Star Trek: Armada III begins with the first stirrings of the Dominion War and allows players to take command of five unique factions, the United Federation of Planets, the Klingon Empire, the Romulan Star Empire, the Cardassian Union/Dominion Alliance, and the Borg Collective. Explore strange new worlds, seek out new life and new civilizations, and boldly go where no one has gone before.
Developed alongside its larger and smaller brothers (the Buzzard-class warbird and the Hawk-class frigate, respectively), the Griffin interdictor cruiser is another recent addition to the Romulan fleet designed specifically to compliment the Imperial Navy's existing, more general-purpose designs.
In this case, while the Griffin performs exceptionally well as a medium cruiser, it is specially equipped with powerful warp field inhibiters that deny its targets the option of escaping to warp. This makes the Griffin especially suited to ambush scenarios, swooping in on its trapped prey to make the kill.
Aside from its special design features, the Griffin is well armed with plasma torpedoes and banks of disruptor cannons that allow it to fight viciously in the Empire's interests.
Is that an updated model? Looks good :)
Textures looked revamped. Much sleeker especially the head, looks new.
How about the Shrike Class? Well that's what they use to call it back in the day, in the previous versions of Armada the windows seemed off and quickly put together, was there a retexture on that one?
