Boron Octopus (M5)

The Octopus was developed to be the Boron version of the Discoverer. Its design was revolutionary and all races, when it was first seen, were very keen to know how effective it was. The success of the Octopus sent ripples throughout the Boron sectors as more was produced, but today it is considered to be obsolete, although it is still in service.
