Designed using a combination of the [[Vaadwaur]]'s 900-year-old martial philosophy and cutting-edge technology derived from the [[Vaadwaur Supremacy|Supremacy]]'s [[Iconian|mysterious benefactors]], the Astika strikes an unusual, aggressive profile. The Astika packs all its key systems, including weapons, engines, and crew space into its primary hull, with minimal usage of secondary hulls or outboard structures. The sides of the hull house numerous weapon hardpoints, including the infamous Vaadwaur polaron barrage emitters. The deflector is mounted along the forward "nose" area, exposing the minimal amount of necessary surface area to allow functionality. The bridge is housed inside an armored "tower" structure at the rear of the dorsal hull, where it overlooks the ship's Assault Relays in the spine of the ship. When activated, the assault relays rise up and expose their energy-conducting surfaces to increase the power of outgoing weapons fire. The ventral support buttresses located between the barrage emitters also extend outward when assault relays are active. The Astika's warp nacelles are concealed inside a pair of armored "wings" located towards the rear of the hull, alongside five large impulse engine ports. Vaadwaur impulse engines emit a bright red exhaust, giving the Astika and other Vaadwaur ships a distinct visual "trail" in local space. == Starship Mastery == {{StarshipMastery | masterytype = T6 | shiptype = eng | shipfaction = cross | masterypackage = battlecruiser | trait = Supremacy | traitdesc = Beam: Fire at Will and Cannon: Scatter Volley boost power levels.<br><ul><li>+2 All Power Settings for 15 sec per target hit while Cannon: Scatter Volley or Beam: Fire at Will is active.</li></ul> }} ==Abilities== ===Universal console=== {{PAGENAME}} comes equipped with the {{item|Console - Universal - Assault Mode Relays||epic}}. * {{abilityicon|Assault Mode (Astika)|Federation|24px}} {{ability|Assault Mode}} This console is part of the ''[[Vaadwaur Artillery Set]]'', which also includes {{item|Console - Universal - Polaron Barrage Launcher||epic}} obtainable with the [[Vaadwaur Manasa Assault Escort]] (T6), but also equippable on the {{PAGENAME}}.
