Design Specifications - The Scythe Gunship is primarily a support vessel. Nothing special has been added, it is cheap, easily mass produced, and reliable. For its size it packs a decent punch, but alone it doesn't stand much of a chance against capital ships. It does, however have 2 Assault missle tubes. A large group of Scythes volleying their missles at a capital ship can do a tremendous amount of damage. It does have one major drawback... its shield strength is a little below average for a gunship.
