Epheserius

The Epheserius sub-class is an assault cruiser type, fast and highly capable. Unlike other cruisers, Epheserius was built on the smaller core of Fejillius, Syvellius, and Velvizius, thus giving it high mobility and room for additional control systems. Another key difference is that Epheserius uses BF shields instead of HE to reduce intake drain as a tradeoff for less protection. Though Epheserius is still short in the battery sector, its layout has been altered to be a speedy frontsider, and as a side-effect has the option of plane controls. For weapons, Epheserius has a large array of cruise missiles and other moderate cruiser weapons, with the downside of little rear protection. As a whole, Epheserius is essentially a prototype ship that is designed to take direct attacks head on, and such is with being a prototype design, Epheserius has seen little combat and effectiveness is unknown. Cost: 5. 6 mil Speed: 106 mph (3 seconds to fully accelerate) 148 mph with boosters (39 seconds of fuel) Other notes: It has a fair amount of passive drain, but you can sky anchor to recharge. The ship slightly pitches down when moving forwards. Due to Epheserius' smaller core, it is less stable and may require more control jockeying. Target lead is assumed to be used with my ships, but is not necessary. It uses the crosscorp skins all set to venture and Raf's Speedrunner skin for GSO, in case your skins might get bugged.
