Description: The Vorchan is universally regarded as a good ship. The Demos was an attempt to make it even better and to a large degree, it succeeded. Though based aesthetically on the Vorchan’s hull, the Demos is effectively a whole new design that incorporates the best weapon technology the Centauri possess. Using powerful ballistic torpedoes and plasma accelerators to tear into an enemy, the Demos can make short work of ships much larger than itself.

It is certainly a warship to be feared, though critics point out that the loss of speed eliminates the Demos from missions the Vorchan was intended for in the first place – a lightning fast raider. Even so, most Centauri houses have a few of these on hand and nearly every fleet uses the old ‘Demos surprise’ trick when two Vorchans fly in a slow patrol with a Demos, allowing for a very confused enemy when the center most ship begins to blast away with a lot more that twin arrays.
