This is definitely one for the nervous type, with 12 points of armour travel the universe and feel safe doing so!

Good background, a sample crew, some nice exterior views and a b&w deckplans, possibly my favourite although it is a tad expensive (the yacht not the booklet).

This work introduces a quite fascinating starship: the Trilobite-class heavy yacht. Noted for heavy armour and shielding, it's designed to be able to make close approaches to stars and enter heavily-irradiated areas... and all to provide new thrills for jaded nobility and other persons of wealth!

A second use is suggested - black ops insertion - as the vessel is quite stealthy even if it does not bear weapons. It also seems to me that research scientists might find it useful, provided that they work for a university or other institution with very deep pockets, as this is not a cheap starship - over 600 MCr.

Because of its intended clientele, the interior is luxurious and the crew includes several stewards to cater to the passengers' every whim.

As well as backhistory of the type and full statistical details, there are several exterior views and a deckplan (although for some reason the bridge is buried in the centre of the ship when there is an ideal 3-seat area in the upper level to the front... I think I'll remodel the layout in mine!).

Certainly an interesting starship to encounter, or even to use with a party interested in exploration - or luxurious adventuring!
