Description: Accipteron engineers have created the Phoenix Class Dreadnought as a ship that can lead a battle fleet as a weapon to bombard enemy planets or assault larger enemy ships head on. The Phoenix Class has a powerful shield system and adamantite hull to protect the crew that operates it to a very high extent.
The Phoenix Class Dreadnought is equipped with a powerful weapon system. For protection against enemy Meks, Skimmers, or the occasional suicide drone swarms, it has twelve Phalanx Vulcan Photon Blasters, placed on various areas around the ship. To take out any incoming starships or other large objects, the dreadnought has eight cruise missile racks, six 3-barreled plasma cannons. Finally, the underside of the dreadnought holds an Anti-Matter Missile Launcher, used to bombard planets from orbit. The Anti-Matter charge in the missile holds a high amount of unstable Plasma energy. On impact, the explosion is much like that from a nuclear weapon dating back to the 20th Century, except for the fact that its explosion is that of pure plasma energy. As a result, nearly anything in that blast radius no longer exists, not even so much as a particle of dust.
