Description:
The 1st Rate Colonial Cruiser was designed an Manufactured by the FCSC after the sacking of shipyards around Annaj. With a budding government, and small Colonies scattered, the Free Colonies needed a big ship to go toe to toe with larger Navy's and fleets.
Sporting an Impressive hundred guns she is the choice ship of higher ranking Admirals and Officers. The 1st Rate is primarily used to deal massive damage to the enemy fleet or planetary defences.
The Drawback of her design were that she was slow, and hard to manuever fast. To balance this Officers needed to place her carefully in the line to ensure maximum success.
