# Tenders and Bulk Freighters *Openframe Ship Catalog, Modular Hulls of the Antaean League for Void Drifters. Source: https://exodusnds.com/sourcebooks/openframe/tenders-and-bulk-freighters* A tender takes the job to the ship; a bulk freighter takes the ship to the job. Both are mostly slots. ##### Model 50 Industrial Vessel *An Asymmetric Utility Hull mission tender in two versions, v1.0 and v1.1.* The Model 50 is a mission tender: a workshop, a lab or a clinic on a spine, taken to wherever the job is. The mission section is the point of the ship, and it swaps between voyages.

**Version notes.** **Model 60 v1.0.** The hull the Vehicles Manual prints as the Model 60. **v1.1.** Two more Module Slots and 80 more Cargo, with two more pods on the habitation branch. **v1.2.** A Hull block, a point of Power Capacity, two more Module Slots, a doubled section of spine amidships and a flat radiator panel. Four Licensed slots now. **Common Variants.** Bulk freighter, Colony transport, Mobile trade center, Fleet tender, Relief ship, Station-support vessel, Mobile shipyard platform. **Version Table** | Version | Change | Price | Licensed slots, fee a year | Upgrade from previous | |:--|:--|--:|:-:|--:| | Model 60 v1.0 | Published first version | 6,200,000cr | None | — | | Model 60 v1.1 | +2 Module Slots, +80 Cargo | 6,478,000cr | 2, 51,800cr | 10 points, 375,000cr | | Model 60 v1.2 | +1 Hull block, +1 Power Capacity, +2 Module Slots | 7,032,000cr | 4, 112,500cr | 20 points, 750,000cr | ##### At the Table: Swapping a Module A module swap is the Openframe ship doing its job. Use it when a crew changes what the ship carries or does. **At an authorized yard.** A clean commercial module installs or removes in half the normal time with no check. The yard needs the module, the slot and a gantry. The cost is the module price and the yard's fee. **Salvaged or illegal.** A salvaged, incompatible or illegal module needs a Craft check, with the integration modifier for its builder (Chapter 11); the Mission Modules benefit removes 1 Bane Die from it. A non-licensed module in a Licensed slot is a Hard Craft check. **Licensed slots.** A module in a Licensed slot works only while the license is current. A lapsed license shuts the module down at the end of the round the audit finds it. **Mismatched manifests.** A module that does not match the ship's manifest raises Authority Heat at the next port. Updating the manifest at a yard is routine and costs a day. Back-lot module fit
