Strike the Earth!

An earlier product produced by Nanotrasen shipyards, the Dwayne-class was originally a dedicated shuttle carrier intended as a replacement for expensive planet or asteroid-side mining installations. However, due to the project running into endless logistics issues their companion blue-space shuttles never got delivered. Looking to salvage what they could from the large number of hulls they had ready Nanotransen sold the vast majority of these hulls to the civilian market where enterprising captains quickly converted them into small mining ships with generous cargo bays. It is often said on the frontier that you can identify a captain by his Dwayne as no two ships look alike.

Gameplay

The Dwayne class is a good generalist ship designed around mining. It comes with an equipped med-bay and a LOT of space to work with. It is also notable as one of the few ships that are pretty much self-sufficient off the bat coming with a fully functioning solar array and external airlocks off both sides and back allowing the Dwayne to easily access deposits around it wherever it lands, this in combination with the ships free space for loot and building makes the Dwayne both a miners and engineers dream.

Quick bullet rundown of features and equipment:

• ORM and Ore Silo
• Mining gear and equipment
• Hardsuits
• Food and drink vendors
• Wide hallways, stern and completely empty sealable starboard hangar
• Stocked medbay with operating computer, Nanomed, defib and sleeper
• Solar arrays, cell charger, 2 PACMANS and tools
• Janitorial supplies

What Roles?

The roles that can be selected aboard the Osprey-class are as follows:

• 1 Captain.
• 1 Ship's Doctor.
• 1 Ship's Engineer.
• 2 Asteroid Miner.
• 3 Deckhand.

How Should I Pilot This?

The Dwayne is likely one the few ships with long term power off the bat. Your solar arrays and generators means you won't likely need to rush to build more power, enabling you to pursue whatever goals you desire. This means you can take things easy at the start and get straight to mining. Whilst your basic needs are taken care of you may want to consider getting enough resources to trade for an RnD unit so you can start your own research or some food so you don't have to eat out of vending machines.
