Ogrov Torpedo Cruiser
From Sins of a Solar Empire
The mighty Ogrov Torpedo Cruiser serves as the TEC's Anti-Structure Cruiser. Boasting the single-highest outright damage against structures in the game, the Ogrov is capable of firing a salvo of torpedoes at its hapless victim. The torpedoes are, more or less, space-borne ICBMs that make for quite an impression. In addition, Ogrov Torpedo Cruisers tend to continue moving during the attack until, in the case of a defensive structure, the Cruiser is just barely outside of the structure's offensive range. This means that, in a TEC-TEC mirror battle, commanders must be careful, because the sudden arrival of an Akkan Battlecruiser to boost the range of defensive structure could spell the doom for your Ogrov(s).
Despite the way it looks, the torpedoes are NOT fired from the Ogrov's central maw. The launchers are actually mounted around the rim of its "mouth," and the destructive weapons are as long as a basic Cobalt Light Frigate.
Unfortunately, the torpedoes are so unwieldy, they cannot target ships (as the targeting systems make them too cumbersome). So, it is advised that you keep your fleet of Ogrovs well-protected.
