I grant the permission for all non-commercial redistribution of my work, but I would like to know if you put it on a website or the like.

3,000,000-ton Supply Planetoid v1.0 (GURPS Traveller TL12) Copyright 2015 by Onno Meyer After the Fifth Frontier War, some Imperial strategists suggested to take a page from the Zhodani playbook and to pre-position supplies for the next round of fighting deep in Zhodani space. The plan called for large nickel-iron asteroids, fitted with maneuver drives from a Tigress-class dreadnought -- several units were available after the war -- and filled with spare parts, millions of missiles, and billions of rations. The ships would then make their sublight flights into Zhodani space and go into hiding until they are needed. The ship has a super-heavy planetoid hull. The main defense are three close escorts and fifty heavy fighters, but she also has ten meson bays. The 1,781 core crew are 30 command staff, 1,612 engineering, 22 gunnery, 39 medical, 24 service, 54 flight deck crew. The subcraft have another 139 crew. Subassemblies: PL Hull +17.
