The Zoner Destroyers form the backbone of Zoners capital ship fleet. Smaller and more maneuverable in comparison with other ships of the same class, the Destroyer has enough firepower and hull strength to counter the most fearsome opponents. This ship can be seen in many different places of Sirius, guarding freeports, or protecting important Zoner convoys.

Handling

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

Review without version number

Review The Zoners "Fearless" destroyer is an exceptional cruiser, being small, maneuverable enough to keep a sluggish pace with bombers, and having enough firepower to take the fight to ships on par with its class. It has a 'Little Mac' syndrome for its size packing a powerful punch, if filled out right. The vessel has four guns on top, the front center gun only able to aim a 180 degree arc, usually this one is best saved for a capital-class mortar, razor, or missile. The other three can aim in any direction except directly down. The bottom guns consist of three in the midsection of the ship, just like the top three, and two on the edges of its rounded profile. The two outer edge weapons can match the bottom three, or be a foreward-class weapon. In my case I outfitted the Fearless with one Light Mortar for the top and front gun, two Razors or Pulse cannons for the bottom two on its edges, and Solaris guns for the remaining 6 twin "triplets" on its top and bottom for fighting off fighters and bombers with equal ease. Otherwise, it offers much to customize towards the taste of the pilot on weapon usage and placement. Its smaller profile and agily needs to be noted, as in a fight this destroyer's low profile and size lends you an edge to be the last capital ship targetted, as you are unassuming and tiny against the backdrop of larger cruisers. Make that mistake be any bomber's last. Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Review by Lieutenant
