XM206 Pol Class Transport

Xygritt Matriarchy

      Like many military transport vessels, the Pol transport is an old vessel, often neglected in favour of more glamourous vessels. It has seen a handful of updates in the over two centuries of service, but has remained more or less untouched since the design was first laid down.
      Slow and lightly protected, the most current version of the Pol carries sufficient point-defence weaponry to merit a 120 on the Xygritt’s scale.
      The Pol carries is cargo in three large pods, which can be detached and replaced, though as often as not, the pods are unloaded directly.
      Pol transports are also very visible as the predominant civilian long-range haulage vessels. These vessels are very similar to the military Pols, though many have older, slower GV drives and some even have older and more primitive defence systems.
      Pols have also been around long enough to have even been used by pirate vessels, replacing the pods with additional weapons, though the Pol’s poor combat abilities make such substitutions of dubious merit.
