The '''Leecher''' is a small [[:Category:Destroyer|Destroyer]] with decent maneuverability and a high potential for damage. It comes [[Turrets|Gatling lasers]] and [[Turrets|Cannons]], as well as [[Spinals|Phasers]] and [[Spinals|Cannons]], allowing it to quickly damage both the [[Hull]] and [[Shields|Shield]] of a ship. It has two large wings with mounted thrusters, and has wing-mounted [[Turrets]] arranged in a similar fashion to the [[Archangel]]. | The '''Leecher''' is a small [[:Category:Destroyer|Destroyer]] with decent maneuverability and a high potential for damage.
