Raider Sloop Variants
Trieme Class This ship was built prior to the Sloop type. It is armed with weapons that could be considered Drazi in origin. Dismissal of the Drazi origin theory isn't helped by the area of operation of these small ships, which are usually near Drazi space. Caraval Class This ship was built to be basically a mobile Heavy Plasma Cannon. It is quite uselful when it manages to get in behind a target and tear off the rear thrusters with the main gun. Longboat Class This almost total waste of a ship was built to provide the Economy Battlewagons being put out by the Deneth with an escort. The main customers for these types of ships are usually the poor men who sign up with the raider group known to operate the Twilight Seductress. The only thing they really have to look forward to out of the whole deal is that they may eventually make enough money to buy a fighter and have more luck being a raider. Or maybe even enough money to buy a ticket home.
