Description Primary FTL capable support vessel of the ZMSF, the Danzig class has been in regular space service for 43 years and undergone multiple refits. The Danzig has been used in numerous low intensity conflicts and served with several distinctive actions as a troop ship in the Gastins world colonial Revolt. Danzig vessels have been modified into "fire ships" on several occasions.

With over 1,230 Danzig Class vessels in civilian use and 540 in ZMSF service the Danzig class is estimated to be the ZMSF's core "medium" logistical support unit of choice for the foreseeable future. The Danzig class can be constructed by any standard ZMI orbital manufactuary.

What application do you use to do your work, and do you know of any good tutorials for said application that helps a new-comer begin to understand how to produce such results?

I use paint shop pro ten at the moment, and I started with paintshop pro 3. I do not really have any tutorials nor did I use them, I just worked through it myself.

Amazing! I love the level of detail that you put into your starship profiles.
Especially the technical data.
May I ask how you come up with it all?
The mass calculations, and acceleration data, etc?

A mixture of estimation based on energy to mass ratio and desired density as I do not want it all that volatile though with the FTL stuffs thats all hand wavium.

*claps* You are the only person other than my friend Pat who I've heard refer to Sci-fi magic as "Handwavium". So you don't have an actual formulas for calculating all that, huh? In that case I commend your estimation abilities and your level of detail! Estimation or not, it must take a lot of time to come up with all that.
