The term SkyShip is used off and on throughout different books in the series and is largely self-explanatory, with one key thing to keep in mind: the difference between a SkyShip and an AirShip.
A SkyShip always has to fly. It may hover close to the ground, but it *cannot land. An AirShip is capable of landing. This is roughly analogous to the difference between a boat and a ship.
- Reasons why SkyShips cannot land very heavily from ship-to-ship: in some casses the ship cannot land because the airframe is to week. Others lack landing gear or ar simply to big to land anywhere. Obviously they have to have been built somewhere and then launched, and to be fair most do have limited landing capability, but the key is whether or not it was designed to stay aloft indefinitely or land.
Skyships are mostly found within the Mage Wars RPG on the MRPG SkyShips page.
