Hi
I have 2 questions

1.) The Wailing Doom has "Size +4" but is missing "Large". Is this an oversight or does "Size +4" not necessarily include "Large"?

2.) The rules for chartering a ship say "plus fuel costs". Does that mean they are included or must be paid in addition to the listed price? And is the fee per ship or per person? So if 5 persons charter a steam launch, is it 100$ or 500$ per day?

Thanks

Size +4 is the minimum to be Large, but it's not automatic that a creature has to have it. The Wailing Doom is one of those exceptions (part of its "Size" is its density).

"Plus fuel costs" means the cost of fuel has to be paid in addition to the chartering cost.

The cost to charter is "per day" for the ship. That's why fuel costs are additional. There's the minimum cost to retain the ship and crew for the day plus any additional cost for fuel based off usage.

If the ship is just used to cross to a local island and back, then fuel cost is minimal, but if a steam lauch was used to travel to a location 40 miles away and back, then they are looking at paying for 2 lbs. of ghost rock for the trip in addition to the $20 retainer.
