[FONT=Arial, sans-serif]You don't need Energy Points, or Fuel requirements, or Bridge size, or Computers, or Armor, or even crew size. You might need a mission or "ecological niche", population, TL and performance. From these can come any implications you need.[/FONT]

[FONT=Arial, sans-serif]Starport - built to service ships[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, sans-serif]City - a small constructed habitat[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, sans-serif]Colony - a large constructed habitat[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, sans-serif]World - a world, moon, or planetoid[/FONT]

[FONT=Arial, sans-serif]Secondary Missions:[/FONT]

[FONT=Arial, sans-serif]Predatory - built to plunder worlds rapidly[/FONT]
