Description

The Kneall Prototype is a Kneall fleet ship added in the recent Alien AI update, along with a few others (like the Bruiser and Outrider).

Behavior

Unlike other Kneall Ships, the Kneall Prototype will maneuver to a range of 0-500 studs away from its target. It is able to fight more effectively with this closer range allowing it to usually turn its side to the enemy.  

Strategy

  • Use a Viper or a similar Frigate to distract the Turrets while Dreadnoughts and Battleships dish out heavy damage.
  • Warp to a distance after destroying this ship, as it has a very large and damaging death explosion.

Loot

  • ? Alien Parts + 50 Plasma Batteries.
  • You can only loot up to 25 plasma batteries per run from a Kneall Prototype wreck.

Trivia

  • The ship has a similar model to the Prototype X-2 but it is slightly different with numerous antennas and being smaller.
  • Some people describe this as a weaker Prototype X-2 but, in fact, the Kneall Prototype's DPS is much higherthan Prototype X-2's DPS.
  • The Kneall Subcannon has poor LoS.
  • You used to be able to pilot this in Galaxy Development.
  • Only rcouret is able to spawn it along with the Kneall Fleet in Galaxy.
