Hi?

Sparks here. Er... I've been looking into that cruiser and... It's not looking too great. Neither the Raiders nor the Hessians are willing to share the design with me unless you announce your identity. The Hessians suggested going to the Congress to see if they could locate a hull, but you've probably got better ties there then I do. I'm sorry, I didn't think people'd be so protective of the things. I'll still find I way to pay you, I swear. Just... Er... Keep this to yourselves, alright? I'm on rocky enough ground with the Widerstand already for working with the Rogues. If they found out I was giving this to you... Anyway, let's just keep this here for now, okay?

On the upside, I did manage to find information on the Heimdall buried in our archives. We haven't had too many of them flying lately, with Erich's opinion on the Hessians and all, but it hasn't always been that way. The design might be a little outdated, but it should still be functional - more or less. I've attached it to this transmission for you.

In the meantime, I'll keep looking.

Manufacturer's Summary

---

"Heimdall" is the codename for the latest Red Hessian gunboat project. Named after the mythic Norse guardian, this ship was designed to operate with full efficiency inside the rocky environments of the Hessian controlled parts of the Omega border worlds, all the while maintaining a superior offensive and support capability.

Sarah's Summary

---

The Heimdall's a pretty simple ship, when it comes down to it. The Hessians built it with the sole intent of shooting the other guy and stealing his stuff, which it does quite nicely. It's got a narrow enough front-on profile to dodge most firepower a transport's likely to throw at you, and enough forward-firing guns to be on the tail end of a chase. It's a shame we don't shoot down too many transports then, huh? As an escort, the Heimdall's focus on forward firepower means that it's not ideal, but it's a useful ship to have on your side if you need to slip through the asteroids, hit something hard enough to leave them seeing stars, and vanish again.
