OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
[*]Defenses: Moderate,
[*]Heavy armour plating
[*]Redundant shield generators
Strengths:
The Annihilator is an unusual ship for the Contingency. It lacks the specialised heavy weapons of the larger assault ships or the hanger of the bigger carriers.
Instead, the Annihilator is designed to engage enemy corvettes, frigates and cruisers, prevent them from ganging up or getting behind the slower battleships. To this end it’s well equipped to face enemy ships the same and smaller size than it, however it needs to watch out for enemy destroyers or bombers at both ends of the size spectrum.
