The mining corporations and their holding companies built this class of ship to extract ore and other valuable mineral deposits from rock and ice.

The venerable Hegemon has been in service for many decades with only minor changes to the design. Every few years, a new power core gets swapped in, the shield generators get upgraded, and the windows get polished, but otherwise the core elements have stayed the same since 720 A.S. This is mostly because, until the development of the Annapurna, the Hegemon had no competition, due to its continuing good performance. The ship's sheer bulk makes it difficult to move, but is necessary to house the integrated mineral processing machinery. However, this is usually a worthwhile trade off, since factories will pay a premium for high-purity materials.

The Hegemon is a massive, heavily armored medium transport. It's high hull rating makes adding armor a very effective way of increasing it's survivability - a standard armor type 8 greatly adds to the amount of time this craft can withstand an attack, allowing it's pilot to withdraw to the nearest friendly base. Even more armor is, of course, better, but will cost a relatively high amount of cargo space on the Hegemon.

The Hegemon is a real disappointment. First, with a loadout of Transport Mining Turrets, it does mine extremely well. However getting it to where it does its work is another story. Mining, by definition, takes place in asteroid or rock fields. Navigating such an environment is a misery in one of these ships. It is also very noisy, annoyingly so, even when not in mining mode. I know the argument. Increased manuverability and noise suppression cost money. Well, of course. I would have happily paid another 10 or 15 million for it to manuver well in asteroid fields and be less noisy. Let's face it, folks, you get what you pay for. And even at 37 million, which is 15 million more than the current list price, it will more than pay for itself in two trips (This is on the official server. Some servers offer prices that would pay for it in 1 trip). After that, it's all gravy.

The venerable Hegemon has been in service for many decades with only minor changes to the design. Every few years, a new power core gets swapped in, the shield generators get upgraded, and the windows get polished, but otherwise the core elements have stayed the same since 720 A.S. This is mostly because, until the development of the Annapurna, the Hegemon had no competition, due to its continuing good performance. The ship's sheer bulk makes it difficult to move, but is necessary to house the integrated mineral processing machinery. However, this is usually a worthwhile trade off, since factories will pay a premium for high-purity materials.
