Ornare-class frigate

The Ornare-class (meaning Decorated in Latin) is a heavy hitting frigate designed to deal heavy damage in a single volley. Mounting two deck guns in the centre of the ship along with two front facing standard cannons, a single volley from the frigate can render an enemy defenceless or destroyed. Heavy armour belts run along the sides and front of the ship, giving it excellent protection to allow it to fire off its attack, whilst a front facing shield generator gives extra protection from incoming laser fire. Mobility is provided from the protected quad large thrusters as well as standard thrusters for turning. The ship is also self-sufficient in terms of ammunition, with two factories allowing it to constantly create its own munitions providing it has sulphur, allowing it to remain in the field for an extended period before needing to return to a home station.

The Ornare-class is pocket heavy firepower in an armoured chassis, with the big guns capable of taking on larger targets and dealing heavy damage. While unable to jump system, the on-board factories mean it can go on extended patrols and replenish its own ammunition while ensuring any Roman possessions are well protected against pirates!
