Each type of Sky-ship has the following 3 parts

1. Hull

HP detailed below.
AC detailed below.

Has a Damage Threshold of 15.
If destroyed, you're kinda F█████.

2. Solar Sails

AC: 13

[I]Words so this all fits nicely
If destroyed, the ship will lose all thrust.
Collects sunlight to power the thrusters at the rear of the ship.

3. Arcane Dynamo:

Hp: 75
AC: 17

Can only be targeted once Hull is at 50% hp.
If destroyed, the ship will immediately start crashing.
Uses mana steel and is therefore very dangerous.

Space upgrade

75,000 gp to upgrade the ship to an Astral dynamo, making it space-worthy
