The Nisos is a balanced ship, mostly used in Battleship sieges.
Description
The Nisos is a Battleship that mostly does a lot of hull damage with its turrets. It also has Spinals that can do a lot of damage to the shields. It is pretty fast for its class. It was also the first ship to have a Heavy Cannon as a Turret.
Appearance
You walk onto a teleporter, which leads to a small room with a desk, a chair, 3 screens, a picture of SuperChip15, and a model of an Alien Swarmer.
Advantages
- Good speed, acceleration and maneuverability for a Battleship.
- Has both shield and hull-damaging weapons.

Disadvantages
- Low amounts of shield-damaging Turrets.

Strategy
