Default New Unit: "Empire" Class Freighter




I'm releasing one of the ships that will be included in the Merchant Fleet Mod: the "Empire" class freighter. Technically, ships named "Empire" weren't a class but many of them tended to have the characteristics featured with this model: a split deckhouse, midships hold, small funnel, and an acoustic hammer on the bow (anti-mine protection). This ship is the exact same size as the Liberty Ship and has its engines amidships, so it doesn't need to be rezoned in order to produce accurate sinking behavior. Tonnage will be 6800-7200 GRT, and it will only be used by the UK and Canada. I would like to release a beta version tomorrow or Monday - let me know if you can help test it.

Also, does anyone have a good picture of an acoustic hammer? Most of the pics I've seen only show this part from a distance.
