What CIG says RSI Ship Matrix
flight-ready Dropship Combat Medium
Drake knows that it’s a dog-eat-dog ‘verse out there. Away from the so-called protection of the UEE the law of the jungle prevails – whoever has the guns, and the personnel makes the rules. Drake has your back in both of those departments with the Cutlass Steel.
