So I'm coming up with the internal specifications for a civilian cargo K-1 cruiser - 120 metres long, 40 m wide, 25 m tall (six stories) along with a bridge on top. I need help filling up empty space, what are some things that a cruiser would need?


An entire section or level dedicated to a mess hall, 3-4 levels or sections dedicated to living space, the last dedicated to the armory and guidance control systems and other systems such as engine control, radar, life support etc. I'm not going to specify what goes where, but it should help with ideas.

For cargo specs, empty space. That way it can hold more material. Still have a section dedicated critical systems.

Arrentinian back at Arrentine major have announced a major archeological find. The discovery of a massive city dating back to the Pre-industrial times in Arrentine's history has uncovered a trove of manuscripts, books and other artifacts that give light on Arrentine's history. Some of the artifacts date back to a time when the nation was known as the Kingdom of Arrentine and held a vast expanse on land before collapsing in a massive war that ended the Kingdom's hold on its neighbors. The ruins appear to be of the former capital of the Kingdom. Archeologist have determined that the city must have been razed during the final conflict of the war and the remains of bones in the library area shows that history was trying to be preserved from the fire. Arrentine hopes that this region will be further examined to determine more of the history. So findings will be sent to Earth to housed in various museums in the State of Arrentine in order to educate the public about the history of Arrentine.

----

President Sithlord Man II will be participating in training maneuvers in the coming days and plans to return to Arrentine Major to celebrate the Treaty of Nations, the first of three unity treaties signed under Sithlord Man to unite Arrentine Major.

That's a massive mess hall. I've opted for three or four small canteens spread over the levels, with three major cargo spaces, and the rear ~30% of each level is dedicated to engines, life support, etc.

Due to a sudden decrease in my available time, I will be taking a long hiatus from CYOC. I henceforth leave the running of the Ascendant Kingdom to my imperial co-ruler Magery, and ask that he completes the projects I have already begun and feel free to offload project work to my country as he sees fit.

As usual, the military is completely as Magery's disposal, as is the entire tech list of the kingdom.

The clocks were striking eighteen as the freight workers loaded the last of the containers through the doors of the cargo bay and the repair crew shut the external engine panels and decoupled the fuel lines. Kathryn looked up past the maintenance dock at the cavernous figure of the Illustrious Blue . At six stories tall and nearly a city block long, the rugged K-1 cargo transport was classified as a mere Medium Cruiser, but to her, who had never seen anything bigger than a light freighter, Blue was enormous.

“All right there, Chief?”

Kathryn turned around to find Alex Oakley, one of her lieutenants, leaning on a fence.

“I’m fine, I was just… admiring the ship.”

“All of the new hires do. She’s neither illustrious nor blue - at least not anymore - but she certainly is something. I’ve been assigned to her for two years, and she still sometimes amazes me. She may not be a Star Destroyer, but she sure beats the old YT’s we have back on Kohl.”

Kathryn nodded in silence. This was her second voyage on the Blue - she had been transferred only two weeks ago from a desk job at one of the company’s shipping offices on her home planet of Ebon, where she had managed tiny freighters that could barely hold enough fuel to get from one system to another, much less any long-distance cargo. After a desperate process of sending in applications and transfer requests, she had been granted a promotion to security chief on one of the company’s flagship cruisers. The position wasn’t nearly as prestigious as it seemed; she commanded a team of eight, including her second-in-command, Oakley, but it sure beat a desk job.

She looked around her at the spaceport. It evidently did*’t get much use - there were only three landing pads for cruisers, and the other two were empty. The setting sun outlined rusty comm towers and crumbling control booths, and brown clouds gathered over the mountains in the north, promising another late-night dust storm. Swirls of dead leaves and dirt mirrored the lives of the locals - stagnant, boring. Kathryn had only been on the planet two days, but a visit to the planet’s largest population centre - a nearby city of three million - had shown that the planet was just as dull as every other one in this sector. It was hard to imagine that ten thousand parsecs away, there existed the Neran and Solar systems, dense, lively, and bright, with hundreds of billions of people from tens of thousands of planets. Perhaps, one day…

Another voice interrupted her thoughts,

“Chief, we’re about ready up here. If you and the sergeant are done having your little moment, we’ll be on our way.”

Mildly irritated by the joke, Kathryn looked down at her comm badge to reply, but Oakley had reached his first.

“We’re all set. Transporter room, beam us up.”

The Atlantis Air Force has deployed 25,000 Kidros to the Helios system, about twenty light years away from Earth. The system has six planets that will be terraformed by the Kidros, who will then begin colonies.

Ophir Industries is now beginning mass production of Kidros. All of its factories are operating at full capacity.
