Another battle cruiser was already inside the city, in a large empty spot that appeared to be a dockyard, surrounded by a squadron of stingers.

Dozens of battle cruisers were assembled by the Fishermen for the battle as part of the Fisherman fleet. They mostly avoided combat, instead remaining behind and bombarding enemy positions, much like a cannon of the steam age.

With the sudden rise of the legendary Karathen, along with Arthur and thousands of marine life, the land forces immediately retreated from the lumbering beast. The battle cruisers joined the battle, providing fire support while staying away from the front due to their light armor.
With the land battle over and the brine out of action, one of the battle cruisers surfaced from the ocean in the distance around site of the duel between Orm and Arthur.
