ADVANCED SYSTEMS
STRENGTHS
  • Provides a mobile residence as well as a permanent base of operations for "Machine Jack Mechanix", Arryn Jhanson's prime source of income and hobby.
  • Can transport a vast size/weight of goods between locations, dependent upon the needs of his customers.
  • The Stygium Cloaking Field offers optimal privacy whilst Arryn works aboard the vessel, and otherwise between locales.
WEAKNESSES
  • Power consumption between the Molecular Furnace, the metal works stations and the Stygium Cloak essentially cripple most other primary systems, rendering them inoperable whilst the aforementioned are in use.
  • "The Nomad" is not built for war and will not fare well under attack from larger craft, or greater numbers. A commercial vessel, maneuverability and speed is also at a significant disadvantage compared to other combat-ready ships.
DESCRIPTION
Based on appearances alone, there’s nothing overly spectacular about the Nomad that catches the eye and cries for attention; in fact, the entirety of the Freighter looks old and beaten down, and without the detachable cargo/freight containers that line the sides, the shape of the vessel resembles something akin to a flattened rectangle. Like the tales often taught by our maternal role models, however, it’s about what’s on the inside of this vessel that truly counts! And much of it is of great personal value to Arryn Jhanson which makes the Nomad his prized possession beyond most anything else.

The primary ambition behind this project of Arryn’s was in order to allow him to set to work with his skills and hobbies, while also being able to traverse the Galaxy and keep himself on the move. Having spent a great deal of time working for a local spaceport on Lirra, his knowledge of ship mechanics had grown from an early interest, into a profession and great love of his, thus the Nomad has become the perfect asset and base of operations for his starting venture, “Machine Jack Mechanix” - a small-time company owned by Arryn alone, and operated under his guidance alongside a crew of droids purchased from Locke and Key Mechanics.

At first glance, the most obvious use for the Nomad is the rather vast freight shipping containers that are attached via the sides of the craft, these four individual containers carried by a modular system where the Heavy Freighter can pick up, traverse and then land and unload great amounts of product or heavy goods depending on the buyers' needs and purchase. Once on the ground, these massive crate’s open up on both sides, the doors lowering to produce a vehicle ramp for the loading and unloading of storage/goods. Each of these massive containers is capable of holding 500,000 metric tonnes, and the Freighter can carry up to four at any one time.

Within the ship itself, the interior has been designed around Arryn’s commercial and workshop purposes, as well as his own private living needs. Assisted by droids, there are no others within his crew, by his own choosing.

The key aspect to his work and ability to manipulate high-grade metal works is the molecular furnace for which demands a great deal of power consumption to utilize and requires the Nomad to be in an idle condition, in order to compensate for this expense. While in use, many of the other ships systems are unable to operate at full capacity and to be caught off guard by a hostile presence during his work, would set the Nomad at a great disadvantage in all respects.
In a bid to counter this issue, Arryn’s vessel uses a Stygium Cloaking Field in order to keep himself and his company’s products safe from pirates and other rival outlaw groups looking to make off with his commerce. Whilst the Nomad is adrift in space, power can be effectively rerouted from the engines and hyperdrive in order to sustain both the cloak and the furnace simultaneously.

Relying upon the LK Archimedes & Aristaeus Drones, the artificial crew is capable of setting up and adapting the production line within the Nomad to benefit a large variety of projects that Arryn Jhanson intends to create and sell to the greater Galaxy. That said, however, Arryn’s knowledge base is not akin to some of the more state of the art designs that require such things as Nano-Tech for example, and in the early days of Machine Jack Mechanix founding, the Nomad has been stocked with the tools and required gear for the creation of weapons, armour variants and small ground-based vehicles; starting out humble and not setting his sights too high, too soon.
