The '''Loyalist''' is a [[:Category:Battleship|Battleship]] equipped entirely with [[Turrets|Medium Turrets]] and a few spinals. This [[Ships|ship]] can be used much like the [[Ampharos]] or [[Tempest]], as its [[Turrets]] have a high rate of fire with decent accuracy. It is almost entirely black with the team colors most visible on the engines and between the plated areas. | The '''Loyalist''' is a [[:Category:Battleship|Battleship]] equipped entirely with [[Turrets|Medium Turrets]] and a few spinals.

*Since the blindspot below you can be exploited a lot, try to mostly outmaneuver your opponents with repeated descending warps. If you think you can't keep your target in sight for the weapons, do not force the fight and flee to your closest starbase. | *Since the blindspot below you can be exploited a lot, try to mostly outmaneuver your opponents with repeated descending warps.

*This ship excels at [[Aliens|Alien]] hunting.
