With
Thorald Magnusson
's Vylmiran Fleet, the High Marshal has desired a want of a ship that controls the battlefield to a devastating effect. With this in mind, the CIS reached out to
Matthew Locke
to aid in the inventment and creation of such a device.After much deliberation and theorizing it was decided that it would use Interdiction technology with a mix of the effects of a Gravity bomb to destroy any enemy fleets in one swoop as the device is activated.
With the Use of Interdiction technology, the device could be felt across a battlefield and allow for friendly vessels to escape the effects of the devastating device. Essentially the device locks down the enemy fleet and crushes it with the weight of thousands of suns, to devastating effect.
Testing of the Device has begun at Scarif, the device looks promising and the hopes of a new wave of technology follows in its wake.
