The Mobile Nullifier is a cruiser class ship for the Substrate.

Creates a mobile zone which blocks enemy Orbitals.

Background

This cruiser is a mobile platform for the Substrate's Quantum Jammer, which prevents orbital abilities from being called down within a certain area. While combat isn't its primary function, the Mobile Nullifier comes equipped with a medium-range all purpose defensive weapon by way of its 2 light plasma cannons. It also defends itself from air assults with 2 anti-air plasma cannons mounted on its towers.

Weapon Specs

Light Plasma Cannon [x2]

Medium-range all-purpose defensive weapon.

• 12 DPS per unit
• 500 meter range

Anti-Air Plasma Cannon [x2]

Tower mounted plasma cannons specifically designed to defend from enemy air units.

• 25 DPS per unit
• 500 meter range

 Game Usage

• The Mobile Nullifier is rather expensive but necessary to not having to constantly use the Orbital Jam to protect an attacking or a defending army that has wandered too far out of the Quantum Jammer building. While being bombarded by orbital abilities should not be a constant concern early and mid game, it is a better safe than sorry issue at late and end game, where losing an important army to an AoE orbital could be game ending.
• While having some self-defense weapons, the Nullifier is generally helpless and should be protected.
