Description (Specifications)

Hive Protector: Filled with as many Maskai warriors as it can carry in a maze of tunnels, fitted into the largest buffered asteroid hull the computer technology could support, this design looks to eliminate capital ships with the large spinal mounted particle accelerator mount. Lesser targets are swarmed with missile barrages, and the pulse lasers are used to absorb surface weapon hits. They like to board if possible to allow their large numbers of efficient female warriors to overwhelm enemy ships.
