Info in a VBB thread I need
An Argo has a crew of about 20-50 and a passenger capacity of 500. Case closed. A Poseidon can be piloted by just 2 people, but can hold up to 20 people. Look at the size of the Deimos, I'd be surprised if it could hold more than 1000 people, let alone 6000. I would estimate about 850 for the Deimos. I can't remember what I've put now.

My crew/passenger sizes webpage will be available soon... I just have to get the Internet at home (won't be too long).

Argo:

2 pilots,
2 navigation specialists,
2 comm specialists,
4 gunners,
10 repair crew,
2 janitors

If one days shift is 12 hours, than you need 1 pilot, 1 nav specialist, 1 comm specialist, 2 gunners, 5 repair crew, and 1 janitor, then the next shift would be identical, so you double the crew for one shift, and you get a total of 22. Even if the shift tme is different, you have to remember that a ship doesn't just go to sleep when the crew is tired, but no matter what the local time is, or how long the local day is, there is still a ships-night, so they need a day crew and a night crew.

Yeah, too bad that almost nothing of that is confirmed by Volition. :doubt:

You make it sound so evil and illegal. There's nothing to stop someone from creating such a list. There's also nothing stopping people from not using it, creating their own, or a future official Freespace spinoff determining otherwise. Though it would probably be better to have a larger thinktank to create anything that the community at large could potentially see as a form of reference.
