Heavy Assault Cruisers are the largest class of capital ship, and the only one currently preset in Vendetta Online (thus they are commonly refered to as capital ships, or capships for short). Currently, there is not much story line behind these massive creations, as they are still in testing. A Serco nation ship called the
SMV Nemesis is spawned in Sol II every 6 hours, and comes with 20-30 NPC escort of SkyCommand Prometheuses and Serco Vulture Guardians. It patrols between Sol II and Geira Rutilus, but rarely makes it all the way through the patrol. At the whim of a guide, a capital ship can also be spawned in each
nation's capital, where it will wait ten minutes and then procede to Sedina B8. This is a temporary condition allowing for more playtesting of the 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. The ship is equipped with
((FIXME)) turrets, each of which holds an Über
Gatling Turret (higher damage, higher range). Currently, the piloting of all Heavy Assault Cruisers is managed by AI systems.
