Hawklight

Hawklight
The Hawklight is a battleship normally used as an anti-siege ship, it's heavy turret is a massive help into the anti-siege as it deals heavy damage to make the opposite team flee the scene. As this ship is a battleship it normally acts like a heavy battlecruiser being that it can escort, defend and maybe even help in an attack. Some see it as a mini-dread.

Strategy

 * What it lacks in turret power and durability, it makes up for in maneuverability and its extremely powerful spinal weapons.
 * It is a great ship for fighting Battlecruisers and other larger ships.
 * The spinals will make quick work of the target if it can keep its enemies in front of itself.
 * The Hawklight can take out any siege ship in the game so use it as a full on PVP ship when your base is being sieged.
 * When paired with a good pilot, the Hawklight could easily solo an Alien Punisher, while still having lots of shield remaining.

Trivia
