o Raked prow and cannons proud, she plies the skies, great majesty endowed. Engines roaring, machinery loud as the Dauntless soars and conquers the cloudso - Ode to the Dauntless, sung by her loyal crews.

One of the most powerful and dangerous classes of airship in Caelus, the Dauntless Class Missile Cruiser is is only outsized by the brand new Carrier and a few individual vessels such as the Caesari. The pinnacle of line-o-battle warship technology, the Dauntless lies on the verge of a naval revolution. While it keeps its main armament in its 8 Tritan missiles (each able to take out a large city), its effective firepower is multiplied several times over by the addition of newer, larger guns in higher mobility mounts o 6 8'' cannons, 3 per side, are housed in armored wide-angle casemates, and 6 14o guns are contained in an armored gun turrets, two housed within the ship, one port and on starboard, and one up the aft decks. Powerful and accurate, these larger guns are capable of dealing devastating damage at long range, often before enemy ships can close within broadside range. Twin Nucleosteam engines give the airship a respectable top speed and make it capable of gaining altitude more quickly than any other large ship of its type.
