All stats subject to change as the devs release more information about the cruiser class. This is simply an idea for now, as I really have no skill in modelling that I know of. If you’d like to add to the idea, please do so, as I have no idea how cruisers are going to work. ^^;

The four plasma turrets are mounted on the rear of the ship by the engines with two on top and two on bottom. The missile turrets and beam turrets are on the front of the ship, mounted on either side.
