The Excavator line of ships focuses on mining duties. Its lucrative mining perk means it can find pure commodities more often and its reasonable speed of 0.3 LYs and hold space of 100 Mgs makes it a perfect pocket miner. Improved over the mark one, the mark two has higher shields at 500 ZWs, slightly more fuel capacity and available power.
