== Description ==
== Description ==
The '''Bastion''' is a heavy [[:Category:Battlecruiser|Battlecruiser]] that focuses on [[Turrets|Turret]] firepower. Its main body features two large protruding thrusters and an elevated cockpit area with a rounded window. This ship's relatively high turret count makes it effective against smaller ships up through ships of its own class.
