Siege Frigates are used to bombard planets, killing population, damaging the planet infrastructure and eventually wiping out the colony entirely. Siege frigates are not effective against other ships and need to be properly escorted to be effective. All Capital Ships are capable of bombarding planets like siege frigates.
