Notes:
The Helkana is designed to be carried aboard the Tempere Modular Transport. It
is also used at space ports on planets that have the recources and ability to
make HCD fuel. The crew live on the mothership or at the space port. The 35 ton
modules on the Helkana are the same as those carried by the Tempere.
The Helkana has 4.457 MW of surplus power to operate a turret weapon.
The Viiborg is built on Mnemosyne (0232 Foreven sector) in the Wilds.

Notes
The Tempere is designed as a modular transport. It normally carries a Viiborg
fuel skimmer, a drop tank, a Helkana class shuttle and modules totalling 300
tons displacement, in this configuration she can do two Jumps without
refueling. The Viiborg has a 1400 kl fuel tank fitted to be used as a fuel tank
for the Tempere in addition to her own fuel supply, this supplies the Tempere
with the ability to do a single jump when fully loaded. She has been known to
travel with as many as four drop tanks (without the Viiborg and Helkana on
board) allowing four jumps. Where fuel is available in the destination system
she will travel with only one drop tank and 600 tons of modules (allowing for a
single jump).
Modules come in a variety of sizes up to 100 tons displacement. The most common
are the 35 ton modules that can be carried to by Helkana. Modules can have a
variety of purposes also, ranging from general cargo, quarters, a reactor,
weapon systems, labs, small craft, etc. Since the Tempere can not enter a
planets atmosphere, modules are lifted to orbit by specially designed Lifters
such as the Tsuga Heavy Lifter (thank you Joe Heck for getting me started
thinking about TL 9 worlds).
The 50 MW fision reactor provides a surplus of 43.234 MW to power modules and
weapons turrets. The modules usually draw on the power supply of the Tempere,
however, some have their own power supply and one module has a 200 MW fusion
reactor which can feed surplus power to the ship.
Gravity is provided by spinning the entire ship. The spin is usually stopped
while approaching a world to make docking and cargo handling easier. A flight
crew of five is carried to man the Viiborg fuel skimmer and/or Helkana shuttle.
If additional personnel are needed they can be carried in quarters modules.
The Viiborg is built on Mnemosyne (0232 Foreven sector) in the wilds. While
several relic ships exist at Mnemosyne, the Tempere is the backbone of
Mnemosyne commerce and exploration.

Notes:
The Viiborg is designed to be carried aboard the Tempere Modular Transport. It
is also used at refueling space stations built around gas giants. The crew live
on the mothership or space station. The fuel on the Viiborg can be used by the
Tempere directly as if the Viiborg were an auxillary fuel tank or it can be
pumped into the Tempere's normal fuel tanks.
The Viiborg is built on Mnemosyne (0232 Foreven sector) in the Wilds.
