So we want to strengthen our fleet. Currently, the mainstay of our forces and the most easily reproducible ship is the Tartarus Escort Frigate. Their strength comes from their numbers, each one carrying a battleship worthy lance at the prow and strong laser defenses. The weakness is, of course, their small individual size, a good hit from a Mitu ship of equal or larger size could severely cripple or outright destroy one, at range particularly.
We should work on mitigating that, and we have the perfect example sitting on our Secutarii right now: their Kyropatris Field Generator
https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Kyropatris_Field_GeneratorIndividually weak, the Krypopatris Field Generator gains its strength from unifying itself with others of its number, dissipating the force of the blow over various generators. Creating a stronger shield out of the many.
We should see if the same can be applied upon our Tartarus ships to create a sort of hexagrammic shield formation, to give them greater holding power when the enemies ranged fire is superior.
