Ship:ferryman

Modifiers
Flank Damage Probability: -20%
Mounts

The Ferryman has
* 2 C2 * 1 C1
Compartments

Compartment 3 is the most survivable mount, but is too small to hold a Basic CIC. If you have a small damage control locker, it should go here. If you do not have one, and have ammo in your free reinforced magazine, your reinforced magazine should go here.
Due to the Ferryman's non-existent damage reduction, it gets no damage threshold benefit out of any especially tanky components except the R-Drive, which has enough DT to resist HEI rays natively without support from the hull. As such, only three types of reinforced components are worth taking on Ferrymen; Aux steering, R mag, and 200-R Drive.
Modules

The Ferryman has
- 1 Small Drive Module
- 1 3x3 Module
- 2 2x2 Modules
Drive Setup
There are many ways to set up a Ferryman's drive, and the best way will depend on the role you are building the ship for.
CHI-777 Yard Drives provide the best linear thrust (LT) and angular thrust (AT), allowing you to quickly accelerate in any direction; this is best for dodging. The AT, while nice to have, is not very important on a Ferryman, which naturally has one of the highest AT in the game.
Sundrives provide the best top speed, allowing you to reposition even faster.
BW800-R Drives prevents the drive from dying to HEI Missile damage, a very important characteristic for the Ferryman's low survivability.
BW800 Drives, to save costs.
