 The Gypsy is a jack-of-all-trades vessel, capable of filling any role in the Free State outside of a military ship. With its hives of utility drones and fusion-electric smelters, it can easily repair and maintain itself for decades on end. Its advanced environmental systems and hydroponics bays allow its inhabitants to sustain themselves just as long, so long as water supplies are available. The longevity of this vessel is often attributed to the Free State philosophy of 'grin and bear it' against the hazards of the galaxy; the design is specifically engineered for rugged and reliable equipment much more basic -- and therefore much easier to maintain -- than the increasingly more complex and specialized equipment other races strive for. After all, the simplest solutions are always the best. The Gypsy is a jack-of-all-trades vessel, capable of filling any role in the Free State outside of a military ship.

-Though a cruiser-sized ship, the Gypsy is the closest thing to a "town" in [[faction:freespacers|Freespacer]] society. Anything smaller is usually a fully autonomous drone or a shuttle craft, unable of supporting life for extended periods of time. Anything larger than the Gypsy is usually a city-sized Mothership. Gypsies are the staple vessel of all Freespacer [[fleets]], acting as the backbone of mining operations throughout the entire Free State.+Though a cruiser-sized ship, the Gypsy is the closest thing to a "town" in [[species:freespacers|Freespacer]] society.
