Missile Ships

Missile Ships are a class of Starships dedicated to countering ships smaller than them. They have Missile Launchers (Light & Heavy) to destroy ships too small to hit with heavier-hitting Assault Turrets. They can, additionally, provide damage against heavier ships with Arsenal Missiles and Thermonuclear Missiles, capable of outright destroying individual shields on contact. However, Missile Ships are very vulnerable to being divebombed by Assault Ships, who can outlive or outspeed volleys of Missiles. Logistics Ships are preferred to keep the Missile Ship alive in close-combat with Assault Ships
