Description:
While there are a variety of bulk freighters on the market, none of them are recognizable as belong to Eshan Industrial Corporation. In the name of branching out into the non-military sector, the new head of the company has proposed the concept of a bulk freighter designed simply for the transportation of goods from EIC facilities to their respective buyer's location. In this vein, the ArcShel was designed and proposed by the brightest minds that EIC has to offer.
While it may seem that this is a very ordinary, mundane vessel, the reason that it's revolutionary is in its modularity, and the plan that was deduced involving that modularity. That plan will be discussed in an upcoming submission.
This ship was designed, and simply so, to convey goods from one place to the next in a reasonably expeditious manner while providing itself with a means to fight off bands of marauding pirates. As such, it's reasonably fast for its side and purpose, although lightly armed. The shields counteract the light armament, providing protection long enough for assistance to arrive in the even that the ships are ambushed. All in all, a simple and effective design.
Development Thread: None unless requested.
Intent: To create a bulk freighter for the use of Eshan Industrial Corporation and for sale.
Who Can Use This: EIC and its customers.
