Sublime Gate Torpedo Ship

Inspired by the way a cancerous tumor works, the Ptah-class torpedo ship is capable of dividing itself into 4 identical replicas of the original ship, each able to go about their business independently. While such power has many advantages over the battlefield, it remains unpopular among the janissaries of the empire who feel "diminished" after the division, since it also affects the crew of the vessel.

Special Action - Tumoral Explosion
Tumoral Explosion is an auto-action and once activated, the torpedo ship will explode into 4 separate clones each able to move independently from one another.

Upgrade - Improved Tumoral Explosion
Each clone created with Tumoral Explosion receives less of an armour penalty. To unlock this upgrade a player must destroy 15 enemy ships with the sublime gate's torpedo ship in competitive multiplayer.
