In the time-honored tradition of pirates everywhere, Korako ‘Rabbit' Kosakami shamelessly stole the idea of the Scorpion-class battleship and put his own spin on it. The result: the fearsome Rattlesnake, flagship of any large Gurista attack force. There are, of course, also those who claim things were the other way around; that the notorious silence surrounding the Scorpion's own origins is, in fact, an indication of its having been designed by Kosakami all along.

Summary

The Rattlesnake is a combination missile and drone boat. It has enough drone bandwidth for deployment of a full flight of heavy drones at a time, with the bay to carry several additional flights of drones of any size. While the Rattlesnake has a bonus to velocity (and therefore range) of cruise missiles and torpedoes, it does not have a bonus to their damage and only has 4 launcher slots, so most of the Rattlesnake's damage is expected to come from its drones. This also means the Rattlesnake is not a particularly high damage dealer among pirate battleships when compared to ships such as the Nightmare or Machariel. The Rattlesnake does however have the best tank in its class by quite a margin, which makes it a popular level 4 mission runner and also a capable level 5 mission runner with maximum skills.
