The Dwayne is one of the older classes of ships commonly seen on the Frontier, and one of the few such classes that doesn’t also carry a reputation for nightmarish conditions or high accident rates. Originally conceived of as a “mothership” for Nanotrasen mining shuttles that could enable long-duration mining missions at minimal cost, severe budget overruns and issues with the mining shuttle docking system left Nanotrasen with a massive number of mostly-completed hulls upon the project’s cancellation. These hulls were then quickly refurbished and sold on the civilian market, where they proved an immediate success on the Frontier. Contemporary Dwaynes can typically be found carrying a variety of mining equipment and extensive modifications unique to their captains. Recently-available aftermarket modifications have solved the Dwayne’s longstanding shuttle dock issues, allowing modern Dwaynes to finally serve their original design purpose, provided the captain is able to source a shuttle.

"An earlier product produced by Nanotrasen Spaceworks, 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, the original Dwayne-class with it's shuttles were only mass-produced for Nanotrasen Stations.
After the Corporate Wars, looking to make a quick buck and salvage what they could from the large number of hulls they had ready, Nanotransen sold the rest of these hulls to the civilian market without the shuttles. Later redesigned to replace both empty hangars with cargo and mining bays, the Mark.IIs turned out to be a smash hit."

Introduction
The Mk. II Dwayne is a reliable ship designed for mining and cargo purposes. It comes with two spacious hangars, that give it a lot of storage space and flexibility with potential renovations, as well as plenty of equipment that allows them to mine efficiently from the get-go.
List of standard equipment and features:
- A solar panel setup for generating power.
- Two hangars - one meant for mining equipment storage, and another for general storage. Starboard one can also be easily renovated, if need be.
- A functional smelter setup.
- Three Flaming Arrow rifles and a Detective special revolver - enough weaponry to arm majority of the crew roundstart.
- A large amount of mining gear, including handheld drills, scanners, EVA suits and more.
- An adorable western pet - Frank the turtle!
Gameplay
- Mining - Dwayne's intended purpose is mining. You'll do it either directly with handheld drills or by investing in a stationary drill. You can also take drilling jobs from the outpost for some bonus cash. As of right now however, ore holds mostly roleplay value, as it's not used for much outside of fuel.
- Cargo - Dwayne has plenty of storage spaces. This lets you get a little wild with organization of ruin loot and other gear, or maybe even make an entire gimmick around performing cargo work!
- Construction - Those storage spaces can also be renovated, if not used for cargo. With enough effort, you can put anything you want there!

The Kilo-class is a miniscule mining ship that stretches the definition of an independently-capable spacecraft. Beginning life long ago as a series of purpose-built mining shuttles intended for use on Frontier outposts, progressive cycles of over-engineering for a longer mission duration eventually produced the lumpen, claustrophobic Kilo seen today. Once quite numerous, Kilos are still a common “barn find” on abandoned stations and forgotten storage bays, and their extreme age and poor storage conditions typically leaves them in especially poor condition. Kilo crews are often considered to be quite eccentric even by Frontier standards, and some spacers insist even a well-balanced spacer will quickly come unglued in the Kilo’s “unique” environment.
