Subject: TL C Nigiyabazi Light Cruiser, revised.

I miscalculated the jump fuel needed for the Light Cruiser: it had only 
enough for one parsec.  So I axed 100 of the low-berth crew to make up 
more space.  One-third of the staterooms were also removes, and 
hot-bunking was instituted.

This new fuel space makes the Nigiyabazi have "unlimited" fuel for Battle 
Rider purposes, increasing it's flexibility (and nullifying some of the 
strategic analysis I posted previously).
