The Zeus is the heaviest assault unit. Its massive firepower is unrivalled.


Evaluation

ADVANTAGES

The Zeus Class is the ultimate warship. It possesses Rapid Fire against all other units in the universe except the Plasma Cannon, Large Decoy, Decoy, Hephaestus Class Attack Platform, and other Zeus. Furthermore, its massive hull and shield ratings make it difficult to destroy (see the Ineffectiveness Rule), and it can bring down every other ship and defense with a single hit except for other Zeus Class and Hephaestus Class Attack Platforms. It is also often used to destroy Defense on players that become inactive while in Diplomacy Mode.

DISADVANTAGES

It is more of a planetoid than a ship, with a base speed a twentieth of the pathetic speed of a Dionysus Class. It's incredibly expensive both to research and to build. Due to the expense, it can make the owner a target for those who think it would look better in their recyclers. It is best used as a defense, as any attacker who used it in an attack would be giving hours warning before it would actually strike. The Zeus is a fairly inefficient ship for its resource cost, however its massive weapons power gives it an edge in combat.
