A SHIP is:

  • 100 studs in length
  • Minifig scale
  • Designed for space travel

It is a badge of honor for any human to be able to field a SHIP in battle.

SHIP Classes

The proper categorization of SHIPs is under constant debate. However, unlike Microspace, there are no international treaties to classify SHIPs. Classification is based loosely on human naval classes, using length in studs and general function as guidance. The most important rule is, of course, "Everyone is the Boss of Their Own Toys" and self-classifications are generally accepted by the international community.

Class Size Function
Corvette 90-110 Studs Fast, forward attack
Starfighter combat
"Hero" ships
Frigate 90-110 Studs Escort/support
Capital ship combat
Destroyer 120-150 Studs Capital ship and starfighter combat
Cruiser 150-200 Studs SHIP to SHIP engagement
Battleship 200+ Studs Fleet flagship

The terms "Heavy" and "Light" are often added when a SHIP is between classes. Heavy typically indicates that a ship is used in a role above its size class. Light typically indicates that a ship is slightly smaller than its functional class. Thus, a Heavy Corvette is roughly equivalent to a Light Destroyer. Additional terms may be added to indicate more specific functions, such as "Carrier" for vessels that carry two or more starfighters.
