| A solid heavy combat frigate, the Centurion can be counted upon to fill and hold gaps in the line of battle, as per the Domain-era doctrine practised by the successor-state of the XIV Battlegroup. The Centurion is valued for its versatility due to an abundance of hybrid weapon slots and an integrated Damper Field that allows it to shrug off the fearsome firepower it is sure to face in combat. |

| Modified for operations in the Askonia system under orders from Supreme Executor Philip Andrada, this hull includes integrated solar shielding as well as a peculiar internal cladding provided by an industrial conglomerate out of Sindria itself. That the chief designer, appointed by the Supreme Executor for his many cycles of loyal service, sits on the board of that conglomerate is simply an example of the unity and efficiency of the Sindrian Polity.

Overview[]
The Centurion is a large, defensive midline frigate. Its small hybrid mounts point in all directions, giving it good point defense and anti-swarm abilities but poor concentrated firepower.
Notes[]
The Centurion is one of few frigates that can excel in an escort role for a much larger ship by utilising the Escort order. Its generous defensive stats & Damper Field ship system enable it to perform well in what would normally be a suicide detail for such a small craft, body blocking fire for its ward under cruiser or even capital pressure for a short duration.
It is of particular use as a point defense escort frigate due to its multiple small mounts with excellent 360 coverage, ensuring that a wide range of PD setups can keep sustained pressure on missiles or fighters. If you are seeking an escort frigate with a different sub-specialisation then check the Brawler or Monitor.
The frontal limbs of a Centurion may serve as places for aggressive damage emplacements, however they may also be utilized as highly effective point defense positions. Vulcan Cannons with Integrated Point Defense AI may be able to counter most unguided missiles, including those shot by the common pirate Capital Ship. When equipped with Unstable Injector the Centurion may be even fast enough to utilize these point defense emplacements as melee weapons, although Vulcans will be doing significant damage only against lightly armored targets.
