Ship Review - Gecko

[Gecko pic]

Not amazingly impressive, but it seems wonderful after the Adder. The extra light year's worth of fuel is very useful, and the decent turn of speed makes running away possible. The extra missile can come in handy, too. Since it is both faster and slightly better protected than the Adder the chances of surviving the initial attack run are increased, which is when you are at your most vulnerable.
