Overview

The Hyena-class is the smallest ship available to the Syndicate, operated by the Gorlex Marauders. Though it can stand it's own in a fight, it is intended as a salvage vessel.

Gameplay

The Hyena is a mining/salvage ship. Its capacity to obtain great minerals and dispatch more powerful fauna than other ships comes at the cost of just about anything that isn't mining or fighting.

As a Crewmember:

You're going to be mining, as is the nature of a mining ship. The Hyena's special gimmick is that you're also armed. This creates the need for ammunition, and balancing your gear between a soldier and a miner. Don't get too cocky, though.

As an Officer:

97% of the time, you will be sitting on the ship piloting the miners elsewhere. Perhaps it is in your best interest to barter for equipment you are lacking in with other ships, in exchange for your plentiful capacity to lift minerals off the earth.
