STRENGTHS

Hauler: Capable of hauling massive amounts of Cargo, depending on the variant. Can even take Tie Fighters with them no matter the variant
Bite: No matter the Variant, it possesses potent Weapons
Aegis: Immense defenses, making it very dangerous for smaller vessels to attack. If anyone does manage to board it, they deal with cramped spaces and deadly Droid Marines.
Anonymous: Crafted to be physically indistinguishable on the outside from a Gozanti, with no serial numbers or makers marks on any part
Self Reliance: It's Power Plant allows it to run purely on Solar Energy for up to 7 months before recharging by a star. It's mostly automated by a Droid Brain.
Go anywhere: Fully Submersible for long periods of time to hide itself or it's precious cargo

WEAKNESSES

Speed: Snails pace in space (Dare you to say that ten times fast)
Slow Turns: Turns like a snail also
Weapon Recharge: The Military Transport Version's Composite Beam Laser needs two minutes after every firing to recharge. The rear turret can only fire it's beam for 7 seconds before needing 21 to recharge
Range: It's heavy Laser Cannons have only half the range of typical heavy laser cannons
Recharge Vulnerability: The best time to hit it is when it's Recharging by a star, as it takes several hours to fully recharge and it must remain still while doing so. Also, any damage it's arrays suffer while collecting Solar Energy could cause a catastrophic failure in the plant
A.I. Dependant: The Droid Brain is linked to the weapons and piloting systems. If the Brain suffers critical failure, crew must spend laborious minutes attempting to get back control of the ship via back up command consoles in Engineering

DESCRIPTION

Ghost Retrofitted by Scion Mobile Shipyards, The Moonlighter Hauler serves as one of House Io's safest, most Anonymous ways of making hard credits, shipping nearly anything from War Materials to luxury goods, with no questions asked. Any pirate picking this ship, thinking it's an ordinary Gozanti is in for a nasty surprise

Civilian vessels/stations are defined as having an armament rating of 'None' and, if they have a hangar rating, should not be able to field a compliment of starfighters in a combat capacity.

That last part is from the Starship Templates. Anything you consider Civilian, has to have no armament, whatsoever. I cannot continue the review until this matter is resolved, either making the complete submission no armament or removing the Civilian portion.

Let me know what you will do.
