Zircon Squadron
Zircon Squadron is an ambush fleet capable of exceptional burst damage against heavy targets. The two lineships can unleash a massive volume of plasma, shredding the armor of targets at close to medium range, before following up with a withering hail of 100mm gunfire. However, they will fall apart if caught by sustained fire in open space, and they have a long reload between bursts. To plan its ambushes, the squadron features an EWR tugboat that can provide situational awareness from afar. This fleet benefits from careful management of lineship facing using the HDG and ROL commands and smart ammo type selection: Grapeshot for craft, HE for small ships, AP for medium and large ships, or HE-HC once a target has had its armor shredded by plasma.
