Remus Dreadnought

undefined

The Remus is a class of dreadnought constructed by the Post-Human Republic. As with all PHR dreadnoughts, the Remus is equipped with a fully-intermeshed power management system that encompasses all of its weapons, core functions, and drives. This allows the Remus to overcharge all of its weapons with a minimum of danger, in comparison to the dangerous vent cannon technology employed by the Resistance.

In comparison to the Romulus, which exists solely to break enemy fleets, the Remus is a more flexible weapon. While it can skirmish with enemy vessels thanks to its energy glaive broadsides, the Remus is perhaps better known for the Apocalypse cannon - a massive four-barreled weapon that can reduce entire cities to glass and ashes. While its normal firing mode presents some possibility of survival, the Apocalypse cannon can also be overcharged, giving it the destructive potential of a nuke with no chance of being stopped by enemy counterfire.
