R.U.S.T. Light Cruiser

R.U.S.T. Light Cruiser

NO MODS used

Rebel forces continue to convert civilian logistic ships into military service. The Light Cruiser is a repurposed, up-armored bulk freighter that fills the need for a large warship. Much of its cargo space has been removed and replaced with weapon systems, jump drives, and a small hangar bay. The mess hall and berthing has been converted to a CIC. Much of the ventral production facilities remain, however, allowing the ship to function as a flagship and logistics tender for other ships.

Special thanks to:
Aragath at Keen Software for the creation of the R.U.S.T. Faction and their "Pirate/Rebel Frigate" design which this cruiser was inspired by as well as for teaching me much about clever vanilla ship design and architecture.
JD.Horx for his IMDC designs which also taught me much about clever vanilla designs and influenced my construction style.
MMaster for the brilliant LCD script
