- Heavy Long Range Triple Composite Particle Beam Cannon
- That's one big gun! - The Heavy Long Range Triple Composite Particle Beam Cannon, or HLRTCPBC (Known affectionately by crew as Hector) has few equals in terms of firepower.
- But wait there's more! - Hector isn't the only gun on this ship, the ship also comes with an extremely heavy loadout.
- CALL IN THE NEXT 5 MINUTES! - The ship also comes with a significant defensive loadout. Triple redundant shield systems ensure that it will be extremely difficult to get a hit in, and even if they do, alusteel armor plating reduces damage considerably.
- Entechment - A very strange request, but the entire ship runs off of entechment, meaning that you need to strap people to the entechment machinery and torment their souls for all eternity to get power, This is not only less than ideal but it is extremely tedious and requires a complement of thousands of slaves or prisoners to be kept on the ship to be used as fuel.
- Who needs fighters anyway? - The hangar on this ship is nonexistent, any ships need to dock to the force cylinders, slowing down loading and unloading.
- Forward looking - The ship is heavily weighted towards frontal assaults, with the axial mounted Hector and the general design of the ship favoring forward firing rather than broadsides or aft firing.
The lack of a hangar mandated the inclusion of force cylinders in order to facilitate loading and unloading of troops, which is time consuming and difficult, it takes nearly twice the time to fully load and unload as other ships of its class, which is especially frustrating as the ship needs to load thousands of souls to use as fuel which is time consuming whenever the vessel docks, wasting precious time. This also limits the ability for long term operations without outside support, rendering it somewhat useless for drawn out campaigns.
The massive particle beam cannon affectionately known as Hector is the centerpiece of the ship, drawing heavily from the venerable Immortals. You hit something with this thing and it is not going to be having a very good day, however it is useless against smaller and faster vessels like frigates and cruisers, rendering it very much a capital killer and not much else.
All around this vessel is as unique as the person who commissioned it, and will strike fear in the minds of any admirals who hold their capital ships so dear.
