[show]Review without version number

Review this is an excellent ship, I personally see it as the best, cheap freighter for long trade runs or hauling ores. there are 5 turret hardpoints, each capable of supporting a class 7 turret, four facing forward , 2 to each flank, and one on the rear belly, pointing backwards. if being chased, all five can fire backwards on pursuing rogues. the huge cargo space of 2200 is easily enough to make time effective profits on long hauls across the galaxy, and the beefy shield and armour ensures that the only bandits getting at your cargo, are the ones with battleships, and they don't come often. the only possible downside is the sluggish manoeuvrability, which means that the shield will have to do its job, dodging enemy fire from any angle is almost impossible. however, combined with high quality weapons, this beast will keep on going through any sort of ambush and get you to your destination for some much deserved profit. this ship is definitely worth its 10 million credit price tag.
