V'lar
Common Craft

The V’lar are a race of jellyfish-like aliens who typically travel about attached to a humanoid host whom they puppet via filaments insinuated into the host’s nervous system. Their ships are a hybrid design utilizing common technological elements (such as engines and weapons) built into an organically grown hull.

It is expected that the V’lar will be replaced by whatever alien races inhabit your particular game setting and that the ships will be used for fully biological, plant, or even undead craft in addition to hybrid designs. The PDF documents include renderings and orthographic views to support these alternate themes.

Three common V’lar ship types are included in this product. First up is the Coleoptera-class cargo ship, commonly called the “Beetle” due to its shape. It features a huge cargo hold, carries a crew of 14, and is lightly armed. Next is the Pestilence-class, or “Manta”, bomber. This combat ship carries an impressive amount of ordnance - either bombs and bioweapons for planetary assault, or ship-to-ship missiles for space combat. The Manta is also equipped with several automated plasma arc turrets and a breaching bore for boarding actions. It requires a crew of four and has eighteen additional pods for soldiers. Lastly, the Bucrania-class heavy fighter is presented. Originally dubbed the “Ox Skull”, it is now usually just called a “Skull Fighter”. With a crew of two, this craft is equipped for dogfights as well as either bombing runs or missile attacks.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
