Prefsbelt Commander
OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
Improved Reactor Capability: With great size comes great power. With an increased hull,and size, reactor space has been increased, allowing for greater firepower.
Tri Barrel: Triple the barrels, triple the fun! With firepower split over three separate barrels, it allows for concerted firing barrages, as well as making sure if one is destroyed, the others can operate unmolested.
Strengths:
The Mega-Class turbolaser is an advanced weapon designed by the First Order's research and development departments to create a mainstream, large and capable anti-capital vessel battery. This new line of turbolaser doesn't use kyber crystals to increase firepower, rather it uses its massive size to house bigger reactor space which allow for it to attack enemy vessels.
The Mega-Class turbolaser is a heavy hitter, with it being capable of being the equivalent to fifty ordinary turbolaser blasts per volley, making it a devastating weapon to face on the battlefield. One which aims to whittle down enemy capital ships' shields, as quickly as possible, and triple barrels to spread the fire.
However, the Mega-Class Turbolaser is not without fault. It is a larger battery, meaning that it provides a larger target for bombers, fighters and corvettes designed to target such installation. That, and with a battery of this size, manoeuvring is difficult to maintain, with so much power going to the turret. This makes the turbolaser unable to counter highly manoeuvrable vessels, unless hits are attained in the cross fire.Recharging is also slow, with there needing to be a discernible wait between volleys.

Strengths:
- Greater Firepower: The Mega-Class Turbolaser houses more reactor space, which in turn allows for greater firepower as a weapon, with each battery capable of making up the force of fifty batteries.
- Oh Baby A Triple!: The three barrels of the mega-class turbolaser allow for the battery to operate, sans two barrels.
- Manouverability: The Mega-Class is unable to manouvere to counter many smaller vessels such as corvettes, and fighters.
- Target: The Mega-Class is vulnerable to concerted attack due to its size.
