(ACI) Endurance Light Cruiser (LCR)

ACI Endurance Class Light Cruiser produced by Ares Combat Industries

The Endurance Light Cruiser is one of the most frequently seen Vessels coming out of the ACI shipyards in the past few days, as many aging fleets are being upgraded and replaced with this type of cruiser. The main 1st to 3rd generation vessels that are being replaced with the Endurance are ships ranging from the Retribution to ships as large as the Praetor. ACI engineers at first wanted to create a basic hull design without any fancy guns and experimental features, but after basic weapons testing the engineers decided that more firepower would be needed. Therefore, the engineers decided to mount a giant four-barrel turret onto the dorsal hull of the starship. This gun is a capital ship class gun, enabling the Endurance to brawl with the “big boys” so to speak. In addition to that the Endurance features a drone bay capable of carrying six remote controlled drones all operated out of the Endurance. ACI will unveil more information about the drones in the next few days. There have been rumors that the drone bay could be used for other tasks as well… Bombardment System or something of sorts has been mentioned… only time will tell if these rumors turn out to be true. 20 Cryo Pods have been installed onto the cruiser, which makes the starship able to carry a somewhat reasonable compliment of soldiers.

To get the rotor turret to work “Attack Mode ON” must be triggered, because this way the Designator turret gets turned on. You can control the rotor turret by controlling the Designator turret in the control panel.
