| Heavy Cruisers Heavy cruisers are the standard capital ships. They are the heavy hitters who can go toe to toe with their counterparts. The destruction of them usually ensures victory or defeat. As such, they are a source of pride for many nations.
Note: There is no difference between the roles of Heavy cruiser and Star Destroyer. However, due to their unique design and classification, they have their seperate category. Due to this, the Empire is underrepresented in this category. Note: CIS Faction fleets have been changed to All Factions.
Name: CC-9600 Frigate Faction: New Republic only Length: 850 m Building time: 8 months Cost: 6 points Armament: The CC-9600 frigate is heavily armed and can stand up to a VSDI, but not to a VSDII due to space used for troop transport. Fighter complement: None Consumables: 2 years Crew: 6000 + 10000 troops Role: Space superiority, troop transport The CC-9600 "Frigate" is the smallest heavy cruiser in the alliance arsenal. It is a fast ship designed to serve as both a fast troop transport and a space superiority ship.
Name: Bulwark class Battlecruiser MK I Faction: CIS or New Republic only Length: 1000 m Building time: 8 months Cost: 6 points Armament: The Bulwark class battlecruiser has 2/3 the firepower of a VSDI. Fighter complement: 12 fighters Consumables: 2 years Crew: 5000 + 200 troops Role: Space superiority, capital ship The Bulwark MKI is an outdated design that is still in use in many navies due to its reliability.
Name: Recusant class light destroyer Faction: CIS only. Length: 1187 m Building time: 10 months Cost: 8 points Armament: 1 HTL turret at the prow, 4 HTL cannons, 5 HTL turrets, 5 MTL, 30 dual laser cannons, 12 dual-light laser cannons, 60 point defence laser cannons Fighter complement: 240 droid fighters Consumables: 2 years Crew: 300 + droids Role: space superiority, screening vessel, rapid strike craft The Recusant class light destroyer is a well-proven CIS design that suffers from a insufficient reactor to power the heavy armament, thus resulting in needing three of them to stand up to a VSD. . However, its large fighter complement makes sure that the battle is more even. This ship is based on a stolen Mon Calamari design.
Name: Providence class destroyer/carrier Faction: CIS only. Length: 1088 m Building time: 10 months Cost: 8 points Armament: 14 turret-mounted quad HTL, 34 dual laser cannons, 2 ion cannons, 12 point-defence ion cannons, 102 torpedo tubes/1 Quad HTL battery, 3 dual laser cannon batteries, several heavy ion cannons, 1 point defence ion cannon battery, 8 torpedo launchers (carrier version) Fighter complement: 0/240 droid fighters (carrier version) Consumables: 1 year Crew: 22350 Role: space superiority/carrier/capital ship The providence class destroyer/carrier comes in two configuration. The space superiority version is the equal of an VSD, the carrier version is more of a well-protected carrier that can defend itself. These CIS ships have proven themselves in battle.
Name: Dauntless class cruiser Faction: All factions Length: 1500 m Building time: 12 months Cost: 12 points Armament: Heavy Fighter complement: 36 fighters Consumables: 2 years Crew: 18.000 Role: space superiority, capital ship The Dauntless class cruiser is a sleek, battle-proven weapons platform that has become a favorite of NR captains. It's strong array of weaponry makes sure it can go toe to toe with the ISD-I. It is a great ship design.
Name: MC80 Star Cruiser Faction: Mon Calamari only Length: 1200-1500 m Building time: 12 months Cost: 12 points Armament: Heavy Fighter complement: 36 fighters Consumables: 2 years Crew: 5411 + 1200 troops Role: space superiority, capital ship The MC80 star cruiser is slightly less armed than the ISD-I, but has heavier shields with more redundancy in systems. This makes it nearly immune against a Ion cannon strike. Vessels of this type were the most important capital ships of the Rebellion and continued to play a major role in every important battle.
Name: MC90 Star Cruiser Faction: Mon Calamari only Length: 1255 m Building time: 12 months Cost: 12 points Armament: Heavy Fighter complement: 72 fighters Consumables: 2 years Crew: 6465 + 1700 troops Role: space superiority, capital ship The MC90 class Star Cruiser is capable of going toe to toe with the ISD-II. It is the successor to the MC80 star cruiser and a testament to the greatness of Mon Calamari shipbuilding. | |
