The budget end of the heavy freighter market, the Mammoth in many ways is little more than a cargo bay with some engines attached. Although poorly served in terms of the quantity of its weapon mountings this is somewhat offset by their potential power. The twin turrets are particularly effective in guarding the vulnerable engine array, but this is at the expense of the ship’s prow and the defence of this area depends on its massive hull plating and single plasma cannon. Despite this aspect many owners feel that the vessel’s firepower is more than adequate since it’s focused towards the area where it’s most needed and the Mammoth forms the backbone of many logistic enterprises. |
