Shangri-La class Lt Cruiser John Crimmins Tech: Human Govt: AISB The Ancient and Illuminated Seers of Bavaria Mass: 48 Cost: 158 Clas: Lt Cruiser (CL) Strm: None FTL: Std MD: 4 Armr: 3 Hull: 14 (Military) Damg: 4/4/3/3 Crew: 3 Sens: Std Systems: 1 x Screen 1 x FCS 2 x PDS 2 x Needle Beam (F) 1 x Class-2 Beam (All) 2 x Class-1 Beam (All) Notes: [Data note: Cost recalculated from the original "Cost: 162" to "Cost: 158" - ftsrj.js's cost calculator (confirmed accurate against Fleet Book 1's own "Mass and Points Cost Table") doesn't reconcile with this ship's originally declared cost; the original submission's declared cost never matched its own listed components. The bracketed figure is the cost with a standard fighter complement aboard, present only for ships with Fighter Bays.] Like the Cagliastro, the Shangri-La is a modified ship belonging to another major power--in this case, the Eurasian Solar Union's Tibet class light cruiser. The Tibet class is no longer being produced, and New Bavaria has been able to obtain a substantial quantity of decommissioned ships for their own use. As standard practice, two Class 2 Beam Systems are removed, and replaced with a pair of Needle Beam Systems. [Data note: Added "(Military)" to the Hull line - this record had no Military/Merchant type suffix at all. Recovered from its declared Crew (3) matching the Military Crew Factor formula (ceil(48/20) = 3), not the Merchant one (ceil(48/50) = 1).]
