+===== Sandstorm =====
+The first Ares ship players will encounter, this all-purpose gunship is the only ship seen guarding Ares Outposts, and it also escorts [[game:ships:Polar]]-class freighters and shows up nearly everywhere else the Ares are. Like the [[game:ships:Corsair]] of the New Beyond and the [[game:ships:Wind slaver]] of the Ungoverned Territories, this is a ship that (when it first shows up) has a decent weapon that can be dangerous in swarms, but has very weak armor.

+===== Tactics =====
+When you first meet this ship, probably at an Ares Outpost early in the Outer Realm, its weapon may be dangerous, but unless you only have a laser or kinetic weapon (or weak particle weapon) it should be very easy to destroy. The armor has a fair amount of particle resistance, but it's light enough that it should still be pretty easy to destroy it with a particle weapon such as a [[game:items:Tev 9 blaster]] or variant on it.
