Crusader A2 Hercules, official image — Official image © Cloud Imperium Games

The A2 Hercules is the range’s gunship, devastating in airborne assaults, rescues and landings: more than double the M2’s firepower and a custom bomb bay with a staggering payload. The Hercules Starlifter range is built on Crusader’s patented military-grade spaceframe, that of the UEE’s premier tactical starlifter.
