I have a feeling that starting with the C series a person will have to secure some big contracts with companies to make the runs profitable. I am not sure how that's going to work, so any freighter larger than a B for me is going to have to wait for more details
I will give you that, and it takes some planning to get a fleet fleshed out. I am just wining it on a wing and a prayer strapped to the keg of knowledge. But I think I will be ok in the verse. I have my starfarer so I will be making money fairly quick with just fuel.
I thought that this was a pretty cool thread, so with permission, I am posting it here for test to see.

I like that the cat is very modular, and at some point I will use my ccu and get one. but I can get that anytime. the starfarer will be on sell in 90 minutes, for 24 hours. and there's no question of it being ready for 3.0 as far as some cargo goes.
Here it is
It does say its of modular design in the MISC description also. as per being able to haul cargo pods. this ship is definitely the one to get.
still, 900 verses a cats 500, its a no brainer. plus you can refine fuel with no cost, and we all love free money
I also remember seeing a picture of the tanks on a starfarer replaced with cargo pods, will have to look for that tonight.
