BRAD'S COMMENTS: An Orion-Rigellian freighter, out of the module "A Doomsday Like Any Other", kindly scanned (at large scale!) and submitted by fan/player Daniel Kurtz. I've not played it yet, but based on its mass and stats I'd say this freighter is like most others: a strategy piece, to be captured or destroyed as part of a given scenario's conditions to win, not intended for direct ship-to-ship melees. Kudos too to Todd, and the Cross family, who also submitted this ship. I've been getting multiple submissions of the same ships as of late, and have been trying to give credit where credit is due. Thankyou, gentlemen!

Dwarfstar Class III Freighter
Notes: Manufactured by Orinco Shipbuilders, a Rigellian company, the
Dwarfstar Class of freighters is Orion in design. Small, fast, and
expensive, these ships are ideal for frontier traders who need to be prepared
for trouble.
The three models of Dwarfstar Class ships
currently in production at the Rigel VIII shipyards are basically similar,
differing primarily in armament. The Mark I design was not armed, and is
primarily employed in fast courier duty and to carry small, urgent cargoes
between worlds where no trouble is expected. Although popular with some
Federation customers, this model never won widespread acceptance in the Orion
Colonies.
The Mark II Dwarfstar is a lightly-armed model,
suitable for frontier traders who need weapons on occasion, but are still more
oriented to flight over fight. The Mark III is much more heavily-armed and
shielded than its counterparts. Company literature claims that the ship is
intended for trade in hazardous areas, but this model is more commonly used as a
raider by Orion pirate bands, and many are in service as fast corvettes or
gunboats with the various Orion governments.
