Dominator - Class Subspatial Starship

Subspatial Starship used by the Cypher Dominion. The Dominator class is unique in that it has no weapons that can reach normal space form subspace or vice versa. However, it is excellently well armoured and armed to take on any targets at a similar depth as its own, similar to a battleship. Due to this, it can even make short work of Hyperion Federation Subspatial Starships.
These ships, like most other CD ships, are powered through a large wormhole from a dedicated power station. It can recieve power even from other galaxies and can travel in subspace for near-eternity. Other subspatial starships can fight it by using a depth that is different from a Dominator class, with subspace weaponry which can close the 4-dimensional gap. The Dominator is often used as a surprise battleship and decieve the enemy into thinking a CD fleet has less firepower than it truly has - and then when the enemy fleet is engaged with a CD fleet and exposed the Dominators can come out of subspace. It is difficult to perform flanking maneuvers due to the sheer scale and speed of the battleship, but it is possible and requires a lot of planning in advance. These moves also dont always succeed, particularly when the enemy force brings more subspatial starship detectors than thought. This excellent versatility comes at the cost of reduced firepower and armour compared to other battleships of a similar weight class, the subspatial traveller machine requiring a significant amount of power and internal volume. To make room for space inside, some points on the ship has weak points as well, allowing lower grade starship weapons to target them assuming a very good accuracy.
