Introduction
There are four overarching classes of cargo, which different ware types fit into:
- Container (higher-end items like ship components).
- Energy (Antimatter, Energy, Ion and Plasma Cells).
- Bulk (stuff like minerals and refined materials).
- Liquid (Hydrogen, Ions, Plasma and Water).
There are 19 trade ships capable of carrying Container wares, although 8 are also able to carry at least one other cargo type. Eighteen are designated as "Trade" whereas the Phoenix Marauder is a "Fight" ship (see here for info on the significance of that). For Energy, Bulk and Liquid, there is one less ship because the Sanahar only comes in a Container class.
It's worth noting that Titurel is used as a combat vessel by various pirate factions and and the Lyramekron is heavily-armed along the lines of a "Fight" ship.
Statistics for the above-mentioned ships can be found in the tables below, and notes on trends and outliers follow.

1. Full price estimated to be hull+SEs+crew+drones:
- Hull: Encyclopaedia base price (approximately equal to 2 x sum cost of all components at their base price).
- SE (Surface Elements): Sold by shipyards at approximately 2 x base costs (1 Capital Field Generator = 3 FFPs).
- Crew: 240 k Cr assumed for L/XL ships (65k Captain; 35k Engineer; 140k DO), or 30k for a Pilot.
- Drones: 1.6 M Cr assumed for L/XL ships (5 constructors, 10 Cargo, and 5 Intie. Mk I).
2. The Cargobays of the Styrvok C+E, Lepton (also C+E), Styrvok B+L and Hermod (also B+L) have no restrictions on relative amount of either ware type.
3. The Rahanas C+E can hold 55 k m3 of Container and 65 k m3 of Energy; The Rahanas B+L an hold 85 k m3 of Bulk and 155 k m3 of Liquid.
4. The Scaldis has a split cargobay that holds 40 k m3 Bulk, 90 k m3 of Container, 30 k m3 of Energy and 70 k m3 Liquid.
Table changelog
Date | Change | Notes |
---|---|---|
20.02.2016 | Improved hull cost estimates | Switched hull cost to encyclopaedia base price from 'cost of wares' |
Corrected SE cost estimates | Shipyards sell SEs at 2x their base cost and now this table does too |
