With the design success of the Einherjar Catapult we began brainstorming new ideas on how to better improve the success of boarding parties. A recent Schemadyne software patch to damage pulse systems was the answer to our question.
The Cinder is a specialized Hard Missile designed to piggy back on the star ship AIs behavior when utilizing the pulse system. When a valid target is within range the cinder will immediately fly at it at full speed till its within melee range. It will then attack the target with its pulse system however lasting damage is not the systems purpose. the boarding party may ride along within the Cinder or even on top of it to get to their target.
Since speed was top priority defense and cost had to be down sized. Thankfully we have provided a light shield as extra armor. This shield will automatically activate when the cinder is launched.
