Starship Production and Company Tiers

[Ashin Varanin]

These policies codify existing practices for acceptance of ship production by tier. They'll be included in other places shortly.

Corporations have the following restrictions on production of starships. These restrictions are not retroactive.

Tier 1: Minor production of sub-capital size (100 meters or less).
Tier 2: Mass production up to cruiser (600 meters or less), minor production up to light star destroyer (1500 meters or less).
Tier 3: Mass production up to light star destroyer, minor production up to command ship (2000 meters or less).
Tier 4-6: Mass production up to star destroyer (1700 meters or less), minor production up to command ship.

These rules are designed to cut down on low-tier corporations making very powerful ships.

Additionally, please be sure to produce things your company actually produces. If your company doesn't have shipbuilding as a focus, be judicious with what submissions you make.

Does this change or effect companies that design ships?

Has the designation of making designs for ships but no shipyards it just sells those off. Is there a limit to what they can make?

[member="Matsu Ike"] - It's not forbidden, but it's a safe bet that a ship designed by a tier 3 personal weapons manufacturer off the cuff would be pretty badly designed.
