    For a modest set of staffing requirements, the Xepolite Freighter provides you a big 9 RANGE that can speed you along the spaceline. Even its SHIELDS of 7 are not bad. Where the Xepolite Freighter fails a bit is WEAPONS, with only 5, though as long as you aren't planning on battle, it may not be a problem. You can always equip the Freighter with System 5 Disruptorsimage, should your priorities change.

    Combo:

    • Xepolite Freighter + Deliver Suppliesimage: The perfect ship for completing this mission. Using your RANGE 9, you can get there and back faster than your opponent can come and hinder you.
