Role

The Ark is the Choir's capital ship and carrier. It has no direct gun but launches Glints that fly out to strike ground and air at medium range and return to the hull to recover. It is slow, heavy, and an expensive loss, so it anchors late-game pushes rather than leading them.

Look

A very long glass hull with the middle section cut away to an alloy spine. A ring of small alloy berths wraps the waist, with a heavy prow and smaller stern leaning so the hull reads as bowed.
