Synopsis

Crafted by a group of enterprising Zoner engineers seeking to innovate the next generation of deep space escort vessels; the King Fisher sought to address many of the perceived issues that plagued the lauded Eagle which dominated the heavy escort market. Unfortunately the results of this endeavor fell short of expectations.

The vessel's five overpowered engines, designed to meet the sluggish responses imposed by her equally overpowered generator core, competed to ultimately starve the vessel's weapon grid in turn warding off more than the most casual interest by Zoner or Core military interests and dooming the vessel to live within the shadow of the far more efficient Eagle. However, her simple borderworld design and civilian power rating attracted a show of interest within a number of manufacturers seeking to attract roaming freelancers and showboat daredevils.
