Description:
Completely confident in his choice to be a warmonger, Mahal was never against creating backroom deals with less than reputable persons provided such interactions were kept secret to remain appealing in the public eye. As such, the Viduus-class Assault Cruiser was brought into existence by the request of a "special" individual. However, it was made clear that once the ship was given the green light, it would join the ranks of the Aesir line of ships, and thus could be used as a weapon against them. All's fair in love and war, as some would say.
Ultimately, the Viduus was merely a modified variation of the Somnus-class Ion Attack Cruiser of the Aesir line, though the modifications and intentions in its design was enough to warrant a new designation. Whereas its older brother was built solely for suppression, the Viduus was meant to be a heavy assault craft, ready to bring destruction, though enough ion weaponry to silence another vessel was kept considering the profession of the client.
Great effort and resources were put into its creation as the team at Lyncitech worked to improve every aspect of the original design. Speed and mobility were increased a bit to allow it move freely in battle as its hull and shields were buffed to ensure it could hold out longer as a solo vessel against multiple ships of average or weak strength. Its biggest improvement came to the weapon load out. Turning it into an all around assault vessel allowed a bit more creativity in what weapons it could wield. Seven heavy, triple barrel turrets made up the greatest power of the ship and was divided between turbolaser and ion weaponry with the second or middle one containing the ion variant. It also was given twenty-five dual turbolaser turrets, fifteen dual ion cannon turrets, 25 dual point defense turrets, fifteen dual point defense ion cannon turrets, four assault concussion missile launchers with ten missiles each, and a pair of ion pulse missile launchers holding ten missiles each.
It also was able to carry two hundred troops and thrity-six starfighters.
