In the never-ending quest to find a decent American
gold ship, a few candidates stand out above the
crowd. The Lynx is definitely one of them.
Her cargo is okay, her speed adequate, and her price
tag very tempting.
Consider her ability, and now she's something to
behold, moving at S+S+S on the outbound trip and S+S
when coming home overflowing with gold.
Like most one-masters with poor cannons, you want to
keep her away from trouble. Fortunately, for only
seven points, you'll have plenty of points left over
to buy a couple of fighters with crew to keep the
enemy occupied.
If you're an American admiral who needs a gold ship,
this one should be on every short list to put in
your fleet. She should not be a missing Lynx.
