- Strike and Fade: Good luck catching this ship or surviving its initial bombardment. It enters the area to cause as much havoc as possible before using its speed and maneuverability to get out of harms way.
- Target, Destroyed: It has an overwhelming forms of firepower. If it is not the four proton beam cannons, it has also a Seismic Bomb as a backup weapon when things go horribly wrong which generally causes mass chaos on use.
- Ludicrous Speed, GO!: It has a very fast hyperdrive to the point it is unusual impractical. It is made to get out of situations rather fast though it can cause issues with people claiming they have gone to Plad.
- Repair in Hanger bay Nine!: The hull is rather thin, made to ensure top speed and maneuverability. This may cause issues if hit the wrong way.
- Exposed Rear: Very little defense in the rear save for point defense lasers. If anything large catches up from behind, it is in trouble.
- Full Frontal Attack!: Most of its overwhelming firepower is contained into the front arc, meaning if the target moves away from the starship, it would make the fight drastically harder.
- Seismic Oops: The Seismic Bomb has a large blast radius which is a gamble. If it goes off, it may actually hurt the Mettallum in a horrible way.
When describing a dangerous starship, one reflects back to those that were large, mean and fast. The last time Haon made one, it did not end so well so it went back to the drawing board. In a meeting with Marlon Sularen over pocket dreadnoughts, it made Haon Hafey get two separate ideas. Deciding to create them at the same time, the two would be sister ships to each other but not identical nor close to alike in design but at least with the same mindset. Fast, maneuverable and dangerous. The first of the designs was the Mattallum, named after Lord Mettallum of the Metal Lords of the Void, the Metal Lords of Old.
One of the key new additions was the use of Lightning Strike Cannons for point defense lasers, mainly to see how it could work. A second new function was the injection of the Seismic Bomb Launcher which would propel it from underneath towards its target and hopefully get out of harms way. The largest though of the bunch was the injunction of four Proton Beam Cannons, almost considered widely absurd and has a massive drainage in reactor power. To offset, it was seated way further in the back and could not turn like newer models.
Regardless, the first of the two ships were out from production as in with hope that those in charge may use it on occasion. If not, Haon may be the one testing out the Mettallum.
When shifting focus from the Brotherhood of the Maw towards the Elysium Empire, it was difficult to completely pull the bomb away as some technical data may been lost. The Starships internal structure was gutted and reformatted to accommodate for new bombing protocols.
CHANGES:
Changed Affiliation from Brotherhood of the Maw to Elysium Empire
Gutted out all of Special Features in place of new ones.
Added new Information to Descriptions.
