Ho'kan Assault Battleship

The Assault Battleship was a Ho'kan seafaring warship with amphibious capabilities used during the Hemmo Wars.

Background

With the Hemmoian Unity controlling large swathes of CCHemmo shoreline, the Ho'kan Empire sought a versatile solution to coastal threats that could press onto the shore to secure a beachhead. Years of design conducted in secret, headed by a council of military vehicle specialists, resulted in the assault Battleship - an amphibious warship featuring a highly accurate armor-piercing cannon suitable for land and sea warfare, as well as layers of specially-designed armor that can be activated to draw enemy fire away from otherwise-unprotected targets.

Characteristics

In spite of the assault Battleship's raw power as an amphibious armored assault vehicle, its greatest strength may have been its defensive capability. First and foremost, this vessel's reinforced hull could shrug off all but the most violent of concussive blasts - the assault Battleship was probably the single most heavily armored element of the Ho'kan military.

The assault Battleship provides the Ho'kan fleet with heavy anti-surface and anti-submarine defense. To assist the taking and expansion of beachheads, the ship may deploy onto land on four treads as a tank. Befitting its immense mass, once on land it may simply run over lesser vehicles, destroying them instantly.
