Hercules

The Hercules is a Freighter with the 3rd highest cargo hold currently in-game.

Description
The Hercules is a Trade ship that has a massive cargo hold. It has crates inside of it and has  its  docking port and entrance in the front. It has a large engine on the back that emits a lot of fire. There are two grates on the front that look like exhaust vents.

Interior
Inside the Hercules, you'll enter a garage, which contains a few crates and a teleporter. Go up, and there are 2 passenger seats with screens and some controls in front of them. Ahead of those is the pilot's seat, with some controls and facing a window.

Advantages

 * The Hercules has a large cargo hold with 1500 cargo space, allowing a player to make large amounts of profit in a single run, along with salvaging multiple wrecks without having to dock before continuing to loot.
 * This ship is also great when transferring items into your Warehouse.

Disadvantages

 * Hercules is extremely slow, with a max speed of 65, and a semi-slow turn speed of 0.4, it heavily relies on its warp to get around.


 * Pirates consider a Hercules a high-value target because they are slow and easy targets.
 * Despite its description, it is easily destroyed by any capable pilot.
 * Low health for the price.

Safety

 * Make sure to trade in a faction that is in no wars and has strong allies. If there are none, go to a new server. If all servers have wars, try your best to be safe.
 * Go to the Mega Base when it is safe. Always check your route if you're in a war, there might be a pirate waiting for you.
 * Check how far away the closest alien is and where it is heading to.

Trivia

 * Hercules garage can contain a small-winged fighter in it.
 * The Hercules is named after the Roman demi-god and hero.
 * Hercules design is based on the Hercules from Starcraft 2.
 * The Hercules has a small secret compartment in the entrance to the ship. This may be homage to the secret compartment in the Millennium Falcon from Star Wars.
 * This can give you a profit of 1350 if you get a full cargo of silicate at a 5 price and sell at Mega Base
