Flight records / Fleet & routes

Ships & Travels

A ship gets you across the stars, makes you a few credits, and occasionally impresses someone other than yourself.

Anvil Carrack

Hansen and I were aboard a Carrack when an unexpected visitor turned up. I’ve filed that encounter under Urban Legends.

Fleet records

These are ships from my old flight records. Some carried cargo, some carried me into a fight, and a few were very good at making the two hard to tell apart.

Mercury Star Runner

Dependable and fast, the MSR is the best well rounded currier vessel currently on the market.

Offering enough space to carry a profitable load of cargo, equipped with a smuggling compartment, designed for long range data reconnaissance, and enough space to entertain. This is the go to ship for profits and exploration. Staring down a foe? Have no fear, with upper and lower turrets, two gimble mounted repeaters for the pilot and a good missile payload you know your going to reach your intended destination safe and secure.
