Paranid Odysseus

Despite being the most expensive M2 in the game prior to the M2+ ships of Albion Prelude, the Odysseus is a powerful destroyer well worth its expense. It has comparable stats to its rival M2s, but its unique shape combined with its ability to mount the deadly Phased Shockwave Generator make the Odysseus a particularly effective force of destruction. The Odysseus is expensive to purchase and equip, and its PSG armament is hazardous to its allies as well as its foes, so the Odysseus is not frequently used as part of of larger fleet actions.
