== Description ==
The Atlantic is a Cruiser variant that was deployed as a part of the “Council Fleet”. This is a fleet that once divided it’s forces between defence of the Capital System and escort of the ECV Justicar.
Whilst the Council Fleet no longer exists, the Atlantic Class still sees a largely focused emphasis on patrols and security of heavily populated sectors of GER space.
As they spend so much time within heavily populated GER space, their design (as with the rest of the Council Fleet) is more aesthetically pleasing than the blunt practicality of many military vessels.
These ships focus on the low-collateral factor of missile warfare due to the fact that they operate within civilian-heavy sectors. A missed shot with a kinetic cannon could wipe out a city whereas an inaccurate missile salvo could be auto-destructed before any collateral damage were to be caused.
