Veteran Comments
Please read the Veteran Comments policy before editing this section.
One of the first successful attempts to mount beam cannons on a spacecraft, the Vindhyachal should never be underestimated. It's not like the other bombers, nothing but sitting ducks for a skilled interceptor pilot: this bomber's hull is very difficult to hit because of the Vindhyachal's shape and it's always a good idea to use secondary weapons, possibly at long range.
If ever you loathed the Seraphim or Nephilim for being so damn difficult to kill, the Vindhyachal will have you in paroxysms of rage at its durablity. Do not underestimate the sheer amount of ordnance required to bring one of these down.
Another thing is that it is very flat, chasing it from behind is going to throw you into fits of rage as the thing is so damn hard to hit from behind, as you're getting wasted by a bunch of turrets at the same time.
