Faulcon DeLacy has released in early access the first major rework of its classic Anaconda multi-role ship in 456 years. The Anaconda Mk II may be best suited to carrying loads of up to 750 cargo-units over long distances, but it is also highly competent in combat, as an explorer and as a mining vessel. The ship comes in Standard, Stellar and Galactic editions, for 19,020, 38,000 and 69,000 ARX respectively.
