Description: Smaller than most Angelic battleships, Crusaders tend to strike a balance between weaponry, armor, and acceleration. They are able fill many types of rolls on the battlefield while not being overly adapt at one. Many Crusaders often serve as command ships for smaller fleets when the presence of an Angel Class ship is not needed or is not available. As such they are the highest Class of ship Humans can command themselves within the Angelic Union.

"Surrender, you stand no chance, this Crusader Class vessel has unparalleled firepower."
"Those beams look pretty parallel to me"
-Spartacus of the Crusader "Blinding Light" to Rebel Commander Hazzlin, Captain of the "Laughing Behind Your Back"
Armament & Systems:
1 Atonement Class Heavy Ion siege array (Best fired in unfocused mode for maximum effect).
Forward mounted Quad firing Heavy Ion Cannons
2 Shield-Buster Ion Missile arrays
4 Vertical launch Lock-on Missile arrays (2 top & 2 bottom, each firing 3 missiles for a total of 12) with enhanced explosive yield
2 Lock-on Ion Missile turrets
140 Anti-Missile Turrets
Ionic Shielding (50% bonus)
Jump Drive
Jammer
Scanner
Interrior:
Small by most standards, however there is a Command deck, decontamination room, Med bay, Mess Hall, Captain's quaters, Crew Quarters, waste disposal, and Engineering room.
----
Designer's Notes: This took me a while to finish and was partially completed when the new update hit that doubled shields, so it has a bit more shielding than ships of it class tend to have. I'm a bit unsatisfied with the main beam array so if anyone has any improvements I'd be glad to implement them. Other than that please rate and enjoy.
