Raptor Class Frigate

 
 
 
 The Raptor is based on the sword pattern hull but has had some of it's weapons Batteries converted to Flak Missile launchers.  Raptor's are designed to neutralize enemy ordinance and to foul the sensors of enemy ships so that the fleet can disengage from dangerous encounters.

Special Rules:  Flak missiles can be used in three ways...

1) They may be deployed directly against ship's in which case they function just like weapons batteries except that they can only damage shields.

2) They maybe fired at Ordinance in which case each point of firepower is considered one dice with each dice hitting on a 5+

3) They may be used to deploy a number of Blast markers equal to the firepower of the battery within 15cm of the ship.

Designers note:  Credit for the idea of Flak launchers goes to Anthony Trudgett, who came up with the idea to explain all the extra guns on the Confessor.
