Description:

Inferno R1 Description

The Alcyone was brought into service by RNI following the retirement of the old Aeolus class. Sharing a very similar design, the Alcyone's standardised systems and cost-effective, modular hull improved on the Aeolus' expensive and difficult to repair hardware which forced the GTVA to abandon its wider use. The Alcyone has a single forward medium beam cannon to engage warships, and is well armed against fighter attacks with multiple suppression cannons and missile turrets.
