Spinning blade mass crashes into enemies, damaging itself and them, straight through their armor. Unless issued a specific command by its controller, it will automatically attack nearby enemies. |

Note: Cutlass does not have a Mark V version.
How to use in your fleet
After the 5.026 buff, Vorticular Cutlasses have become the units that they deserve to be. Numerous and vicious, if they can reach a non-command-grade target, they will shred it. The Blade attack has few immunities (where as fusion cutters have plenty). All of these points make the ships a good addition to the player fleet, as long as they are regularly replaced.
Their ultimate demise comes in the form of self-damage, and gravity (speed reduction). You will experience massive losses in a long battle just from the self-attritioning aspect of the ship, and you will also experience much waiting-angst nearby Gravity Guardians. If the AI unlocks Spire Gravity Drainers, your flying blades of doom will be reduced to glorified damage-soakers.
How to counter when in the AI fleet
Gravitational Turrets. End of story. As with all melee-ships, it is worth build an extra layer or two to increase the slowing area if you only unlock the mark-I version.
Adding the Flagship-line of starships to your fleet will also assist immensely with taking down Cutlasses.
