Breen Starships are designed for one thing: expanding the influence of the Breen Confederacy through destroying or enslaving their enemies. Built with a mix of organic and inorganic components, their ships are often asymmetrical and look more like monsters than spacecraft. Because the Breen are so secretive and xenophobic and because each vessel is, to a certain extent, "grown" as much as it is "built," Starfleet Intelligence has only been able to observe these four classes of starships.
Plesh Brek Frigate
The smallest warship observed in use by Breen forces, Plesh Brek-class frigates are used in swarms to overwhelm larger vessels. Unlike other Breen starship classes, they are ill-equipped for taking prisoners, as their purpose is to cause destruction and chaos on the battlefield. These are short-range vessels rarely observed outside of Breen space or without the support of larger warships.
They are built for fast strikes and their weapons are entirely forward facing. The primary energy weapon is a heavy disruptor located on a scythe-shaped extended bow and this is is complemented by two medium disruptors on spurs next to the body of the ship. They are extremely maneuverable, but their aft and side-facing shields are weak, which makes them deadly but fragile vessels.
In-Play
- While longer than the Jem'Hadar Fighter, these frigates have about the same internal volume, because their hull is stretched out to be more intimidating. They are about as well-armed, but have much weaker shielding.
- These are patrol vessels you might find around Breen space, but their range means that they usually stay in the system they're assigned to. It would be odd to see them outside of their own space. Their low top speed also means that they would be left behind by the larger fleet, so you'd find them behind the front lines.
- These vessels would be very dangerous in swarms, especially if they were able to surround your ship. Avoid their forward-firing weapons as best as you can.
