Devastation Cruiser[1]
The Devastation-Class Cruiser is a fleet-support carrier used by the Forces of Chaos.
Overview
The Devastation Class is able to launch four squadrons of attack craft. Once its attack craft are launched, the Devastation class is able to further support the fleet with long-ranged lance fire provided by 2 turrets. However, it doesn't pack much of a short-ranged punch, with its weapons batteries only sufficient to fend off an enemy until it can get back behind friendly lines.[1]
Technical Specifications[3]
- Dimensions: 5km long, 0.8km abeam
- Mass: 28.5 megatonnes
- Crew: 80,000 crew
