Name: Gokstad
Hull: Maelstrom
Role: Behemoth

The Behemoth class Battleship is pure brute, with the ability to mount two Extra Large turrents it is geared toward high damage of orbital structures and enemy battle ships.
Due to the extra mass needed to support capital style weapons, the Behemoth is bulky and slow, the un-uniform density makes the ships control gyros struggle, lowering its overall agility.

Developer: Thexcorp Pty. Ltd.
Seeing a niche in the market Thexcorp Pty Ltd went about designing and creating a High Security space siege warfare ship. Sacrificing maneuverability for sheer power the Behemoth Battle Ship will leave all structures in its wake.

=========================================================================
Just an idea I thourght I might throw out there, there is a need for some type of ship for taking down POS's in HS, I'm sure anyone who has ever been involved in the taking down of a POS would agree. A ship with almost dread fire power but battle ship tank (but no tank bonus) and very low maneuverability. Could also be used in fleet engagements but at high risk to high fire power simular to say using a Tier 3 BC. Obviously there would be one for each race.
