The Hades is a flying-wing fighter-bomber that is heavily armed and armored but quite slow. Elegant, roomy, and whisper-quiet: who knew that annihilating your enemies could be done in such comfort? Sherry, anyone?

The Hades' design is strongly reminiscent of the B-2 Spirit Stealth Bomber. Originally, the Hades was known as the Guardian. [1]

Fighting in the Hades[]

With 8 overall guns, the Hades is a powerful combat ship with a decent hull for trading as well. Thanks to 7mm of armor, the Hades can also be pounded on and still come out with a win. The four small guns actually deal the most DPS for a front arc setup in the entire game at present, so use overlap if possible to maximize your damage. On most larger planes like Levis, note that you can get up to all 8 arcs on them if you fly over the plane.

Fighting the Hades[]

Attacking the Hades is a simple matter of outreaching its arcs with one's own, and keeping a fair distance. This should be easy with most similarly tiered planes, but if reach is an issue, attacking from the rear tends to be the safest, or diagonal arcs may take out the Hades from safely outside of its arcs.
