Patrol Boats

The patrol boat is a venerable class of vessel, used as the backbone of naval power. Unlike the smaller escort, a patrol boat is not all about being a can for a squad of marines. Nor is it about troop transport. The patrol boat is a strategic military asset in its own right, used to project power through being widespread.

The patrol boat has an optimum size, allowing it to carry or generate large amounts of power and matter. It is therefore able to be an effective weapons or deployment platform. On the tactical front: a distinguishing feature of patrol boats is that they are able to mount tactical weapons that are powerful enough that they would destroy another patrol boat on a direct hit.

The design is a popular conversion for use by pirates and adventurers, partly because of its versatility, but because they are so commonplace.

Colonial Patrol Boat

The colonial patrol boat is meant to be multi functional, suited to docking and boarding operations, planetary landings, as well as being a capable fighter in space.

This patrol boat configuration is the most popular selection for conversion to a utility vehicle for pirates and adventurers. Some guided expedition companies use these instead of safari liners for that macho adventuring feel, tailored to those experiencing their male menopause.
