[edit] Overview
The Snotra is a new Paranid TS available in Albion Prelude. With heavy shielding, a large cargobay and very reasonable speed, it is a highly effective trade ship. It is quite expensive, but its survivability and cargo-speed ratio justify the price.

Did not actually buy it.
[edit] Physical Characteristics
Quite similar to a standard TS design, the Snotra is one of the less impressive-looking of the new TS ships. It has the standard Paranid Demeter TS core, with armour plating on the cargo boxes and a second bar at the front. There are three turrets visible at the rear of the ship, its left, right and back point defense emplacements.
[edit] Combat
With good shielding and solid turret coverage, including Ion Disruptor and Energy Bolt Chaingun compatibility, the Snotra is more competent in a fight than other TS ships, able to fend off weak attackers relatively well. However, its weapon generators are still only TS level, and even EBCs will drain its reserves of power.

[edit] Suggested Roles
A good sector or universe trader due to its reasonable speed and great survivability, the Snotra is also well suited for general hauling of wares in bulk, though its 1Mcr pricetag means usage as a general freighter could turn out unnecessarily expensive.
