Briefing
This rather alien looking warship was Genari Star Empire's answer to a larger destroyer platform that could out-compete Sol's destroyers. When this ship first entered the war, it was quickly dispatched to an assault group attacking a region near Proxma Cygni. On its first run, it managed to overwhelm the two Leningrad destroyers and a few frigates -- taking the region from the Sol Imperium. Its twin heavy laser beams and fission warheads pack a lot of damage, and are all designed to strike a reasonable max distance of 10,000km. Besides its purpose to support the heavy weapons away from the crew areas, its unique wing structure gives it a strikingly menacing look. Add to it, 60 marines are enough to capture or cripple any corvette or frigate. The ship's weakness is its speed; it is essentially a heavy destroyer with a destroyer-class powerplant, making it a slower version of its lighter counterparts. The ship also had an experimental secondary bridge used for simulation purposes, which allowed officers extra battle drills, honing their skills.
