Heavy Assault Cruiser

These are the largest class of capital ships. Heavy Assault Cruisers are around 800m long, have a large fin on the "underside", and a docking bay near the fin. By entering this bay, you may gain access to the ship's turrets, and armor, in addition to repairing your ship. The ship is equipped with several turrets, each of which holds a Capital Gauss Cannon (larger projectile, more damage, capable of detonating ordinance). At the moment, the piloting of all Heavy Assault Cruisers is managed by AI systems, but work is already in progress for total player controlled versions.

3 Serco HAC's in Station Sector

There are 3 H.A.C.'s, designated SMV Nemesis, SMV Ferronen and the SMV Shekaris that spawn in Sol II every few hours, and come with 5 NPC escorts: 2 SkyCommand Prometheuses armed with Gauss cannons and 3 Serco Vulture Guardians armed with Neutrons. They patrol between Sol II and Geira Rutilus.

The Heavy Assault Cruiser plays a crucial role in the Border_Combat in Deneb when participating in the larger more difficult battles and is very difficult to defeat without player assistance or joining in an attack along side a TPG_Teradon_Frigate
