Succubus Destroyer

undefined

The Succubus is a class of destroyer constructed by the Scourge. More common than both the Incubus and Revenant destroyers, the Succubus has become a familiar sight on the battlefields of the Reconquest. Though still less common than frigates, Succubi and other destroyers are being increasingly deployed by the Scourge in situations where they're outnumbered. In such scenarios, a destroyer's unique blend of speed, flexibility, and firepower is exceptionally useful.

The Succubus is the quintessential Scourge example of the above statement - its weaponry lets it confront capital ships and lighter vessels alike, and it can even take on enemy strike carriers that assume themselves safe in the atmosphere. Though its power consumption can lead to conspicuous energy spikes, the Succubus has been seen mounted with a cloaking crest to help mitigate this. Though obviously powerful, not every Succubus has one, leading UCMF naval experts to speculate that these crests are highly resource-intensive to produce.
