[edit] Overview

The main RCS transporter ship. All other ships have one pod bay, this ship has eight!

It is also your only tractor. You can pull any other ship (except the star port, of course), speeding up the Escort or Heavy Cruiser by 30ly/turn.

[edit] Special

• Only a Binary Class Star Port or Bases with an Arerran Capital can build this ship.
• It has Gravity Sensors, which detect ships with Gravitonic Mine Dropper, Warp Chunneler, Gravitonic Accelerator, or Gravity Well Generator within 400 ly.
• It is subject to the special rules applying to ships of the Reunited Colaition of Systems.

[edit] Ship Devices

• Mine Sweeper Array
• Boarding Laser
• Gravity Sensors

[edit] Useful Configurations

Generally: do not use Transwarps on the Interstellar, put them onto the Everygreen instead.

• fill up with troops and high guards, switch on the Boarding Laser and try to intercept small ships in the first 50 ticks.
