Strengths.gif

  • Full automization: Thanks to the integration of various high tech computers and internal electronics alongside the ZEUS Droid Brain at the core, this ship requires a lot less functional personel to have this ship be in perfect operational condition. It also increases the precision of the weaponry and allows for better tactical approaches when in an emergency.
  • Extreme Armament: Loaded to the brim with a large array of powerful missile launchers and modern weaponry alongside the high precision of the targeting systems and guidance systems thanks to the full automization of the ship, the Dictator class is veritably extremely potent when it comes to offensive capability in comparison to other ships within its class.
  • Extreme Defense: The fact that this ship is supposed to be the very peak of warship engineering, means that the defensive side of this ship had to be as good as its offensive capacity. This was achieved through the use of hightech shielding, stealth capacity and many features that weren't seen on any of the main lines of ships produced by Nargath Holdings due to the association with other manufacturers.
  • Stealth Capacity: The combination of Embedded stygium crystals, the Black coated color of the ship along with the heat and friction resistent Carbonite coating grant this ship the outmost, top notch ability to hide itself from sensors, radar and even the very sight, making this essentially an invisible battering ram so that enemies would never be aware what hit them until it's already too late.
  • Variety of weapons: Not content with simply being loaded with endless amounts of turbolasers, this ship proves its versatility with the varuety of weaponry it utilizes to batter an enemy defense senseless, with weapons ranging from mere solid projectile weaponry to incredibly powerful plasma railguns and Heavy Ion Cannons.
Weaknesses.gif

  • Full automization: As always there is a disadvantage to the automization of ships, which becomes progressively obvious in this case, as the ship due to its high reliance on it's integrated technology is very succeptible to Ion and EMP attacks, especially when the shielding of the ship would be down.
  • Full automization II: With automization comes the risk of having slicers try and crack the encypted coding of the machines and computers responsible for the automization, though in this case this would mean trying to crack the codes of the difficult to crack ZEUS droid brain, if succesful, it would grant slicers full control over the ship.
  • General Mobility: Due to prioritizing armaments and armour primarily, the Dictator class Radiance is severely lacking in the maneuvrability and speed department, despite the more powerful engines, this can also be adressed to its larger size and bulk and the added fact that the majority of the ships reactor's energy is used for the computing abilities of the ZEUS droid brain and the weaponry systems.
  • Interdictary Fields: A large enough interdictory field will not only refrain the ship from going into hyperspace, but will also mess up its stealth systems, forcing them to become inert until the interdictory field is eitherescaped from or lifted. Sadly this also includes when this ship activates it's own gravity well projector.
  • Cloaking system: To effectively use the weaponry, the cloaking needs to be shut down, at which point it enters a cooldown phase, making it impossible to engage and instantly recloak, as energy is being diverted to the weapons. It CAN work in conjunction with the shields.
Description.gif

The Dictator Class battlecruisers are built on the idea of a highly modular and highly customizable frame, skeletal structure and hull which can be fitted with a variety of technologies, weapon systems and defensive systems to suit the needs and wishes of the people requesting to have a large warship built to their own design and requirements. The first of these ships has gone into production right after both the Brabo and Antigon prototypes had been built and started their test runs. Utilizing their basic design structure, the Dictator class can be seen as the galaxy's most customizable battlecruiser with the capacity to be the most powerful warship one could ever dream of bar ofcourse the overwhelming super star destroyers.

The Radiance is the third of the Dictator Class battlecruisers to be completed at the Eriadu shipyards of Nargath Holdings, a request by the Grayson Imperium's Ministry of Defense, it is outfitted with several encryption and sensory packages procured from Aegis systems and Jaeger Solutions' impressive Covenant Class Hypervelocity cannons. The Radiance is the first Dictator Class to be sold to a faction, organization or person outside of the Confederacy and is the symbol of how N&Z Umbrella Corporation is penetrating the galactic scene.

EDIT LIST:
  • New owner name added
  • Edited hyperdrive rating from 1.5 to 1.0 to reflect high rating properly
  • Fixed ratings: hangar space from average to very high
  • Edited outer plating from impervium to impervium reinforced duralium
  • added tunqstoïd lining
  • added gravity well projector to avoid confusion
  • Changed ship ownership from Dak Dak to Cassius Callaesar Cassius Callaesar at his own request
  • added permission from Dak
  • Removed DC-2A
  • Upgraded from ZEUS to ZEUS MK II

Heya!

It seems that you're missing the Permission links for the DC-2A and the C.A.N.O. systems, which are both Closed-Market. Make sure to contact Nicademus Blith Nicademus Blith and Dak Dak for permission to use these items and link them accordingly. Make sure to link the Alliance under Affiliation too.

along with the heat and friction resistent Carbonite coating grant this ship the outmost, top notch ability to hide itself from sensors, radar

Carbonite, to my knowledge, has no inherent ability to mask the heat signatures of starships on its own. While it's used for the process of carbonite-freezing, no source I've read indicated a particular heat resistance or ability to mask heat sources from sensors. Could you edit this to reflect that better?

Sadly this also includes when this ship activates it's own HIMS interdictory field generator

The way this is worded makes it appear like the HIMS creates its own interdiction field, which is not the case. The Hyperwave inertial momentum sustainer (HIMS) functions by creating a hyperspace bubble around a ship to allow it to pass through interdiction fields using its own momentum without leaving hyperspace, not to generate an interdiction field of its own. Additionally, I can't find any other mention of an interdiction field generator in the sub itself, so this part of the weakness seems to be incorrectly attributing the ability to create such a field to the cruiser. Same here, can you clarify the lack of an interdiction field generator and correct the attributed function of the HIMS?

Edits made accordingly

As for carbonite, it's based on the principle that something which is heat resistant therefor gives a different, lower thermal image compared to materials which are better at conducting heat. Should this not be sufficient, I'll simply add Ersteel to the mix XD

Edits looking good, aside from Blith-Tech still being listed as Manufacturer. Following up on some more sources I think I finally found the source for heat resistance you mentioned, so that's all good.

One last thing that slipped by me last time, could you link the Galactic Alliance faction under affiliation?
