DESCRIPTION

Crew:

• Droid brain
• Termite Sapper Droids
• A small complement of infantry droids

The Fulgent Class Assault Cruiser is the mainstay of Hexus Contingent’s automated war fleets. The cruiser carries a wide array of pulse laser turrets and flechette cannons for close range defense against fighters and for mid range engagements against capital ships. However, the bulk of its firepower is provided by its large number of incredibly powerful Lachesis Antimatter Long Ranged Missiles. These missiles provide strike damage unrivaled by most ships of its class, and combined with the innate advantages of pulsed laser weapons it can rapidly cripple enemy warships before finishing them off at leisure, or boarding. To achieve the latter, the ship carries a launch bay for boarding craft. This is generally used to allow Talon and Lamier combat droids to enter the crippled ship and butcher the crew, before other droids are used to salvage or hijack the vessel.
