Desurus-Pattern Long Range Dreadnought

The Desurus-Pattern Long Range Dreadnought was a Covenant ship used by the Brutes during the Earth-Covenant War. Unlike most Covenant warships, the Desurus-Pattern featured a weapon known as the Garm-Gal Plasma Projector, which fired a highly destructive ball of plasma large enough to crack ships such as the legendary Sh'wada-Pattern Supercarrier in twain. Aside from this superweapon, it also featured the unconventional Go'e-ram Slipspace Plasma Torpedo, and while they had a low amount of propellant, they could be transported using the Desurus-Pattern's Slipspace Drive, greatly extending their effective range. To achieve this, the Desurus had it's Slipspace Matrix housed near the front of the ship, allowing it to be connected to two experimental devices known as "Slipspace Projection Relays", which were mounted close to the Plasma Projector. Despite the risk of losing the Relays due to a misfire, they proved to be effective at destroying vessels ranging from the small Paris-class to the much larger and much sturdier Thermoplyae.
