Description:
Dissatisfied with the weapons louadout and performance of the original
Hughie gunship, the Imperial Docks was given another commission: to rework
the gunship to give it more punch, and if possible keep the cost as low
as possible and the speed and maneuverability as high as possible. To
that end the designers worked out exactly that: the Hughie Mark II. Armed
with a heavier weapons loadout, more anti-fighter armaments, the new Hughie
has the same cost as the Hughie Mark I, but at slightly reduced speed.
The Hughie Mark I will be phased out as shipyards recalibrate themselves
to produce Hughie Mark II gunships.
OOC:
Ironically, this "new" design is more faithful to the original
pencil sketch than the first design was.
