The '''Thunderchild''' is the [[EDENCOM]] [[battleship]]. It gets access to a Large Vorton Projector, a special turret that can fire chain lightning at ships.
Despite not having the same shield resistances as the [[Skybreaker]] and [[Stormbringer]], the Thunderchild can still field unbelievably thick shields. It is a very slow ship, but it can project lighting out to 144km, and potentially apply as much damage as a HAW ''Dreadnought'', albeit spread across a fleet rather than focused on one target. It is, however, a very expensive ship to train for, construct, and fit, and its use cases are not well understood as many other ships would be considered less ponderous and more efficient at lower prices.
Vorton Projectors use [[Missile damage|Missile damage mechanics]] to determine their damage application. The Thunderchild's weapon has similar damage application to tech 1 Cruise Missiles, making it most effective against Battleships and requiring application support (Target Painters, Stasis Webifiers) to effectively damage Battlecruisers or below.
