Margin

The Federation operates a galaxy-spanning courier network, and the Margin-class is the hull they trust with the contracts that have penalty clauses. Speed 4 with 25% fuel efficiency means 56 jumps on a tank — fast enough to beat deadlines, rangy enough to reach any market without refueling. The cargo bay holds 90 units with the default expander, sized for premium express loads rather than bulk freight. One free defense slot and one free utility slot let pilots refit between contracts: shield booster for contested routes, scanner for new markets. The Federation prices courier contracts by the hour. The Margin makes every hour count.
