Borealis

undefined

General
The Borealis is a slow, but long range Thorn ship that can deal very high damage to Ships and Capital Ships alike.

Advantages
The Borealis is synonymous with the term "glass cannon". It can deal enough damage to one shot a ship, especially some Blockers, like the Legionnaire. Its damage to Capital Ships is nothing to scoff at either, dealing significant damage.

Its long range can make it easy to get the first shot once the Round begins, allowing you to get the upper hand.

Disadvantages
The Borealis has very low health, in compensation for its very high damages, as well as having a lengthy firing cycle. Ships can easily kill it before it can fire again and its large build makes it more vulnerable to flanking.

It can only be deployed once, so if used, it should be shielded with other ships so that it can't die before reaching the Capital Ship.
