- Space: The ship not only has enormous hangar bays and internal cargo bays, it can effortlessly mount external containers for shipping and house several mine crawlers for planetary deployment.
WEAKNESSES
- Weak: In its standard configuration, the heavy freighter has no offensive armament and only simple defensive armament meant for environmental hazards or potential pirate attacks.
- Huge: The ship is a heavy freighter, designed to cater to a variety of roles, but its size could potentially restrict its access to spaceports and docks.
- Basic: A utilitarian ship, the Cosmos-class freighter doesn’t excel in arguably anything other than storing ludicrous amounts of cargo and craft.
- Support: In its current configuration, the ship doesn’t have the ability to house military craft effectively.
DESCRIPTION
The lifeline of Hex Incorporated and the single most used vehicle in the company’s galaxy-spanning fleet, the Cosmos-class is an enormous freighter designed to fulfill one purpose. Move cargo.
Whether it is ore or reservoirs, mining ships, crawlers, food or passengers, the Cosmos-class can handle it easily. Sometimes even all of the above if organized correctly. Another useful aspect that greatly expands its capabilities is the several mounting points for external cargo containers, allowing the enormous freighter to carry even more cargo from one end of the galaxy to the other.
