Serpent III Battleship

Published:

Description

The months after the first raid were a race to build the key weapon that would tip the odds of success in favour of Siltyria. With additonal human technology and innovation, and understanding of the tactics being used by the raiders and an understanding of their own vessels, some of which had been captured or salvages, Siltyrian researchers drew up the plan for, and built, the Serpent III.

It was an improvement of the vastly outdated Serpent II, built on the same style of hull. The main differences being the additional of a large number of smaller guns mounted on both sides and in the wheel houses, together being able to attack in any direction, the widening of the hull body which, when wet, is impossible to stand on and the addition of spikes, blades and corkscrews on the sides of the hull which render ladders, ropes and other boarding equipment ineffective- a direct address to the biggest weakness of the Serpent II.

Contextually, an improved version of this old thing: [link]

Hmmm It feels more like a Battlecruiser type ship at most, rather than a Battleship.
