Double-Wide Zeppelins  

     Designed to maximize cargo space on a zeppelin, this variation is comprised of two normal zeppelin hulls, attached in the middle by a large cargo bay. These zepps can carry almost 50% more cargo than two individual ones could. Some military versions exist, used as airplane carriers. Both are slower than normal zepps, so are not often used.  
  

Rules  
     Mostly the same as normal zeppelins. The two zepp hulls are spaced 2 hexes apart. The space from gas cell 2 to gas cell 4 is where the extra cargo bay is located, filling the space between the two zepps. Neither side facing the cargo bay has engine pods or guns.  

     The cargo bay itself is comprised of two sides, facing front and back. Each side has 60 points of armor (3 x 20 boxes), with just a cargo space in between. The bay's To-hit number is 3.  

     Military double-wides can carry up to 150 planes and 14 autogyros (the latter launch and land on the top of the cargo bay). These bays have 80 points of armor (4 x 20) on each side.
