I am finally getting the greenlight to start my MageLight campaign in my Saturday night group. (I discussed the idea behind MageLight in the IMTU section several months ago.) The usual GM is getting a bit burnt out, and nobody else has anything close to being able to run, so I get to try this out.
My problem, and hence my request for assistance, is ships. Not design, but deckplans. I'm using the T20 design rules, with modifications for the game universe, and I've run into the problem that I really can't use the majority of the deckplans out there, as they are designed for the regular Traveller universe, and there are significant differences from that to the MageLight universe, most importantly fuel.
MageLight ships don't use fuel, so the large areas of most Traveller ships blacked out as fuel tanks are, in this universe, wasted space. Now with most groups, this wouldn't be a problem, as I would just tell them it was equipment space and it wasn't important, but there are some very perceptive and experienced role-players in this group, and that won't wash with them.
Since I have NO artistic skills at all, drawing up my own deckplans is right out, so my request is, does anyone have or know about deckplans out there for small adventurer class ships, some light patrol ships and cargo vessels, that don't have big swaths of the interior taken up with fuel tanks? If pointed in the right direction, I can come up with stats for the ship in a snap, but the plans are vitally needed.
Any help is greatly appreciated...
