*Turrets suffer from very poor accuracy against moving targets, making it easy to miss a ship even the size of a [[:Category:Dreadnought|dreadnought]] from medium range if the target is moving (this also applies inversely; if the ship is moving too fast against a stationary target, the turrets are prone to missing from a distance). Combined with the available spinal weaponry, this ship is extremely prone to being easily swarmed by smaller, nimble ships. | |||
