Description: The I.M.D Brachypelma MkI Artillery cruiser is designed to give any fleet, capable of blowing holes into other ship that comes its way, before it can get close enough to do the same. To this end it had been fitted with a decent shielding system, and has good target system. Though it does need fighter protection and point defense has suffered as a result, as its primary aim to hit big ships hard. So as result it would need escorts, to protect them from major missile attack or attacks from fighter formations.
Its primary armament is four high velocity cannons, these are all forward facing. They are mounted near the nose of ship, and the ship needs to use its maneuvering thrusters to aim them. It then has a secondary armament twelve heavy long range turbolasers matched with eight long range ion cannons. These are mounted with forward arch, on of the ship each has three of turbo lasers and two ion beams. This armament allows the ship to snipe at its enemy formation before it can close in, but those that do get a nasty surprise as it also pack heavy photon torpedoes, and ion torpedoes to weaken the shields further enemy ship. The ion torpedo launchers have timing mechanism with them, to make sure they hit before the heavy photon ones to make sure maximum damage is possible. The weapons due to their range, could not face backwards. This left a massive blind spot to the rear of the ship, but the guns could give broadside attack, if they tried to pass.
