DESCRIPTION
The Soontir-class Heavy cruiser is the first capital ship constructed for the Fel Empire. The purpose of this ship is to prove to the people of the Fel Empire that Ronin has the capability to enforce his might in the galaxy. The Soontir-class is loaded with armaments that make it the ideal heavy cruiser for ship-to-ship space combat. The 150 turbolasers are positioned along the sides and on top of the ship in positions most efficient for firing upon ships straight ahead and at broadsides. The ship was also equipped with warhead launchers along the bottom of the capital ship in order to complete effective planetary bombardments when necessary.

The interior of the ship is state-of-the-art compared to other capital ships of the galaxy. Upon construction of the Soontir-class, the engineers agreed upon making the ship not only durable, but comfortable. Within the ship, there is living quarters for the crew(5 per cabin), a mess hall, and a recreational facility. The Soontir-class command deck is equipped with the targeting systems, communications, navigational systems, and sensor array computers. To operate the command deck properly, a crew of 20 men is needed. The downside to this capital ship is it's poor amount of tractor beams, causing it to not be ideal in larger space battles, and the small number of anti-starfighter armaments.

Heavy cruisers have a speed of 7. It would take a great sacrifice to lower that to 6. 5 might not even be possible for a Heavy Cruiser.
Way too many missile launchers. HG Heavy Cruisers get 36, not 60.

• Too many advanced systems for a ship this size and this early in the Fel Imperium's career. Cut at least one back to standard. Though I'd prefer two, I'll only really ask for one.
• I'm assuming this is a Heavy Guns ship. It would be a good idea to label them such in the future.
• The Rock spitters have to go. You can have assault concussion missiles if you want, but neither CEC, nor the Fel Empire, has experience enough with Vong tech to even consider using it, let along trying to splice it onto a none-Vong ship.

While this looks alright now, you might consider looking at the new guide and updating this to reflect some changes that were made.
