B.A.L.L.S. (Big Ass Legendary Laser Ship)

Two banks of 32 ion beams combine at the front as the primary weapon producing a maximum of around 82K dps (what's damage falloff?) . These beams can be redirected toward secondary emitters at either side of the ship. Secondary emitters are shielded behind several layers of armor which must be jettisoned before use. Medium reactors line the ion beam assembly ensuring sufficient power for continuous fire. Some faltering after ~9 seconds due to crew response but recovery is fairly quick. Medium reactors are generally grouped in pairs. Three blocks separate medium reactor pairs, with two layers of armor and a passageway between, ensuring destruction of any reactor pair won't chain down the ship. The ion assembly itself has essentially every free space filled with armor, ensuring destruction of one prism won't chain throughout the entire assembly.

B.A.L.L.S. is heavily shielded and meant to take severe punishment, but it isn't cheap. At 9.5 million you could have this bad boy nearly max out your crew limit with over 1600 men ready to satisfy your every need.
