The '''Radiance''' is a long ship with a barrel on the front and engines on the back. The whole front of the ship is taken up by the [[Spinals|Large Cannon]], with ridges on either side. The four [[Turrets|Lasers]] are mounted on the top, bottom, and sides of the center area of the ship. | The '''Radiance''' is a long ship with a barrel on the front and engines on the back.
