Argosy

Standard	Modified
Description	Variants
The Argosy is a ship that performs respectably in both cargo hauling and combat.
== Description ==
The Argosy from Southbound Shipyards is very popular with merchants not because of its capacity, which is actually slightly smaller than the Syndicate Freighter, but because it can hold its own in combat even against a small pirate fleet.
The Argosy is also a very easy ship to upgrade with faster engines or more powerful weapons as needed, so many privately owned Argosies have very different capabilities than the stock model.
== Location ==
The Argosy can be purchased at the following ports:
*Buccaneer Bay, Algenib
*Covert, Gienah
*Glaze, Aldhibain
*Greenrock, Shaula
*Rust, Kraz
*Smuggler's Den, Thule
*Wayfarer, Tarazed
*Zug, Zubeneschamali

== Performance Information ==
With decent cargo room, passenger bunks, and outfit space for customization, the Argosy is a good choice for captains who want to occasionally engage in combat while still making a profit as a merchant. It is also heavily utilised by the Free Worlds as a low-tier service vessel in their fleets, and it can be used by the player for a good deal of the Free Worlds campaign.
