Okay, here's my entrant into Charles Pratt's diplomat ship sweepstakes.  
Ol' Griffen Shipyards is hopeful since the, er, economy here could use a 
jumpstart.  This was a lot of fun.  I may even use the bugger in my own 
campaign!

NOTES

The Pax Regencia-Class Diplomatic Cruiser is the premiere recontact 
starship of the Regency.  Designed on Collace/Plankwell (1237 A628943-E) in 
1196, the ship was commissioned for duty in early 1202 when the tides began 
to turn on the wilds recolonization issue.

Pax Regencia ships are well-armed and armored for operation in the wilds.  
In the event the crew encounters Virus, pirates or hostile TEDs, the ship 
is prepared to fend off heavy attacks.  Since the ship's primary purpose is 
diplomatic, some effort was made to conceal its armament.  To this end, the 
turrets and barbettes are located near retractable surface structures so 
that they seem like part of the "natural landscape."  Two separate MFDs are 
supplied, one for use with the longer-range barbettes, and one for use with 
the shorter range turrets.

The four command crew of ship are generally tasked with contact and 
diplomatic liaison duties.  Single-occupation large staterooms have been 
allocated to them to accommodate their personal equipment and to serve as 
makeshift offices.

The ship includes a sophisticated grand conference room (168 m3), complete 
with its own workstation for configuring and displaying elaborate 
holographic presentations.  Two small conference rooms (42 m3 ea.) are used 
for offline meetings and private negotiation between parties.

Pax Regencia-Class starships are named after notable treaties and accords 
from sentient history.

Fuel Scoops, 1.36 hrs. to scoop jump and maneuver fuel.  Fuel purification 
machinery (5.72 MW), 24 hours to refine 4575 m3 (326.79 tons).
