Brawler (LP)

Up to date for latest version, 0.97a.

	Fanatics of the Luddic Path have made this ship their own, stripping out all unnecessary trimmings and transforming it into a haphazard vehicle of holy war. Typically deployed to beef up system police forces and port authority security, the Brawler-class frigate is a robust design which trades mobility for impressive firepower, armor, and a destroyer-grade power generator.

Overview

A Brawler that has been given some "interesting" modifications by the Luddic Path, its original ship systems has been gutted out for an Accelerated Ammo Feeder instead.

The Luddic Path variant comes with built-in Safety Overrides hullmod, turning it into a very different ship - It is much faster than the base Brawler and can handle some of the most flux-hungry medium ballistic weapons such as the Assault Chaingun. As if that wasn't enough, the ship also replaces the now-obsolete Maneuvering Jets with Accelerated Ammo Feeder for even more firepower. While it still remains vulnerable to fighters, in numbers a well-fit Brawler LP can threaten even capital ships.

Availability

Can be found in Luddic Path fleets and markets.

Tips and strategies

• The Brawler (LP) works best as an aggressive point-capturing ship that can threaten both frigates and destroyers with close-range weapons like the Assault Chaingun or Heavy Machine Gun.
