Attack ship
The Attack ship (ソーパイ = Sopaïc) is a new category of warship that was introduced during the war. This type of ship was created to field a ship that combines the swiftness of a destroyer with the firepower and armor of a cruiser. Equipped with electromagnetic cannons and antiproton cannons they can destroy any ship with one salvo. Their defense capability is also much greater than a destroyer. With their speed and range this type of ship offers a good alternative to cruisers. Currently this type of ships is deployed in squadrons of 13 ships, which are given equal tactical worth as one cruiser squadron.
History[edit | edit source]
As assault ships proofed to be too light armored and armed during the war, a need for a more powerful but still lighter than cruiser type arose. This caused a heated debate among military experts on the classification of this new type of ships. Among the many names were light-cruiser, and heavy assault ship. The attack ship name was a result the compromise.
