Perseus - The Paranid Perseus, an M3 class ship, has an unusually powerful weapons generator for a ship of its class. The ship is very effective in escort roles and as part of a fighter wing, able to provide both sustained firepower with the AHEPT and area effect damage with the BPSG (a weapon few other M3s share the ability to mount). The Perseus is the successor to the Prometheus. Its first test run was considered an embarrassment to the Paranid as it was stolen by a Pirates, leading to their request for external help to recover it.
The ship was initially tested with shields used for corvette ships but they wrecked havoc with some of the internal systems so they were changed for above standard sizes.
