Shipwright says... The Astraeus's massive guns will make any enemy think twice before attacking.

The Astraeus is a level 10 warship with a heavy armament and a strong hull. While its size and speed make it an easy target, its raw firepower and sheer health often result in the Astraeus decimating an enemy. Additionally, the Astraeus fits 2 light mortars on its bow often used to siege an enemy from a distance. One of the largest downfalls of the Astraeus is its slow turn speed, allowing faster ships to maneuver into blindspots.
