Description	The Draconian-class mothership represents GCE's foray into the mothership production business. This is the smallest mothership around but it easily rivals larger ships like the Redeemer having the same tonnage of redundancy as the larger ship (this does come at the price of reduced hyperspatial speed) and amazing protection capabilities with active defense and armour plating. The Draconian also has amazing range allowing it to jump over two sectors with 30K tons piggybacked. With the exception of the aging ACV, the Draconian is the only mothership that can land on planets. The Draconian is very expensive for a ship its size but considering its awesome performance it might be well worth it.
