Engineered by Samura Heavy Industries for the Naval Forces following the coup of 321 A.S. the vessel was built to serve as a halmark for the new dynasty. Surpassing contemporary Houses conterparts in size it is the highest symbol of Kusari military power and it has, in following Kusari tradition, a very extensive lifetime for a hull of this type. The ever progressing march of these massive war vessels into Bretonian territory despite all efforts of opposition stand as grim tribute to the vessel's original craftsmanship and Kusari's ability to blend the artisan lines of tradition with the deadly efficiency of modern innovation.

Handling

• This ship is too large to use docking bays, it must use mooring points.

Review without version number

Review A very beautiful and ornate ship, it seems to ... c-c-c-ombobreak the Kusari Shipline, while both the Gunboat and Destroyer are in the 'light' class. One of the most deadly 'Heavy' Battleships it can fire ALL 18 turrets forward. This makes its energy a must-watch when firing for long durations, but that would hardly be necessary when fighting other large capital ships as your output is nearly sure to match or exceed theirs, as it has the standard 9 million power plant. While not having less armor than the Rheinland Battleship, its more manueverable and I daresay one of the most maneuverable of the Heavy Battleship class. The Kusari Battleship is very tall and not very wide, giving it a very good horizontal strafe ability to avoid long range mortar attacks from cruisers and the like. Obvious disadvantages are its vulnerability to Bombers which are a common sight in Kusari. Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Review by Camtheman
