历史:
在十年前的沃尔库塔骚乱中。许许多多苏联的战地工程师和造船工人被关进监狱和给他们严厉的判决,因为他们试图抗议苏联不断研究特斯拉武器科技。这个黄貂鱼级攻击船-一个首次试图在苏联的海军的武器起重要作用的特斯拉线圈枪(开始有点乱了)-不过从事全部生产之后几年。苏联的科技试验部门为负责特斯拉线圈and all its spin-offs including this one(又不会翻译了)。从那时到现在,一直都在对黄貂鱼的设计进行反复的修改。通过不断的从其工作日志中采集数据来执着的实现其能力。部门担保当前的样式仍是最安全和最有效的。
黄貂鱼是一个在莫斯科出生的古怪科学家Roman Grozavitz 发明的。responsible for the portable capacitors still used in the Tesla trooper armored suits, decided to outfit his private speed boat with a pair of Tesla coils in order to enhance his frequent fishing expeditions. The coils, he assumed, would not only be used to effectively hunt the fish, but would simultaneously cook them to a burnt crip, just as he liked. This whim gradually became an obsession; Grozavitz worked tirelessly to outfit his boat with a rubber-coated, insulated hull and a power supply that was light yet efficient. While the work left him wifeless and rubelless, the Soviet Ministry of Experimental Science took notice and took him under its wing, granting subsidies and providing accommodations for the "brave ... innovative exploration into the science of lethal electrocution," as the Ministry Weekly Journal reported at the time. Soon enough, the Soviet Union was crafting that which was previously considered impossible, or at least stupid: fast-moving ships fitted with electrifying weapons that could reduce more than just fish down to its elementary particles. Today, some still consider the late Grozavitz a hero for helping unearth some of the true destructive potential of Nikola Tesla's lifetime of work.

Once the Union understood how to create fast-moving strike ship with insulated hulls and Tesla-based weaponry, the Ministry of Experimental Science excitedly explored various improvements to the original design. The only one that stuck after all these years are the stingray's collapsible movers, which resemble the six legs of an insect, and allow the vessel to move on dry land over rough-hewn terrain, much like the Sickle security vehicle. The need for this arose as the Union's enemies realized that the best way to retaliate against stingray assaults was to fight them from inland, capitalizing on the limited range of the Tesla coilguns as well as the light armor of these ships. Now that they can move onto shore, the enemies of the Union are no longer safe even on land.
Because of the inherent danger in the design of these ships, the Union recruited scientists in poor standing to operate them, offering them generous-sounding compensation packages and an opportunity to be featured in the Weekly Journal in exchange for successful tours of duty.
