Description: Designed to be a hunter/killer ship of the Narn Regime in search of smaller prey, the Var’Nic long range destroyer is a mightily deadly ship with the ability to jump into a system, scan out a viable target it can destroy quickly, and devour it with its overwhelming firepower. While not particularly effective against larger vessels due to its lack of focused range, it is an excellent battlefield bully and does well searching out smaller craft. In a single attack pass, it can easily cripple a targeted ship of smaller size or deal moderate damage to larger vessels.

Its ion torpedo launchers are powerful weapons to use against targets on longer ranged theaters, and are brutally accurate and can soften up a target quite well before closing into laser or pulse cannon range to be finished off. The ship was designed to have weaponry at every tactical range category – in order to make sure the faster targets do not get away from it unscathed. Unlike so many of the Narn Regime’s vessels that act as jacks-of-all-trades, the Var’Nic operates as the space lane sniper of the Regime – always looking for an easy kill to add to the long list each ship tends to accumulate.
