Magnus!The Latin word for "huge" is now the TEC word for,"Get off of my property or ELSE!"When the enemy needs a real beating,send in the Magnus!
All the specs and such are still in the works,but here's how things stand for now:
The Magnus is going to be the largest of the Titan class ships among the 3 factions.This is because the TEC have the home-team advantage as it were,and loads of resources.This does not affect the stats of power compared to the others.Its just bigger.
Weapons stats:Able to fire 117 missiles in one round from its multiple missile banks.
Armed with 7 Titan Class Heavy Beams.5 forward,2 backward.
A whole bunch of Heavy Laser Batteries,I have to check back on the precise number,but I do remember off the top of my head that 2 of them are rear facing for those times when you're about to leave,and an enemy fleet shows up behind you.
The abilities.These are the abilities it will have,but damage,cooldown,and antimatter costs are still being worked out:
Radiated Nutrino Burst..Remember the little particles that caused problems in a certain recent end-of-the-world movie named after a certain upcoming year?Well these are them,and the TEC are blasting them in a huge area of effect attack on their enemies.This causes all enemy weapon banks to explode,dealing damage and dropping firepower of them all.Again how much is not yet certain,but expect it to be scary,this is a Titan.
Massive Fleet Reconstruction.The TEC don't have enough area of effect abilities,and the Magnus aims to fix that.With this ability,large amounts of antimatter are sucked from surrounding foes and used to fuel a huge aural field that repairs the hull,shields,and antimatter reserves of friendlies in the area.
Plutonium Field.This fun highly radioactive element is purged into a radius around the Magnus,dealing damage to all strike craft in the area over time.The damage and time are still being worked out.
Now if you think any of these abilities sound unfair,PLEASE remember 3 things.1:These are Titans.They are to be feared.I personally want to see small to small-ish medium sized fleets turn and run from them.2:We're working on other ships that can be used to counter them.3:We will be balance testing,and the time for adjusting the numbers is then,not now.
Thanks for participating in the voting everyone,and keep checking back,this mod is on a roll thanks to you!

question wormy? Why don't you space between your commas and periods.
I see no purpose to it.Its obvious where one word begins and another ends when they have a period or a comma between them.Plus it saves characters when you have a limit.
hmm i hope it is visibly larger than the regular capital ships in a good way.
It will indeed be bigger than regular capital ships.The TEC will be 2.5 to 3 times as long as a Kol.The precise size will be determined later,to be sure it doesn't look odd.
