==== Iron Thorn ====

[[File:Iron_Thorn.jpg|300px|right|thumb|A ''thorn'' in your heart.]]

The Carrier Battleship of the family. The Iron Thorn is the second most cost-efficient carrier of launch bays at 134 points per bay, with the [[Fiend Ascendant-class Cruiser|Fiend Ascendant]] coming in at 129 points and the [[Burning Scale-class Light Cruiser|Burning Scale]] at 180 points for its single bay.

Thanks to the considerable firepower of the underlying weaponry that comes constant across the 3 specialist Battleship hulls, the Iron Thorn is also a potent warship beyond just being a large carrier vessel, giving extra cause for choosing one to lead a carrier fleet, despite its second-place efficiency.

It is armed with 1 Super Heavy Launch Bay carrying [[Razorwing Jetfighter|Razorwing Bombers]], [[Raptor Fighter]]s and [[Slavebringer Assault Boat]]s, 3 Heavy [[Scythe Missile Launcher|Scythe Missile Artillery,]] 6 [[Scythe Missile Launcher|Scythe Missile Artillery]] and 1 [[Phantom Lance]] Artillery Batteries. It's a Carrier Battleship, ''you want it''.
