The Eidolon was a surprise to many in the Republic. As ships like the Cerberus took the spotlight, the Eidolon was produced almost entirely in secret, and released with little publicity at all. This secrecy covered up a more controversial element of the ship's development - most Eidolon's found themselves in the service of the PFS corporation, rather than the Republic Navy - a violation of the limitations on corporations proposed by TVSI many decades ago.

It was clear that PFS was growing in power and influence, and their growing relationship with the Navy alarmed many in more pacifist corporations like KUS. However, because PFS had gained a monopoly on Defence, and the Typhon Initiative was well liked by the Ministers of Defence, there was little that those in power were willing or able to do about it.

The Eidolon would go on to be the Navy's premier hunter-killer ship, as it embodies the philosophy behind the Typhon Initiative: Long range artillery. It is pure in its role, with only light armor and no other weapons but its large compliment of missiles. Its jump range and speed ensures that it can evade enemies with ease, and always be able to strike first and strike hard.


Controls



DO NOT control these systems (i.e. the bay doors) manually (through the K menu). Use the preset controls so that things stay in sync.

1. Turn the welders on to produce the missiles. You should turn off the welders before launching to help performance.
   
2. Make sure the bay doors are open. There will be a light that comes on in the cockpit to inform you of this.
   
3. Choose guidance mode, lock on if necessary, and fire desired amount. These missiles are fire and forget.

For better lock precision, there's a camera on Tab 2 to help you. The lock will occur at the center of your screen if you have switched Precision Mode to Offset. Otherwise, the missiles will target the target's center.

Stop using filthy, ugly Terran cameras. Get clean, sleek Titian cameras here.
