It has a curved hull design, rounded front that widens towards the back, raising upwards to the back which contains the main cargo holds and impulse engines. A shuttlebay on the underside holds up to 6 shuttles. Two pylons extend from the edges of the sides downwards to join at the single warp nacelle. Armed with only a pair of phasers, one fore and one aft, and shields.Aakenn Class (Federation (PL6)Type: LightSubtype: FreighterSize: Colossal (-8)Tactical Speed: 3000Defense: 7Flat-Footed Defense:  5Autopilot Defense: 5Hardness: 15Hit Dice: 34d20 (680 hp) shields 850 hpInitiative Modifier: +2Pilot's Class Bonus: +3Pilot's Dex Modifier: +2Gunner's Attack Bonus: +2Length: 623 ftWeight: 70,640 tonsTargeting System Bonus: +3Crew: 54 (trained +4)Passenger Capacity: 10Cargo Capacity: 15,000 tonsGrapple Modifier: +16Base PDC: 54Restriction: Federation allied, LicencedAttack:Type 3 Phaser -3 ranged 10d10 (5000 ft, energy/fire, s)Attack of Opportunity:noneStandard PL(6) Design Spec: Agile Ships (+1 Dodge), Easy to Repair (Repair DC -4, -25% time), Swiss Army Tech, Shield Dependent, transporter, Sickbay (extended medbay), tractor beam, replicators, shuttle bay (6 shuttles)Engines: thrusters, ion engines, warp drive (max warp 7, cruising warp 5)Armour: ditaniumDefense Systems: shields, autopilotSensors: Class IIICommunications: radio transceiver, subspace arrayWeapons:  2 type 3 phaserGrappling Systems: tractor beamVariantsMk2The Aakenn Mk2 introduced in the 2250s only saw improvements in the warp engines improving the warp speed to Warp 9 and cruising speed of Warp 8, although it was discovered the improved engines and the hull required more maintenance for the improved speeds.Make following changes to Aakenn:Increase Max warp to Warp 9, cruising speed Warp 8;Requires basic maintenance every 2 weeks, if not done this regularly, increase Repair DC by 25% and time required by 50%.PDC: +1Mk3The Aakenn Mk3 is similar to the Mk2 but had some hull reinforcement to try and compensate for the higher stress of the higher speed engines, although this didn't have the desired effect, but did make it a little more robust against the rare pirate attacks.Modify Mk2 with following changes:Increase Hit Dice to 36d20 (720 hp), shields to 900;PDC +1Mk4The Aakeen Mk2 had lower speed Warp engines, but with greater endurance and required less maintenance than those in the Mk2 and 3s, with a slightly larger crew requirements, but the hull was slightly enlarged with larger cargo holds, and improved phasers to type 4s.Make following changes to Aakenn, Mk2 or Mk3:Increase Hit Dice to 37d20 (740 hp), shields to 925 hp;Crew increased to 58;Max Warp 8, cruising speed Warp 6, repairs to warp engines have DC reduced by -2;Increased cargo to 16,500 tons;Increased weight to 71,840 tons;Replace Phaser Type 3 to Type 4;PDC +2Phaser Type 3Phasers are the main offensive weapons of the Federation, using nadian based phased energy that fire beams, capable of variable energy output. Usually mounted in a low profile turret to allow greater field of fire. Able to change damage by lowering the number of die to a minimum of 2d10 as a free action once per round. The Type 3 phaser was available on civilian ships.Damage: 10d10Damage Type: Fire/EnergyRange Increment: 5000 ftRate of Fire: SemiMinimum Ship Size: HugePurchase DC: 33Restriction: Res (+2)Phaser Type 4Phasers are the main offensive weapons of the Federation, using nadian based phased energy that fire beams, capable of variable energy output.

Modifying a device this way means it can not be used for its original purpose at the same time, and requires a Knowledge: Technology check DC 18 and Repair check DC 21 and 5 +1d6 minutes for moderate changes (such as deflector array being used as a means to emit a type of energy as a weapon); while more extensive modifications require a Knowledge: Technology check DC 25  and Repair check DC 30, and 30 +2d10 minutes. This type of modification means the item is unable to be used for its original purpose until it has been restored to its original configuration.Shield DependentStar Trek ships have powerful shields, having the equivalent of Deflector Shields (d20 Future pg 42) and provide bonus HP against all attacks equal to 20 HP / starship HD + 25% HD, for example, a ship with 5 HD (100 HP) will have shields with 125 HP. However as they have developed incredible powerful shields, they are a bit lacking in the armour department, suffering -2 hit dice per category and subtype. There are a few exceptions to this rule, being Klingon, Dominion and Hirogen ships which have standard hit dice for their subtype and category, with a few notable other ships, such as the Defiant class.</blockquote>
