Description

Designed and built for the Council of Heads a small pocket empire in the Hanstone Sector. This is a single copy prototype of this vessel constructed for the council leaders. Using a native nickle-iron asteroid, advanced TL–13 jump 4 drives and fuel tanks were fitted. The yacht carries a single 20ton launch as a service and interface vehicle.
