Description: Another class of ship that varies from vessel to vessel, the Hurr are not restricted to hull chassis designs when they decide to build their naval warships. From jagged edged corvette-esque runners to cylindrical horrors that sail through the Republic’s small borders, the term ‘gunship’ is the only thing appropriate to title them all. Bristling with ammunition-wasting ballistic cannons, the Hurr are happy to live uncomfortably and dangerously within these ships if it means they can put just a few more guns in the finished product.
