Notes:
Following suit with Cromforge (indeed, perhaps the last remnant of the cooperative agreement
between T&P and Cromforge before the Quant/Sol War of the Truth broke out), the Quarrier has
recently been upgraded to a competent level. Unfortunately, much like the Lodestar the Quarrier
falls somewhat short of both its contemporaries; it cannot mine as fast as the Harmattan and it
does not possess the defensive capabilities of the Simurgh. Surprisingly, it does accelerate the
best out of all three Light Miners (the Harmattan mounts heavier mining guns, but acceleration is
acceleration.) It is still a much better mining craft than the Traveler and performs its duty
adequately. The same basic facts as other Light Miners still apply; a size three ECM pod can
keep Conflux spawns away, and some miners mount an offensive weapon or two in case passing
pilots don’t kill the Flux that attack them. And it is generally agreed that the Quarrier looks far too
“cool” to be a mere mining craft.
