Garm-class Bulk Carrier

Overview

The Garm Bulk Carrier is an outgrowth of several design specs issued during the 1040s by Vilani megacorps. Though these companies eventually took a pass on the design for hulls of their own manufacture, the original manufacturer in Old Expanses sector recouped their losses by licensing the class to mid-sized carriers. The versatility and huge cargo capacity of the class made it extremely popular, and it became an Imperial Design Package in 1069, one of the few bulk carriers ever to have that status. The class was popular for conversion into other roles, including the Garm 2 tanker and the Fenris pocket carrier. The Garm is based upon the Fenris Pocket Carrier description of a "commercial conversion."
