The Star-Class Armoured Merchant was originally featured in High Passage
#3, a defunct magazine for use with 'Classic' Traveller. The concept was
for a small ship that was armoured, yet could carry significant cargo
through dangerous areas of the Third Imperium and beyond. It was created
with players in mind, as the cost of this standard design is within the
reach of Merchant Prince style characters.
The deckplans were scanned in from High Passage #3. The design of the
boat was by Craig Johnson.
