ZH-25 Questor, where's the EC?

[HappyDaze 10,108]

The ZH-25 is described as having a spacious cargo bay taking up the rear 2/3 as well as having additional cargo pods slung under the hull. Despite this, it only has an Encumbrance Capacity of 100, much less that many of the light freighters that have been detailed among the lines. Is the ZH-25 supposed to have such a low EC, and does this value include the two cargo pods?

Well, for one thing, the ZH-25 is tiny.  According to Wookieepedia, it's not even twice as long as an X-Wing, and about 2/3rd's the side of a YT-1300.  I'd say that the EC of 100 is probably accurate, but the Cargo Pods might offer as much as another 300 Encumbrance, were it up to me.

That said, I might impose a better handling score for the ZH-25, were the cargo pods removed.  Otherwise, there's no good reason for any character to end up with the ship willingly.

It does have a pretty good Sensor Range for a light freighter along with 3 months of Consumables (also pretty high for a light freighter), but the kicker is the high HTT and SST values (30 and 20) which make it a rather durable little ship. I can see reason to take it over some of the other light freighters available at the price listed, but it still seems low on cargo capacity to me.

Honestly I think all ships are low on cargo capacity. How can you run guns if you can only carry less then 20 Heavy Blaster rifles? or 50 grenades...
