The Alston League has just placed an order for twelve of these boats to
supplement the larger system defence boats in the league navy. Built around a
400Mw laser lance and carrying two missile barbettes the gunboat is tasked to
be able to take on a variety of targets, including smaller warships.
If there is a weakness in the design it is in the armour. In order to fit the
large laser many compromises had to be made, these being principally in reduced
armour. The lasers rate of fire of 200/30 minutes was also below that
originally specified.
