Commercial MagazinesI've added a non-military magazine to v7.2. There are two versions; one with 100 capacity and one with 500 capacity.
In general terms they are cheaper but less efficient in terms of space then military magazines. Also, they have a 100% explosion chance if hit, so don't apply for a job on a commercial ammunition transport
Commercial Magazine - Capacity 100, Size 12, Cost 25, Crew 5, HTK 1, RP 2000
Commercial Magazine - Capacity 500, Size 50, Cost 100, Crew 20, HTK 1, RP 5000
Even if you armour the ship, one of the magazines could still explode due to shock damage. As the magazines are fairly large, if they are hit then the ship is probably gone, so it would be a Bad Idea to take a commercial ammunition transport along with the battle fleet.
With civilian magazines and non-military maintenance modules, you can now produce this type of ship. As shown below it carries 4000 maintenance supply points, five million litres of fuel and has a magazine capacity of 2000. Very expensive if lost however.
