"Always point toward enemy particles." - user manual Wide Stop design is meant to stop particles and hold a defensive position instead of leading an attack. Its wide body allows to shut gaps (between islands for example) which would require 2 ships normally. Cost and build time of this ship are close to the ones of a Cruiser.

May I suggest a few more lasers and a Shield or two?
At least shield exactly needed! :)
Original design had more laser and particle beams but that meant higher price, longer build time and not that much more usefulness - at least the way i think about this design.
It is not intended to go against an emitter and block it but more like an island gap closer and early base defense.
Might should update info on it - was more of a test upload for designer name bug.
Nice, update function works properly - and now it's even cheaper! (without those 2 tanks)
