AGAR

Formerly an ore hauler, the Agar has seen it's share of asteroid belts - 
in fact that's where it's most at home. Over the years the Agar has 
undergone some some changes making it quite adept at tracing down 
freeloaders trying to hide amongst the rocks. Rellying less on speed than 
brute force, the Agar has augmented sheilding and a small but formidable arsenal. 
While a pair of lasers might sufice in less hostile environments, the Agar has 
been furthur outfitted with plasma charged mass driver cannons and a pair of 
300fw Turbolasers. The turbolasers are stowed for normal flight to reduce the 
chance of inadvertant damage. The Agar also employs a small pair of loop shunt 
gravity grapples for latching onto or repulsing objects up to twice it's own 
size - even without it's other weapons these make for a devestating battering 
ram effect.
Pilot Sven Hardy knows just how much damage his ship can take and is not shy 
about pushing it tpo the limit engaged in Oddjobber activities. Essentially a 
conservationist, Sven endeavors to keep asteroid feilds clear of man made debris 
and has been quoted as saying "There's nothing more tranqil than rocks smashing rocks!"
