Centaur class Fire Support Frigate standard briefing
Ship Name: Centaur Ship Class: Centaur Ship Type: Frigate Stats: - Cost: 194,203Resources - Blocks: 3,676 - Speed: 31m/s Main Weapon: - 1x456mm railgun Turrets (AP-HEAT/Frag) - 2x2 Simple Revolving Blast Gun turrets (Anti-Kamikaze, not 100% reliable against erratic targets) Defenses: - Armor (Metal wedges + alloy + wood) - Smoke - 2x12 small missile intercept launchers Description: The Centaur class is a large frigate operated by the Autonomous Fleet. Despite its small size, the ship is heavily armed, with its main and only weapon being a 456mm railgun capable of firing rounds close to Mach 5. The extreme armor penetrating power of the Centaur's gun makes the craft a danger even to larger vessels as a single round in the right place can easily cripple a cruiser or even battleship. While heavily armed, the Centaur is effectively a glass cannon with its main belt armor comprised of only a single layer of alloy and metal. For this reason, the Centaur prefers to engage at long range, often staying at the rear of the fleet and taking deadly potshots at enemy crafts. The Centaur class was first sighted on ████/██/██ on Neter, during a AF offensive into the Steel Strider's north-western territories. During the operation, the Centaur was able to cripple multiple SS ships including a Kitakami class, as while as Grey Talon reinforcing airships and even score direct hits on SS aircraft. The craft was last seen ████/██/██ during the siege of ██████ city where it was used to shell coastal fortifications and was credited with neutralizing the city's air defense systems.

That's understandable, given 'automated' is kinda the whole theme.
Been loving this fleet so far btw, been using them pretty much exclusively in my current campaign run.

Fixed, but it still isn't compatible with manual steering though.

Seems to be broken for me, the spin block that controls which way the propeller at the back faces is stuck pointing to the right, neither manually controlling the ship or setting it to AI control seems to have an effect

Nice. Front page even.

It has 2 modes, frontside and back away when below 2000m and broadside when above 2000m.

Is this also a frontsider like the fenrir?
