The Battlecruiser is a supercapital Starship class between 16,000 to 20,000 blocks. They are also the largest, the most expensive, and most power-dense starships on the server. They are very rarely seen, and no two battlecruisers have ever engaged each other in combat on survival as of 2024.

  • Only four nations currently possess battlecruisers.

Sporting the incredibly destructive Quad Turret, battlecruisers possess combat power previously unheard of. They’re capable of outgunning entire squadrons, and even small fighters and gunships can’t avoid their firepower; a single hit can destroy an entire ship outright.

Battlecruisers are countered by other Battlecruisers, Attack Frigates, Light Frigates, Tackle Gunships, and Starfighters. Battlecruisers are a counter to Frigates, Destroyers, Attack Destroyers, and Cruisers.

History

  • Vega deployed a battlecruiser in the famed Battle of Asteri, where it played a role in breaking the Ilios Alliance’s hold on a Vask Authority station containing another battlecruiser.
  • (Vask Authority's CATACLYSM) is the first Battlecruiser to have ever been sunk in combat by the Ilios Alliance.
  • Lonestar possesses one Repentance-class battlecruiser, which it acquired when its owner Sovrah joined the nation.
