Description

The Sixfold's signature appearance and the name come from the six wings attached to its main body that hold turrets and thrusters for the ship. It has two prominent rotary cannons attached to the sides of the bridge.

The Sixfold has no interior, instead has a cockpit with glass that can be walked through. The sixfold has 6 wings on the sides of its body, hence it's name. The Sixfold has 5 engines, all with a blue trail except for the middle one, which has a orange trail. There is multiple glowing tubes going from the center body to the pods that house the engines. At the front of the Sixfold, there is 4 pairs of guns, which the spinals come out from.
