Notes
Lore: The Shepherd is a Core logistics tender: a small, fast hull that shuttles supplies, personnel, and data packets between Core installations. It is not a warship, but its shields and sensors are Core-grade, and its ghost signature means it moves through contested space without drawing attention. Nine internal logistics depend on Shepherds; without them, the supply chain stalls.
