Tyrant-Class Cruiser
Dimensions: 5 km long, .8 km abeam at fins.
Mass: 27.2 megatons.
Crew: 90000 crew, approx.
Accel: 2.4 gravities max. sustainable acceleration.
The Tyrant’s design was designed at the end of the 38th millennium around the principles of superfired plasma weaponry. In the attempt to give the Imperial Navy a warship with a powerful, long-range macrobattery broadside, the Tyrant was developed.
Early versions mixed short and long-ranged plasma macroweapons, in an effort to reduce total power draw on the ship’s reactors. However, the firepower at long range was unspectacular enough that the Navy began retrofitting Tyrants with longer ranged weaponry recovered from space hulks or disabled renegade warships, in order to boost range without boosting power draw.
The cruiser is popular amongst Rogue Traders who can afford it, although they often replace the superfired plasma weapons with less space and power intensive macrobatteries.
