Its manufacturer, Sol’s Colonial Freightliners is one of the oldest interstellar transport corporations, though it has long been eclipsed by the General Hull Designs and Hawking Astronautics. The Prosperity is a simple but reliable and affordable design. It fills something of a middle ground between the Beta Transport and the Nomad. \r\u003cbr\u003e\t\r\u003cbr\u003eThe Prosperity is larger than the Beta, being about the size of a standard heavy cruiser. This size advantage is gives an overall performance boost over its nearest competitor. It carries 12.5% more cargo capacity. The civilian hyperdrive is faster than the Nomad’s Warp Drive, but comparable to the Beta in performance, though the Prosperity has better engines. \r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eThe Prosperity also has slightly stronger shields, rating at 440TXq. Finally, the stock Prosperity has better armament. The Prosperity was one of the first civilian vessels to fit modern 5th-generation point-defence lasers. The original model only rated to 350TXq, but the vast majority of vessels have been refitted over the years up to a modern 450TXq system. Secondly, the Prosperity also mounts a series of light capital-scale laser arrays. These systems only have an accuracy envelope of about 95 000 km and are rated at only 175TXq – not enough to discourage a determined attacker, but enough to deal with substantial debris and even to give an unwary capital ship some concern if it gets within range.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eThe Prosperity, then, has taken the role of frontier transport more readily than the Nomad or the Beta. The Beta remains the most popular due to its low price-tag and running costs, but it is very vulnerable without significant escort over long distance journeys, which is where the Prosperity has the edge.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eThe Prosperity, like both the Nomad and the Beta, is relatively easy to convert by an end user. Its generous cargo space can be easily converted to other purposes. The stock laser array, while not very useful for modern starship combat, is very adequate for dealing with asteroids and the Prosperity has almost cornered the role in both ore-mining and deep-space rescue operations.","brand":"Only-Games","offers":[{"title":"Digital","offer_id":49620059816163,"sku":"a53367a3-38ce-4d84-a402-5e5a12cd315b","price":2.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Physical","offer_id":49620059947235,"sku":"69fff3cd-5a85-44ed-aeb2-9d7c8cec7c8d","price":7.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0299\/7711\/6804\/files\/framed_cae9a92c1b30.png?v=1787846513","url":"https:\/\/only-games.co\/products\/gdhc201-prosperity-transport","provider":"Only-Games","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
