to differentiate from a standard tanker.

Sanctuary Base (In Service 2196)
The sanctuary bases used by raiders are made from the same ring-style sections as civilian bases and Earth Alliance Orion starbases.  These bases are normally only used by large raider groups who will enter into an agreement with the local government to be allowed to build the base in exchange for protection from other raiders.  They are only lightly armed and are used for resupply and repair rather than defence.

Galleon (In Service 2197)
Probably the ultimate non-jump capable raider vessel.  Based on the bulk freighter hull it keeps a significant amount of cargo capacity while mounting the weaponry and hanger bays behind camouflaged panels.  This allows the ship to blend in with normal civilian traffic and to unload cargo in ports without raising too much suspicion.

Wolf Raider (In Service 2200)
Based on the standard civilian freighter hull, the wolf raider is disguised to look like any other freighter.  However, the cargo bays have been replaced with concealed hangers and weaponry.  This makes it just about impossible for patrol ships to know if a freighter is a genuine commercial vessel or a hidden raider.

Gunboat (In Service 2218)
Smallest of the raider vessels, these attack craft operate in packs to overwhelm escort vessels and coral merchant ships.  As they don't have any cargo capacity of their own they either need to dock with and take control of a captured vessel or operate with a large raider vessel.

Battlewagon (In Service 2242)
While based on the civilian ore barge design the battlewagon has such significant differences that it could be mistaken for one.  Standard procedure is to remain in hyperspace while the fighters make their attack.  If the fighters meet significant opposition then the battlewagon can jump in and assist.

Hybrid Saucer (In Service 2242)
While Vree ships are commonly encountered in League space and are attacked by raiders as often as anyone else, their ships are not converted into raider vessels as often as others.  This is due to their complex gravitic drives and unstable anti-matter weaponry.  However on some occasions a raider band will convert a Vree merchant vessel for their use with standard drives replacing the Vree ones and other weaponry being used.

Brigantine (In Service 2243)
While based on the Earth Alliance Hermes design, most of these vessels are new builds rather than captured ships.  The additional weaponry is hidden behind special hull panels so the ship can pass as an Earth Alliance courier.  It even has special devices to mimic the energy signature of an inactive jump engine and the missing interceptor system.

Dragonship (In Service 2245)
The largest dedicated warship operated by raiders, the dragonship is based on the Deneth heavy cruiser.  While capable of destroying convoy escorts with ease, these vessels are intended for mercenary work.

Strike Carrier (In Service 2247)
Based on the luxury liner hull, the strike carrier is heavily modified to carry a large number of fighters on external rails.  While the weaponry is sufficient to protect the vessel against any fighters that get passed its own, it is no intended to engage enemy vessels directly.

The Junkyard Dogs

A relatively new raider group operating between Earth Alliance, Narn, and Centauri territory.  Their name comes from their habit of scavenging old battlefields for ships to salvage and convert into raiders.

Now fielding a large fleet it is probably only a matter of time before one of the governments puts together a fleet to hunt them down.

Ships

In addition to raider vessels, the Junkyard Dogs also field some special designs.

Lias Supply Ship (In Service 2259)
The only jump capable ship in the Junkyard Dogs fleet, although they have come close to capturing a Hyperion cruiser.  Much of the cargo capacity has been replaced with fighter rails.

The Minbari Protectorate

The Protectorate is a region of space containing a number of minor races that is under the protection and control of the Minbari Federation.

Ships

The ships operated by the Protectorate are based on Minbari hulls and use Minbari weapons, but the stealth systems have been removed.  As in the event of an actual invasion the Minbari would send fleet units to assist, all of these vessels are intended for anti-raider operations.

They do operate a small number of Letann Scouts which retain the stealth systems, and a much larger number of Toroth frigates and Rogata tugs with them removed.

Tradana Combat Frigate (In Service 2266)
Based on the Torotha hull, the Tradana is a warship rather than a troop carrier.  Produced in large numbers by the Protectorate it removes the close-range assault weaponry and replaces it with neutron lasers.

Type: TRADANA-class MINBARI COMBAT FRIGATE (126)

Based on the Rogata hull, the Rolentha adds long-range lasers to allow it to deal with raiders at a distance rather than having to wait for them to close to fusion cannon range.

Type: ROLENTHA-class MINBARI COMBAT TUG (194)
Hull: 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1

The Ships That Never Were

This is a small collection of ships that were either never finished or never even considered.

Earth Alliance Medusa Battleship
This class was apparently in development during to the Earth-Minbari War as an attempt to match the power of the Sharlin, and rumours continue that a prototype was destroyed by the Minbari although both the Earth Alliance and the Minbari deny this.  This massive ship is heavily armed but slow.  Unusually among Earth Alliance vessels it doesn't carry any fighters.

Earth Alliance Poseidonova Superdreadnought
What if we removed the fighter bays from the Poseidon and replaced them with heavy laser-pulse arrays?  It is probably just as well the Earth Alliance military planners went down different routes for the new warships.

Minbari Federation White Shar Super Warcruiser
Not understanding that the systems on the White Stars are based, in part, on Vorlon organic technology Earth Alliance military planners were concerned that the same technology could be applied to the Sharlin to create a truly devastating warship.

Just a note--the forum seems to have screwed the Traveller up--it seems to be missing a battery in the 'B' direction, and the specials as well as the notes are bolded. Think you might have to either italicise or underline your notes...

I know--when I wrote up the Olhaz ships for my Warring Triumvirate setting, the arcs of the z'Hakhre means quite a large section was bolded and it lost the B weapon, and it took me a while to sort it out.../shrugs

The thing is, the Slicer Beam has Extra Hull Damage, which gives it a guaranteed four hull damage against enemy ships, which in this conversion is good enough to wreck almost any ship. Couple that with a 66% chance to hit (83% at short range), and a shadow cruiser is as fearsome as it was in B5W (just a little hamstrung because of its inability to split beams, though).

This is a conversion from the old AoG Babylon 5 Wars rules and ships, not of the ACTA ships.  In that system the big Shadow ships generally only have one weapon, but it is a very good one.  This can mean that a single lucky hit to that weapon can cause it serious problems.  I seem to remember that Self Repair in B5W could repair systems rather than hull so less of an issue in that system - nothing ever converts precisely between systems.

Given that almost all the conversions have large amounts of unused space due to differences between the rules systems you could easily give it 4 weapons each with just 1 damage.  It would probably increase the CR slightly but you would need to take 4 weapon hits to become disarmed.  You will then be able to either concentrate your fire on a single target or spread the pain around (useful against fighter flights).  Depending on the hull value of the specific ship you may still only have a single entry on the weapon damage chart which would make it almost impossible to destroy all the weapons.

I have similarly had problems with the Vorlon ships which can fire their Lightning Guns in different combinations from individually to all together but Starmada doesn't (easily) allow you to design a ship that way.  I have therefore gone for what I consider to be the "optimal" choice but that does come at a price.  On the other hand you can easily play a game in a couple of hours with a large fleet that would take much longer in B5W.

I am currently looking at an alternative conversion from B5W which would probably see smaller ships (I want the very biggest to be Hull 30 including the very large bases) and slightly less powerful weapons.
