Fritz has it. A JPEG or PDF sheet of cards can be printed onto cardstock. Very economical.
Plus you can mark them up as your ship takes damage. Or note customizations.
So, what kind of stats would you want to see on the front of a ship data card? Something brief enough to convey the essentials while still being useful?
Something like this, perhaps?
Cards can be for ... Anything.
Character
Objects.
Memberships
Skills
Skill Groups
Talents (language, etc).
Guns.
Vehicles
Starships
If you use the 3x3 card holder grid, your character may have more of these cards, but these are the ones immediately available. Or maybe more on the back of the sheet.
So. A typical deck has 55 cards. An alternative is 110 cards.
What is an ideal population for such a deck?
~5% Starships?
~5% Vehicles?
~5% Alien races?
~5% Generic NPCs? (rookie, veteran) x (rogue, noble, mercenary, trader)?
~3% Important figures? (Strephon, Norris...)?
~1% Membership cards? (TAS)
~38% Weapons?
~38% Pieces of equipment?
Double that for a deck of 110?
How about crimps? (Has that ever worked for anyone?)
