ES Raven Class
The Raven Class is the successor of EuroSpace’s previous Tick Class. These small combat vessels are made to be safe investments as all-round starter ships, while adressing previous weaknesses. Their design focuses on defense, speed and agility, enabling daring captains to perform combat maneuvers previously not possible. They excel as early solo- or escort ships.
Raven-Alpha & Beta: The Alpha & Beta versions aim to be the "ultimate" starter ship, for those who want a tool for almost any situation. Though, the class’ lack of storage make them reliant on supply ships such as the Magpie Class.
