ADVANTAGES
The Athena Class is one of the most cost-efficient heavy ships in the game. It comprises the backbone of many large fleets.
DISADVANTAGES
While the Athena Class is a formidable opponent in battle, its lack of rapid fire abilities against combat ships make some situations better handled by other ships. If the opposition has a giant fleet of Artemis Class ships, Poseidon Class would be a better choice. Against a defender with lots of Missile Turrets and Laser Cannons, the Ares Class would be preferred. So while the Athena Class hits hard in combat, it does not have rapid fire, limiting its use against opponents with superior numbers.
