Overview
The Flak Cannon fires explosive shrapnel bursts designed to shred swarm fleets — interceptors, fighters, and probes arriving in large numbers.
Special capabilities
Anti-swarm
- Bonus vs Swarms — extra effectiveness against dense formations of small hulls
- Very high Rapid Fire multipliers vs Light Interceptor, Light Fighter, and Probe
- Best when raiders send cheap hulls instead of a single heavy line
Strategic Use
- Core answer to interceptor/fighter clouds in mid Realm 1
- Less efficient vs lone Cruiser or Battleship hits — keep mixed batteries
- Stack behind Small Shield Dome or Large Shield Dome so flak survives long enough to fire
