Development In YC 116, Mordu’s Legion intelligence reported to command that the Guristas pirates were developing new and advanced strike craft capabilities using unknown technologies. In response to these reports, Mordu’s Legion accelerated a program of ship development that was itself a response to trends in capsuleer tactics and warfare. The crash development and manufacturing effort resulted in a new family of fast strike ships integrated with one another to provide tactical flexibility and firepower across ship class lines.
The Garmur takes up the small craft spot in the Legion’s new strike formations and represents a fast-moving attack frigate with superior missile delivery capabilities.

Summary
The Garmur is the Mordu's Legion frigate added in the Kronos expansion. It is high speed dedicated missile ship, with a large bonus to warp disruptor and scrambler range, making it an excellent kiting ship. Its modifiers to missile velocity and flight time combine to give it 50% more missile range. This means it can quite effectively "rocket kite" by firing precision rockets up to 20km, as well as a more conventional light missile kiting strategy.
The high speed and warp disruptor range bonus on the Garmur make it a good skirmish scout and initial tackler in fleets, competing with interceptors for the job. The main downside is of course the extra expense, given the role doesn't have a very high life expectancy, and it is also missing the significant MWD signature bonus that interceptors get.
