Designed for stealth work as both an atmospheric and
interstellar craft, the Shroud is a fairly high end craft. From
the factory, these ship come in a rich midnight blue. The paint
itself is designed to minimize reflection of sensor rays, and most
Shrouds are usually found in that color. The shape of the ship and
it's various passive counter-measures make the Shroud very
difficult to detect by sensors of all forms. It adds a +3D to the
difficult of sensor detection checks, and unless the opponent makes
a difficult sensor roll, it subtracts 2D from the fire control of
enemy weapons, as it jams targeting sensors as well as all others.
Shrouds are equipped with high powered repulsorlifts, that
give them their phenomenal atmospheric movement rate, when used in
conjunction with the Ion Drives. When the Ion drives are
disengaged, it travels at 350; 1000 kph, but it's moves in eerie
silence, enabling it to travel within several meters of opposing
troops without being detected.
Due to the already high price of the Shroud's technology,
CarnShips added on a number of extras, to make the Shroud a rather
luxurious ship, giving their customers the feeling that they are
getting good value for their money. The interior is primarily
velvet, leather, fine woods, and concealed control panels.
Interior lockers open and close smoothly and quietly, and are
virtually undetectable against the background. For those that can
afford it, the Shroud is an ideal ship, and is quite popular among
members of various criminal organizations.
