Description: One of the newest Earth Force ships built after their joining to the Interstellar Alliance, the Apollo was supposed to be superior in every way to the Sagittarius missile cruiser. It uses some of the best technologies that both Alliances could offer. Faster and more durable than its predecessor, the Apollo’s main focus is upon the advanced missile systems that can hurl volleys of deadly EA missiles at a much greater rate. With its dual phase Fairspace Industries jump drive, the Apollo can appear tactically wherever its deadly hailstorm of warheads are needed without having to rely too much on fleet support. It can deliver a massive onslaught of offensive power, but still requires some escort craft or patrolling gunboats to keep it from being overwhelmed by smaller ships able to get around its field of fire.

Called a ‘bombardment cruiser’ due to the threat such a ship would pose in a planetary siege, the classification was designed by the Joint Chiefs under President Luchenko in order to hopefully strike fear in the hearts of those who might have taken advantage of the chaos in the Earth Alliance in 2262.
