Destroyer

The Destroyers

The vanguard of an efficient strike group, the Destroyer performs solidly at every level. It is often the first ship into combat and the last ship out. With skillful Energy Management, the Destroyer can provide a variety of roles for the team.

Overview

The all-in-one ship, the Destroyer is the most versatile class of ship. They can easily be modded for survivability, hit-and-run attacks, sustained DPS and even an "aura" ship, giving buffs to nearby ships. With Cannons and Turrets as Primary Weapons, they can keep shooting throughout the entire fight, while unleashing hell with Missiles, Nukes and even the Ram. Their Modules can be tailored to remove Energy, deal heavy sustained damage and outdamage Dreadnoughts, Corvettes and Tactical Cruisers, or even soak damage as you regain Energy and refill Shields in but a second.

Multi-function tough to speed quickly to such a striking force. A convenience store that can handle most things well. Also, depending on the module configuration there is customizability that can be either a light cavalry or a heavy infantry.
