The PVB Amun

Description:

FS1 Tech Room Description

The Amun is the Vasudans heaviest bomber class ship. It carries a massive payload and has been responsible for the destruction of at least 3 Orion class destroyers in the past 2 years. Fortunately, it is slow and has low maneuverability, making it an easy target for our fighters. Fighter pilots should be wary of the two turrets on this ship: they are not to be ignored.

The Amun is considered a B class threat to all cruisers and capital ships. They should be given top priority in target selection during escort operations.

Developer Notes

Suitable for any size target. Carries most missile types, but few cannons. Armed with defensive turret, but still requires escort.

Veteran Comments

Whatever Vasudan thought it would be a good idea to replace this with the Osiris should be shot as a traitor, because surely only the GTA and Shivans benefited from that decision. The Amun has superior payload and defenses, including three turrets. While slow, and rarely bothering to demonstrate it, the Amun is a surprisingly capable dogfighter. It has the armor and shielding to stand up to fire long enough to bring you into its sights, and then unleash a torrent of ordnance few ships can survive.

In fact, the Amun only has 2 Banshee turrets. Is an effective bomber, but very slow and unmanageable, like the GTB Ursa.
