The Waspinator is a limited Carrier-Miner hybrid released during the April Fool's Event 2022.

Description

The Waspinator is an April Fool's-themed combat miner carrier with Wasp? Fighters and Mining Lasers as weaponry.

Wasp? Fighters engaging an enemy ship.

Appearance

The Waspinator is identical to the model of the Wasp, but made extremely large, to the point where it is bigger than most Dreadnoughts. There is a floating teleporter on the far front of the Carrier, and leads to a teleporter just infront of the pilot seat.

Teleporter leading to the entrance of the ship.

The Fighter bay is simply a row of Wasp? Fighters lined up above it's engines.

The Interior is identical to the Wasp.

Advantages

• The Fastest and Most-agile Carrier in the game, with an astounding 0.6 Turn Speed, which is as fast as Frigates.
• Turret is long range and extremely accurate, capable of hitting even Cruisers.
• Intimidating.

Disadvantages

• Low hull-based DPS.
• Huge, and can be hit easily with Torpedoes.
• Expensive.
• Low health for a Carrier.

Strategy

• Keep this ship as a trophy.
• Abuse the 9K turret range of Wasp? against ships (can also be used to anti-seige if enemy is too scared)

• Scare Most Players with this Ship, even Super Capital Ships would run away seeing this warp to them.

Version History

• Added in version .75a9, after the introduction of the April Fool's Event 2022.
