NOBLE PHANTASM:

Stormaktstiden: A

Anti-Army, Anti-Rider

The physical representation of Swedens military might during Gustavus' reign. Through the use of the relatively new combined arms strategy, cavalry, musketeers, and field artillery all at the same time in such a way that it pushed war to the next level.
He can summon any equipment that his soldiers used in his tactics. Allowing him to mimic his old tactics, as well as coming up with new ones. He can propel spears forward at high speed, summon muskets to rain down bullets, and cannons to launch artillery at his opponents.

This style of warfare was mainly used cavalry as well as musketeers, and therefore possess it an advantage against Servants with the Riding skill and those that uses/used a firearm. Stormaktstiden is like fighting against a small army for those that doesn't meet its requirments, while those that do will be on the wrong side of a slaughter.

Vasa: A++

Anti-Army, (Anti-Fortress)

A ship that Gustavus put down large sums to have built, wanting to create the strongest warship that existed at the time. And after its completion had he accomplished that goal, but it possessed one fatal flaw, it was too top heavy and tipped over at its maiden voyage thanks to a gust of wind.

Vasa is a huge and powerful warship, being armed with 64 cannons and possessing 10 sails. Each cannon can fire a blast strong enough to punch a hole right through most other Servant summoned ships with ease, which will fly in the direction of either the closest hostilty or Gustavus' chosen target. After a cannon has been fired takes it about 8 seconds for it to reload.

Vasa also contains one bigger and stronger cannon inside. When it prepares to fire will Vasa split down the middle to reveal it, and once it fires will it release an Anti-Fortress magical beam. But using it will cause Vasa to 'sink', making Gustavus unable to use it for three days.
