The Marauder is a Battlecruiser designed to be well-rounded.

Description

The Marauder is a small, nimble Battlecruiser with a balance of turret and spinal firepower and a heavy emphasis on Hull health.

Interior

The interior is simple, with a teleporter pad that takes you into a room that has a carpet and a few screens as well as the pilot seat.

Advantages

• Cheap.
• Has 5 Turrets.
• Balanced damage output.
• Has Spinals that do decent damage.
• High Hull for its class.
• Explosion Value of 34

Disadvantages

• Easy for Hull-breakers to take you down.
• If you can't hit the Spinals, you lose a lot of Shield DPS.
• Vulnerable at the bottom.
• Most of the Shield damage is focus on the Spinals.
• Low shields.

Strategy

• Use this ship in swarms to take down larger ships.
• Don't attack ships that have lots of small Turrets.
• Avoid Shield breakers.

Version History

• Rebalanced in .75a5.
• Name fixed in .69d.

Trivia

• The name of the ship used to have a space before it. That meant that players must add an extra space when using the :cost command. It also meant that the ship appears on the top of the "spawn ship" list because of alphabetical order. (this is probably fixed?)
• A Carrier called the Warlord has a design that looks very similar to this ship; also, a Fighter called the Harbinger, which is found exclusively on the Prometheus, shares a similar model.
• The Marauder has a slight resemblance to the Daedalus from Stargate, while the Warlord is almost identical to it.
