Tips
This warship class is designed to counter smaller ships, leveraging its wide arc pulse cannons, light turrets, and its tracking heavy lasers.
Gunships are countered directly by Corvettes, and indirectly by Light Frigates, and Attack Frigates. Gunships are a direct counter to Interceptors and Starfighters.
