We were just talking about this a few weeks back on the GURPS bbs.
Most of the guys over there figured you could upgrade the Type-T and the Broadsword by reconfiguring the GURPS features easily enough.
They came up with double, triple and quadruple the troop sizes without a
huge change in the Broadsword. One of the guys even posted his Shotel-class Broadsword variant (I kid you not

.
In GURPS starships can use "bunkrooms" by ripping out standard cabins and
simply stuffing them with men. A single bunkroom holds (only) 12 men by Imperial standards. But some of the ships could have space taken by the
bridge and other components and have enough leftover to hold 4 bunkrooms.
The Type-T was my idea which started the whole issue. I wanted to take the internal 20-dton spacedock that held the gig and turn that into several bunkrooms and then store the gig on the top of the ship in an external cradle.
I think I finally ended up tripling the Broadsword's & Type-T's troop capacity without too much trouble.
Probably hate to serve aboard them though
