Read my title!

READ IT!!!

COnsidering making some freighter escorts, I just dunno which one to use

I think the proper answer is: none.

Especially for escort duty, freighters may have fair firepower, but they're big and slow, and wont be able to stick to a bomber that's attacking your transports.

If you're going with any of them though, I'd probably give my vote for that renzu corp freighter, I fought watsas' renzu freighter with my hogosha, and even though I would have won had it been a 1 on 1 (had some stupid merc join in and start shooting me), it was holding it's own fairly well.

The one conveniently named, "Combat Service Freighter".

Eye em aych oh.

Nothing can cathc a SNAC, so that aint an issue. Most of our escorts justr hunt pirates, mostly



and CSF is kinda .....junkerish

I love the Bactrian - its comfortably ruthless, but for me the complete package is the Correo. Traders beware.

Never said you wanted a neutralish freighter.

Hm... Grizzlies?

once i have fought against a correo in a eagle, and the freighter did not perfome that bad, eventually he came away fleeing.
and i attacked a harvester drone in a rheinlannd armored transport, i died, but it was hell of a fun.
i guess a correo with salamankas and tziona turrets should be the vest.

The Clydesdale is surprisingly good. Three Deb guns and five class 5 turrets (only 4 point forward or back), with a heavy VHF power-plant, packs a punch

Hrm, CLde huh?

Ill try a grizzly

The one the Hogosha uses. (Name escapes me.)
