The battleship is one of the most important warships. It can knock out entire defense systems. The advantage: the speed provided by the warp engine.
Trivia[]
The battleship is the only ship which uses the EMP cannon. Thanks to warp technology, it is equipped with a powerful engine.
The non-existent "EMP cannon" does not influence the Battleship's attacking upon defences. This line was added into the description as "flavour text", in order to make the battle ship seem interesting.
