Strengths:

• The Adamith fits three forward mounted beam cannons, capable of dealing significant damage to enemy cruisers.

Weaknesses:

• The Adamith's anticapital armament is minimal on the sides. Anything larger than a corvette will have an easy time surviving the barrage of the solar ionization cannon batteries.

Description: Adamith artillery cruisers served during the final days of the New Order as a square-peg-in-a-round-hole solution for the ever decreasing amount of Zash-class Cruisers that had been forced to fill every sort of role. As expected, the Adamith is an offensive design, with its main anticapital armament facing forward. At range, even larger warships are at risk from the beam weapons of the Adamith. But as the Adamith was originally a miniaturized Yorika, so too were its faults miniaturized - a corvette can match the side armament of the cruiser blow for blow, and any damage to its main guns will leave the vessel effectively toothless. It is for this reason that Adamiths are recommended for use by offensive fleets that will attack the enemy. While an Adamith can be used defensively given adequate tactical thinking, it was not intended for the role and has weaknesses that, on the defense, can be exploited rather poorly.
