Piloted primarily by chartist captains, the Long
March class freighter can be found plying the cargo
lanes across the Imperium. Designed as an all pur-
pose cargo carrier this class can be found modified to
serve a number of purposes. It’s maze of labyrinthine
lower decks, while a source of grumbling among the
crew for their narrowness, has proven to be of use to
smugglers on more than one occasion.
Built around much of the same hull as the Huang He
class freighter, the Long March shares much of it’s
strengths and weaknesses. Designed and built by
Song Ti Industries to quickly to take advantage of a
lack of freighters, this class took advantage of older
and more readily available equipment and technolo-
gies. Although some issues found in the Huang He
were addressed some say others were created. While
the ease of finding replacement parts makes mainte-
nance and repairs easier, the class is starting to show
it’s age, and breakdowns are common.

Cargo Hauler: This ship was designed as a
cargo hauler and no amount of retro-fitting will
seriously change that. The Long March comes pre
-equipped with a main cargo hold (Rogue Trader
pg. 203). 2 points of power will have allocated to
power this hold. The allotted SP’s reflect this.
Easy To Find: Due to this class using many very
common components, attempts to find replace-
ment parts are at –20 to reflect the ease of locat-
ing the part. Hint: Look in salvage yards.
