re: Designing Yet Another Spacecraft

Space Craft or Freighter?

How much of the Falcon or Serenities money coming in, is cargo, bulk
or other wise?

Not large ships, so its likely higher end stuff, such as mail, some
food and like? medical supplies and what else? Medivacs and what else?

So how does the Falcon compare in origin to the Serenity "Firefly
Class" of ship, similar in origin and usage in the post war era? The
falcon in after the start of the Rebellion and Serenity from the war
that forced Malcolm and friends to become for all purposes former
Confederates (many like them turned to like professions after the US
Civil War, but same goes for many other wars where the losing side
military often turns to smuggling or gunslingers or robbers and like?

traveller the game, had many like type ships?

Junkyard planet from Piper or Space Viking, freighters that became war ships?
