Adventure Class Ships appears at the end of this month.

Strapped for cash? Try the 400-ton Antique Trader! Sure, it may be a little rough around the edges, but it carries more cargo than a Subbie and costs less than Cr5000 a month to run!

When a civilisation first discovers there is a whole universe of empires beyond their homeworld, shock quickly turns to the desire to make a profit from trade. Having only just gained access to low-level jump drive and gravitic technologies, the first commercial ships to leave their world can be shockingly fragile and basic, but with enough determination, merchants can begin bringing goods and Credits back from star systems once seen only through a telescope. The amount of space in the cargo hold is impressive, though that may be of small attraction to Travellers used to more advanced ships.

If I recall the antique trader correctly, it had a nuclear reactor.

If so, certainly would like to see fuel costs.
 
A fusion reactor is a nuclear reactor. Do you mean fission reactor? Which is also a nuclear reactor.
