STAR TREK ONLINE – Tier six | the Alita Class heavy escort carrier..

 

Given that you want to down size your carrier from a Galaxy dreadnought carrier to something smaller with still the same amount of fire power but with a little more maneuverability… Given the Armitage Heavy Escort carrier class is your best bet among with being Jem Hadar…

“The Alita Class, Heavy escort Carrier”… Is an extremely durable ship also depending how you kit or modified it out as to its fleet variant… as to its can load out with canons it becomes a fully frontal assault ship. with four fore weapons in which can be out fitted with cannons and torpedoes, and three rear as with turrets…  with this in mind though it best to stay a comfortable distance from you target or opponents to minimised the forward shields..   The Alita is basically a Tactical and Engineering ship, of five tactical consoles three engineering and two sciences modifiers and as you install a Fleet variant  Engines to weapons warp core your firepower will increase due to plus 15 to weapons and five to engines bonuses..

Given that you install all out beams, two forward torpedoes consoles, it will give you the most coverage of minimizing shield drainage and you can combat in very close range…as you install beams is best to rotate your Alita class around to maximised beam’s arcs to give maximum damage.. and also to give your weapons enough cool down to recharge..

Alita is interesting with a longer engineering hull you might want to shorten the ship length in case you’re running on canons to give the cool down, if given a longer hull beams weapons can provide most of the cover… to take all four sides of the ship…also it’s a carrier in so your shuttles will give you most cover.. In very similar conditions as you run with a saucer separation.. In doing so like having two ships..  With the bridge stations.. It’s all Tactical in Lt, Cmdr., with an Lt.Cmdr Engineering/ Pilot…  With this in mind you can full utilized your bridge officer’s abilities in tactical engineering to give you the advantages…

As to if you equip your Alita class with a three piece set the Universal consoles of the Point Defences systems, Torpedo point Defence systems, also the destabilized Tachyon emitters it’ll give you an increase in recharge time also Pilot bridge officers abilities… Increase in accuracy, and critical hit chance…  it’s an interesting ship as a training ground for the next one in mind for the Fleet variant once your fleet starbase hits tier five..

Taking command of the heavy escort carrier is one of the best moves after having a Heavy escort and its refit… Also having the previous two makes an interesting learning curve and experience to get to know more about the Armitage class..

Having to get to know more about the Heavy escorts of Akria, Oslo, Zephyr classes, also too of the Thunderchild class… moving onwards to the Armitage they three class maneuvers the same turn rate of fifteen degrees per second.. orthough it’s a bit the Armitage class hull is a little long, but you could modify the hulling and looks to give you the maximum competitive advantages of giving the best turn rate in utilising firing forward weapons dual heavy cannons, arrays, torpedoes   and for the rear weapons load is to utilising the best of turrets and arrays to maximizing out the a frontal assaults then cleaning with port or starboard side banking so it’ll allow your front shields to regenerate..

There’s few fashionably additions that comes with newly out fitted as a carrier so you could equip your ship with different fighters like how they did it with the multi mission explorer (Vesta class), Atrox and the Jem Hadar carrier class… as a carrier this will give you added advantages in tidying up the battle and creating diversions in process so it reduces your intake damages..  The other  thing is the universal console  Photon Torpedo Defences system   in which you could off load and place this photon torpedo turret  in any of your ships in your shipyard..  The Photon Torpedo Defence System is pretty niffy helpful where you in the beehive hive swarms of enemy ships surrounding you, and could provide useful in where you met the Terrain Empire ships incursions..

The Armitage class is a tier five, season six class ship, this ship will probably will get you out form any situation that you might encounter, and also it’s a transition ship class to the Fleet version  or a training  ship to the Avenger battle cruiser where the feel  between two class are almost the same.. also how you modified  it out aswell..
