Ultra Capital Ship

Ultra Capital Ship is a class of super heavy starships including Dreadnaughts and Battleships.

There are few units that can compete with Ultra Capital Ships with tonnage, and they are unbeaten with firepower. While requiring vast amounts of manpower, resources, and sophisticated technology to be built, these units can serve as a fleets core.

Most Ultra Capital Ships can destroy any Super Capital Ship in matter of seconds. However almost half of the Ultra Capital Ships share the same weakness: a lack of effective anti-strike craft defense. Most of them have few point defense guns, while some of them don't have any weapons that could be a threat to bombers. Therefore a Ultra Capital alone can be destroyed by squadrons of bombers without significant losses. However, the Battleship is an exception. Almost all battleships are built with hanger bays for strike craft. It is also uncommon to find Ultra Capital Ships alone, as their construction cost is so high that they are rarely an acceptable loss in battle.

Improvements made during the Homeworld 2 Era allowed this class of ship to build its own subsystems making them more flexible and even useful.
