ROBOTECH MODELS FOR WARCRAFT III
==================================
-------- GARFISH --------
==================================
>> by Jacopo Martinis <<
______
Story:
A light cruiser based on the animated series "Robotech" (originally "Macross" in Japan).
________
Details:
Standard light starship of the later Expeditionary Force, the Garfish qualifies as a cruiser by dint of its heavy beam cannon armament.
Internally, the Garfish class has a large general purpose hold in the central part of the ship. This hold allows the cruisers to be used as long endurance cruisers through storage of additional stores, but also as a high speed transport or even as an infantry assault craft by using the hold for general cargo or troops.
Externally, the most obvious features are the large underslung beam cannon turret, even if the cruiser lacks a close-in defensive armament and this took a heavy toll on the class during the attack waves against the Robotech Masters and the Invid.
