Turtlebug.

[Ithirahad]

Quad body, six smaller, longer space whale fins along its sides. Swims around in asteroid fields. Is really cheap to make, seeing as it is a combination of existing geometry. Looks cool. The Turtlebug. Make it happen. :P

This is neat. If it happens, they should cluster in herds on an asteroid's surface at times, and scatter like roaches if the asteroid is disturbed. Might add a little fun to mining.

Yeah, that'd be funny. They could also flop off the asteroid, swarm all over your hull and annoy you...

Yet another reason for viewscreen wipers xD

Thankfully, the way my cruiser's front window works they could safely be cleared off with a pulse. The other ships might need wipers, though :\
