Hi everyone, first post here. I needed a place to ask questions about various 40k stuff and figured this was a good place to start. I'm a fan of D6g so that’s how I heard about the site. To the questions:
1. I'm running a Rogue Trader RPG game and just starting to get into the space stuff. I need a destroyer class ship but they don't offer many examples in the RT core book. I'm looking for a ship that’s between a Destroyer class and a frigate class, Are there ships in the imperial navy like this? (could be just pure fluff, not just official ships in battle fleet gothic). If there are, how do they compare in terms of armor, speed, and weaponry to a Sword class frigate? This way I can adapt the RT rules to make one up using the sword class as a reference point.
2. I read in the Lexicanum that there is a Falchion Class destroyer, but checking out the battle fleet gothic stuff it seems to be more of a frigate, is this the case?
3.Now for something a little different. I'm guessing that the fluff of battle ships is that they have hangar bays for fighters to come out of. Now, I'm not saying they would, but if a battleship really needed to safely/secretly transport a destroyer (bigger than fighter, smaller than frigate), would it be at least within some reason that they could outfit the hangar bay to fit one? I know its probably a stretch but how far of a stretch?
In my campaign I thought it would be really cool for my group to investigate a derelict battleship just to discover a top secret experimental destroyer ship in the hangar (anyone ever watch Farscape?)
Thanks for any help, sorry the post is a big one, and sorry for any other offensive Nooby-ness I may have commited.
