It was a long, wet & boring weekend.   It's turning into a long and still raining week, so you have to find things stuff to fill your day when the rain removes your sun-lounging opportunities and the fact that the kids are at home (half-term) and interrupting your normal routine.   So I spent some time looking through updated ship stats.

I feel some melting coming on.    Specifically I think I'll be melting my MISC Freelancer and swapping it for an Anvil Carrack.

QuoteMISC Freelancer
MISC is known for producing efficient, modular, middle-of-the-road ships, primarily transports of different sizes. Freelancers are used as long haul merchant ships by major corporations, but they are just as frequently repurposed as dedicated exploration vessels by independent captains who want to operate on the fringes of the galaxy. Don’t let some of the alien technology in the cockpit surprise you: the Freelancer’s design owes several of its internal systems to a lend-lease deal with the Xi’An.

QuoteAnvil Carrack
The Anvil Carrack has been the vanguard of every UEE exploration effort in recent years. Featuring reinforced fuel tanks for long-duration flight, a highly advanced jump drive array and a dedicated computer core room that allows it to put the maximum processing power into jump charting operations. Originally a military exclusive, the Carrack is now available for civilian use as a pathfinder spacecraft. Features on-board accommodations to allow for truly self-sufficient flight, including crew medical and repair facilities, and a mapping-oriented sensor suite capable of always charting a route home!

Roll on the next ship sale.

Also after a second ship and was considering a freelancer, Carrack seems like a better fit. :)

Hopefully the Carrack will be able to defend itself as well as if not better than the Freelancer. We need to await the relative stats.

Yeah same - as freelancer owner the carrack looks tempting but not enough info has been released for me to switch
