energy_recharge_rate 4.5

max_flight_roll 2

Hi ADCK,
Looks fairly sensible as 'Good' ships go. Pretty tough with the energy banks (is that 9? - that's quite lot) and recharge rate. Top speed is not excessive for a powerful ship, and manoevrability looks very good for a largish ship. How much is it?

As for the energy banks, yeah it is 9 (same as the Imperial Courier)
Also it can't get military shield booster (although comes with normal shield booster as an extra)

Tough, but not stupid-tough, and in line with this class of ship, I guess. It's certainly OK with me.

Reminds me of the liberator, nice ship.

Hm. When I last looked, my IC had 8, not 9.

Encountered my first Imp Trader earlier today. Must say it looks really nice, and even with my non-shader computer it looked quite shiny. It seemed to take a lot longer to kill than the Imp Courier though.

Woah... met a pirate piloting this ship today. Space suddenly became more colorful with it individually colored laser beams
Meets my wish for a greater difficulty very well.
I chickened out, though. In comparison to an Imperial "Trader", I am a genuine trader without military shields and with just ONE front laser.
