GVC Mentu:
Type: Vasudan Cruiser
Description: The GVC Mentu cruiser is the lightest of the new Vasudan warships. Following the Great War, allied scientists developed the beam cannons that now serve as the primary armaments of today's GTVA warships. Rather than modify existing ships, the Vasudans developed new designs to mount these weapons. The Mentu's 16 turrets include heavy beam cannons for duking it out with other warships, as well as AAA and flak turrets to fend off smaller craft. The GVC Somtus and the GVC Mycerinus recently demonstrated the strength of the Mentu against NTF forces in Epsilon Pegasi.

Although the Mentu gets a bad rap for not having any anti cap-ship weapons and bad firing arcs, it is still the strongest cruiser in the game, having 22,000 more hitpoints than an Aeolus. However, it doesn't make up for the fact that it can only bear a couple of turrets on an attacker at a time, making it relatively easy to attack.
