Behemoth · Tier 8

Aerie

  • Legendary
  • 8,500,000,000.00 m³ per unit

An assault Behemoth built like a split mountain that takes its fighters into the line instead of holding them behind it: twelve heavy turrets stand on terraced ledges up two armored ridges, its wings drop from lit galleries down the chasm between them, and a doctrine suite lifts every ship that flies with it. It launches fewer wings than a Firmament and carries far more guns. Moors outside orbital stations; cannot land.

Overview

Assault Behemoth: twelve heavy turrets and 36 strike fighters, 18 out at once, +25% doctrine strength, +100% doctrine range, orbital berths only
