Overview

The insectoid Oresrians are renowned for their physical similarity to the feared Thargoid race. These similarities are shared with the ships of the two races, which have some design features in common. This unfortunate similarity has lead to several well-publicised 'friendly-fire' incidents involving twitchy-fingered young Jamesons opening up on Oresrian ships before properly establishing their true identities.

Although slower and less heavily armed than a Thargoid Invasion Ship, the Oresrian Trader is roughly the same size and is a dedicated tradeship rather than a combat vessel.

In recent times many of these ships have become available on the second-hand market, showing a relaxing of the traditional Oresrian reluctance to trade technology.

Note: The current version does not have a Shipyard.plist, so the Player version of this ship is currently unavailable.

In other news, there have been a spate of reports claiming that GalCop pilots are once more mistaking Oresrian vessels for Thargoid warships. Please remember that these races are physiologically similar and have utilised similar design elements in their ships. Always check your fire before commenting an assault on a suspected enemy vessel.


The Readme Stuff

... I've finally finished the Oresrian ship I started work on some months back. It is classed as a trader, and is based mostly on the specs for the Anaconda. This ship is available to players too, but is untested in a docking environment, so watch out.

As always, feedback is welcome - especially bug reports and kudos!!
