Phalanx Class History The Phalanx Class was designed as a competitor to the Primus class battlecruiser. The Primus, while fearsome in battle, was also easily outgunned by most space faring races' cruisers when they engaged it from medium to short range. This design was to remedy that. It used the same name as the Centauri OSATs to throw off other races' intelligence agencies. They were armed with two plasma accelerators, three matter cannons, two battle lasers, and six twin arrays. Most ships that engaged these vessels left the engagement with a bad tasts in their captains' mouths. Three variants existed, created along the same lines as the Legion class's variants. (Note: This was one of the six SCS's that Kreig601 sent. It's a very good SCS, and I'm quite happy with this version that Kreig thought up. )
