Notes:
Another solid transport ship, the Traveler is an excellent mid-size cargo vessel. As with all
dedicated Solrain transports, it possesses the largest cargo hold of any vessel in its class. It also
moves and accelerates reasonably well – better than a Wyvern but not quite as nimble as the
Hurricane. The design is fairly stylish as well, although the “rear spoiler” also has a practical
aspect: it is the primary weapon and targeting system mount on the vessel (freeing up more room
on the main chassis for cargo space.) Additionally, the craft is capable of mounting the powerful
Alpaa shield system, giving it superior defensive capabilities compared to other craft of its class.
Round it off with appreciable MODx and missile mounts, and you end up with a very worthy
transport vessel. It’s still no match for an aerospace fighter one-on-one, but it is more than
capable of defending itself against low-class Conflux marauders or assisting in its own defense
against pirates.
