Ship Locations

A general listing of sections of your typical NARV, organized by deck, along with the machinery commonly associated with it.

Solar Deck ("Deck A"):

  • Port Solar Array (“West”): The solars are designed to retract into a defensive position when planning an FTL jump, and may require repairs after an FTL flight or, more likely, after the ravages of space combat.
  • Starboard Solar Array (“East”): The solars each have an SMES near them, which stores the output of the solar panels and outputs towards the Substation.
  • Fore Solar Array (“North”): Each solar is protected by metal shutters that close around them when the ship is raising shields, particularly when going into FTL drive.
  • Aft Solar Array (“South”): The shutters can be manually lowered by the Bridge Console, if recharging while defending is required.
  • Deck Guns: The external component of the Naval Artillery Cannons, deck guns that can punch holes in most any ship. There are two deck guns, the South and North. Each must be loaded separately from below.
  • Deck A Thermoelectric Engine: A device that generates power via the thermodynamic differential between a hot loop (heated via a burn chamber or other sources of intense heat) and a cold loop (routed through space to chill). Each deck has a Thermoelectric Engine should other means of power fail.
  • Deck A Maintenance Lobby: A small lobby with the ladder downwards and a few useful items for those planning on working the solars.
  • Deck A Custodial Closet: A small cleaning closet, though there's not much to clean up here.
  • Deck A Substation: The power substation that processes the solar's charge.

Bridge Deck ("Deck B"):

  • Main Bridge: The Bridge, where the ship is normally directed from, the commanders command from, and so forth. Notably there are two other 'Bridge' locations, used as fallback points should things become too open to space, but the main bridge is the most spacious.
  • AI Upload Chamber: The place to upload new laws to the AI. Perform with caution.
  • AI Module Storage (Bridge): A place to store AI modules until they are needed.
  • AI Core Chamber: The home of the AI, who can do anything any crewman can do - which becomes most important when something Bad happens to an important crewman and there are no immediate replacements.
  • Battle Bridge: A cramped, small room tucked in the heart of Deck B which holds all of the vital computers required to conduct a battle from; personnel are still required to operate them, though!
  • Captain's Quarters: The luxuriously appointed Captain's Quarters, with his assortment of special Captain gear.
  • Commander's Quarters: The comfortable Commander's Quarters, with some special equipment.
  • Executive Officer's Quarters: A utilitarian Quarters for the Executive Officer, including some important machines to help him do his job.
