Hellion

With four turrets, the Hellion is a great entry level turret ship and can be worth the effort to increase your Red Devil Cartel influence for if you've planned to go for this ship. If you haven't planned to go on the shady side, raising your Red Devil Cartel influence may take so long that you find you have enough money for larger ships like the Scarab by the time you can afford a Hellion which may make it less appealing. Its three of its four turrets have full 360 degree firing arc and the fourth only has trouble hitting targets directly behind you. Alpha and Beta turrets are located on the spine of the ship with Alpha being on the posterior third of the ship and Beta being nearly on the nose of the ship. Gamma is on the belly of the ship, about a third of way back from the nose and has its firing arc obstructed by the belly of the ship slightly which prevents it from shooting targets directly behind you. Delta is the other belly mounted turret, located in the posterior third of the ship and has an unrestricted firing arc. Overall the Hellion is a very strong ship and is very cheap considering how strong it is with four turrets that can focus fire nearly any target and five broadside ports.
