Description

Prized for its ability to destroy almost anything smaller than itself, the Warhound is perhaps the most common Frigate in the CEU Navy. It was first Frigate to be constructed by Hyperion Systems and remains the largest ship sold to private customers. It's versatility, good acceleration and heavy armour cage have made it popular with a wide selection of clients, and the Warhound is often found leading PMC and mercenary fleets. In the CEU Navy it's wide range of duties include defending larger ships from smaller vessels and destroying support groups. While the Warhound has good armour and can withstand some punishment from small vessels, it should not be used head on against larger ships.

Notes

Strong Against:
FAC, most Corvettes, most Small Craft

Weak Against:
Hunter Killers, Ships of the Line

Huge thanks to Whiplash141 for all of his help with Scripts and Quality Control. You can check out his awesome work here:

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.

@Derp Gas I say do research on the more popular workshop ships, recognizable sci-fi ships, and *real* wet-navy combat vessels. As 5URG3 said, hopefully you find a good balance of aesthetics and utility.
I do agree with Agnar- stock missile turrets can turn on you during high-speed attacks. I personally might swap those out for OKIM guns since those don't run the risk of self-detonation.
@5URG3 Funnily enough your Wolfhound design reminds me a lot of my own battleship design- except it doesn't have a glaringly obvious "Shoot Me Here" bridge and isn't 40 tons at 320+ meters. :P

Ship looks great! Having the missile turrets so close together scares me a little, they like to shoot each other...

Thanks guys!

@Derp Gas Well, I think the best way is to practice and study the best workshop designs. That's what I did!
