 The favoured weapon is the pulse torpedo, with some ships carrying class 2 versions of this. This has a range band of 9" instead of 6", and has double the mass.
-Most NSL ships use three rows of hull, similar to the USN. Jump-2 drives are the norm. Fighters are standard unless otherwise specified. **Ship costs below do not include the cost of fighters.**

 The NSL tends to field a mix of standard and heavy fighters, and will often field interceptors if expecting conflict with fighter heavy enemy fleets.

 **Class:** Scout (SC)\\ **Mass:** 10\\ **Points:** 35\\
-This is a tough scout craft, though only lightly armed and sacrificing some speed for hull strength and armour. Unlike many other scouts, it has a chance of surviving a military engagement.
+A scout craft designed to scan and identify enemy targets. It has no weaponry of any kind to speak of, and is quite fragile, so is kept away from combat engagements as much as possible. It is equipped with three fire control systems, enabling it to perform a scan of three targets simultaneously.

 Stripping the drive systems to the minimum, and mounting extra side extensions for larger gun mountings, the Sachsen packs a terrific punch. It is a purely offensive tool, often deployed alongside heavy cruisers or capital ships.

-The Frankfurt class of Escort Cruiser is designed to be a defensive escort for other vessels, and no attempt has been made to pretend otherwise. Armed with a dozen point defence systems, as well as a backup area defence fire control, it is a major threat to fighters. Its tough armour ensures that it stays a threat to fighters for as long as possible.

 The smallest carrier in the NSL navy, the Prinzessin Hannah was built to provide support to light patrols, where a full sized carrier would not be cost effective but some fighter support was required. It is standard practice to carry heavy fighters, for extra durability on long missions away from supply lines.

It is also equipped with ortillery systems which can be used to either takeout planetary defences before landing, or as support once troops are on the ground.

+**Class:** Heavy Carrier (CVH)\\ **Mass:** 212\\ **Points:** 755\\
 Carrying only four flights of fighters, the Neu Salzburg doesn't compare well to similar sized carriers of other navies. However, it is well armed and very well defended, and pilots can be sure that their base will still be there at the end of an engagement. The Neu Salzburg is even able to defend nearby vessels with its area defence systems, so is often paired with a BDN or SDN.
