- STRENGTHS
- Large hold: Potbelly freighters have an emense open cargo space on the underside of the vessel. Capable of carrying massive amounts of grain, liquids and other cargo that doesn't require containers.
- WEAKNESSES
- Not combat oriented: The Potbelly lacks and real firepower. Instead it relies more on defensive measure, making it poor in open combat.
- DESCRIPTION
These medium sized freighters are designed with a large bulbous haul that stretches from bow to stern, giving the ship a potbelly look for which it's nicknamed. Originally designed solely as a grain freighters for agri worlds, they were given secondary features to double as liquid haulers, mainly water. The internal hull is equipped with heaters to quickly dry out the hold to be loaded with grain immediately after, that way to prevent damage to the grain. The entire bottom of the ships hull, and some of the upper half, is all cargo space. Leaving roughly the top third of the vessel for crew quarters, amenities, cockpit and engine room.
