Description

Due to the inherent instability of the asteroid belt, the CEU Navy does not consider capital ships to be a sound investment at this time. However, other fleets in the solar system have embraced the power and status of battleships and dreadnoughts and without a solid defence against these behemoths, the CEU is in danger of being annexed by its heavily armed neighbours. The Timber Wolf Heavy Torpedo Frigate is Hyperion Systems' response to this threat. Specifically designed to fight foes many times larger than itself, the Timber Wolf is equipped with two forward facing Thunderbolt Torpedo Launchers to aid it in it's giant killing. Three torpedo variants allow several combinations of attacks. In close range fights, inert steel based torpedoes prevent damage to the Timber Wolf while continuing to inflict heavy blows against capital vessels. At longer ranges, a High Explosive/ECM combination can pierce almost any defence, including grav shields and Missile Turret batteries. Against lightly armed opponents, twin High Explosive Torpedoes can quickly reduce large cargo vessels to scrap. The Timber Wolf can even support Hawk, Tiger & Jackal attacks by firing dual ECM Torpedoes ahead of them, causing chaos for enemy defences in preparation for the inevitable missile storm. This weaponry combined with good speed and dual jump drive arrays allow groups of Timber Wolves to destroy sluggish enemy capital ships before they even have a chance to react.

Notes

Possible Combinations:
Shield Piercing Kinetic Torpedo = KN
Shield Piercing High Explosive Torpedo = HE
ECM Torpedo = ECM

KN/KN
Reduces danger of stray missiles detonating warheads inside the launchers. Good for when it is under attack from small ships.
HE/HE
For extra firepower against lightly armed opponents. Danger of warheads detonating in launcher if under fire. Significant distance to target is strongly recommended.
HE/ECM
For heavy firepower against heavily defended opponents. Danger of warheads detonating in launcher if under fire. Significant distance to target is strongly recommended.
ECM/ECM
For assisting other vessels by distracting enemy turret targeting systems.

Strong Against:
Capital Ships, Stations

Weak Against:
Frigates, Destroyers, HK, SAC Squadrons.

I try to make all my ships suitable for use in survival PvP and I'm trying to achieve some sort of balance between vessels to allow for multiple fleet builds, if you use my ships and find a good combination or a bug/problem, let me know.
