Devastator Class Destroyer
OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
[*]Defenses: Very High,
[*]Molecular shields
[*]Heavy redundant shields
[*]Reinforced plating
[*]On board defences
Strengths:
Description:
Built along similar lines as the Obliterator Class, the Devastator acts as a mainline battleship for the Contingency. Like the Obliterator, its slow speed is counterbalanced by devastating firepower which can inflict massive damage at close range, whilst its heavy defences can shrug off heavy enemy fire.
The Devastator lacks a hanger, and so requires support from other ships to handle attack craft properly.

Strengths:
- Firepower. In addition to conventional weapons the Devastator has a vast array of special weapons which can rend enemy ships apart.
- Defences. The solid mass of the Devastator combined with its molecular and regular shields and heavy plating makes it very hard to destroy.
- Jump. In addition to advanced hyperdrives the Devastator can microjump with precision to close with the enemy.
- Slow. The Devastator is very slow and clumsy to turn. Staying out of reach is the best strategy.
- Support. The Devastator has no hanger and limited defence guns. Without support it will be preyed upon by enemy attack craft.
- Range. Many of the Devastator’s weapons are designed for close range. It has much fewer long range weapons.
- Engines. The one chink in the armour of the Devastator is its engines. Though well protected, it is considerably less protected than the rest of the ship, if one can get into position to attack it.
