Each of these starships is a weapon-laden fortress, one that groups of enemy ships have little chance of surviving. It's most powerful weapon is the "lightbringer array", which can cut up and atomise a target in seconds. Despite being astonishly powerful vessels, the Harbingers are reluctant to commit these ships to the forefront of any assault into a new territory.
