Forge-Class Cruiser

Forge-Class Cruisers are the frontline warship of the ISA navy. Essentially weapons platforms with engines, Forge Cruisers are respected as a warship by the Singulus, do in large part to cruiser's performance during the Singulus Invasion when a fleet of them repelled their thrust into the inner colonies.

War in a Ship
Forge Cruisers were invisioned as the all-in-one naval vessel to combat the Singulus. ISA planners noticed a need for more of these expensive cruisers when the new class of ships went toe-to-toe with the Singulus navy and won many of their engagments. Over 11 miles long and 4 miles across, these ships come packed with 120 launch tubes capable of launcging Excavation-class missiles, ten minature laser banks mounted on all sides of the hull, and high output UV lasers for anti-fighter and point-defense roles. Usually found in the center of an ISA battlegroup, Forge cruisers are designed for dealing incredible damage from afar and not engage in a one-on-one match with othe Singulus ships. Forge ships also benefit from better engines and turning speed, somthing the Singulus Styxx -cruisers lack.
