  STRENGTHS
• Greased Lightning: terrifying speed, the B.L.A.Z.A.M.U.T streaks faster than eyes can follow.
• Armored: the B.L.A.Z.A.M.U.T has state of the art metal alloys to reinforce the frame and plating to make it stronger than most mass produced starships, buildings, and is even capable of piercing several meters into organic material.
• Carrier: the vessel isn't just a heavy and fast projectile. It loads 8 soldiers in every B.L.A.Z.A.M.U.T

WEAKNESSES

• Aim Small, Miss Small: the B.L.A.Z.A.M.U.T is a point and shoot. If your aim is off then there's no correcting the trajectory. Bye bye.
• Armored Egg: While the B.L.A.Z.A.M.U.T can survive several direct hits, it doesn't necessarily mean the occupants will. The impact could trigger landing protocols which means when they do land, they'll be outta luck.
• Limited Seating: once the B.L.A.Z.A.M.U.T does anchor into their target, it is still only 8 attackers against who knows how many defenders.

DESCRIPTION
Many battles were won by greater technological advancements. Some by greater numbers. Others were won by strategy and using superior tactics.

Then there are battles that could have been won if only they had been able to get forces into key strategic points. But many times there wasn't a viable way to get a troop carrier or drop ship into place because of enemy fire. Sometimes having a small force able to board an enemy ship could tip the tide of conflict.

However, the options to do so are very limited. This led the man known as Nemesis to begin plans and construction on a new type of drop ship. One that could be aimed and fired, quickly crossing distances to impact target areas. All that was needed was a mixture of schematics. A vessel that was as fast as a missile, stronger that traditional armor plating or defensive barriers, and, the most important part, did not need to decelerate.

And so the Battle Landing Assault Zealot Aircraft Manned Utility Team, shortened to B.L.A.Z.A.M.U.T., was born. A vessel capable of streaking across battlefields, surviving impact, and releasing a small force in the midst of enemy formations.

Able to be utilized as a drop ship on a planet, fired into stations and ships for boarding, and capable of penetrating armored buildings, fortresses, and bases.
