[LF] Retribution

Strike fear in the name of the Emperor with this level 25 assault frigate. Able to wield a blistering array of turrets and weapons for its size, the Retribution makes up for its modest total shield capacity by projecting a deadly cone of forward firepower.

Comes with optional Galactic Republic color scheme, and Rebel Alliance logo toggle.




The Retribution is a Dreadnova class frigate which spawns in at level 25, core 8 with 50k to spare before adding last CPU for RE players. With an emphasis on firepower, captains will find the frigate as a robust offensive hit and fade platform. The internal nose section can be reinforced with additional armor and decoys for captains choosing to beef up rigidity.



Hello kindred Empyrion spirits!

Let me start with a request; please respect blueprint authors. Often it takes months to finesse a build, and to have it ripped and reuploaded without permission or even so much as credit, can be discouraging, often pushing such authors away from the community.

I personally don't mind critical feedback, and constructive criticism, as it will serve me to better my builds. However, If you enjoy my content, and there is much more to come, respect my (and others) authorship of these massive timesinks. Thank You.

Comes stock with

x8 Sentry turrets place around ground entry
x4 Laser turrets
x7 Minigun turrets
x2 Missle turrets

x4 Advanced Laser Cannons

While spawning in with a modest weapons profile, Retribution once geared up can see up to 60 turrets placed, in addition to 20-24 weapon mounts. Captains should be mindful of the turret blindspot coverage at the rear of the ship


Featuring an all steel exterior base, the Retribution is reinforced at critical component locations, and features Combat Steel + Xeno at key breakwall locations, as well at the front of the ship around decoys. The bridge has a Combat Steel reinforced roof, and the core room features 2 or more layers of armor in a perimiter, with one guaranteed as Combat or Xeno armor.

The front can be further reinforced by placing armor and decoys in the forward Auxiliary Room, shoring up some of the sustained armor shortcommings

The frigate is designed to lose upwards of 60% of the vessel from the front, before expensive components start taking losses. at up to 80% loss of the ship's length, critical CPU will be preserved. Keep front towards enemy

Spacing has been provisioned between devices to allow a good level of chain reaction mitigation.


Retribution spawns in sluggish for RE, but once all XL / Drive thrusters are installed, she will be responsive for how heavy she is, and will give a good account of lift thrust. With 3 drive for port and starboard, Retribution will have respectable strafe response.


Comes with x1 advanced constructor and 2 small constructors, with placement for several additional ones throughout the ship.
Grow plot placement spawn in is x18, but if captains choose to utilized the front for hydroponics, that will add an additional 27 grow plots.


As a gunship, emphasis was placed on getting the most out of spacing for chain reaction reduction and device placement compression on such a small frame. Cargo isn't significant at spawn, but can be supplemented later on.

4x 108k
1x 320k
6x 8k supplemental

Ammo:

2x 320k


Harvest:

1x 320k

Additional 320k cargo systems can be added in, once the advanced gen housing is emptied out, when a fustion reactor is acquired.



Not all Imperial captains are so fortunate to get first posting on a Star Destroyer. Some had to work their way up the ranks through the various workhorses and picket ships found throughout the Imperial navy.

The Dreadnova class of frigates is one such workhorse. Able to satisfy a number of configurations from close escort, and support roles, to all around general function patrol ships or even as point defense in a flotillas.

The Retribution is a Dreadnova configured in a offensive support role, but can execute functions expected of a multirole support vessel. Able to house a small contingent of troops and starfighters, the Retribution thinks itself a scaled down version of a Star Destroyer, but with the offensive power to punch above its class.

In time, some of the officers that would be offered promotions to bigger capital ships would even turn down such offers, having grown fond and proficient in exploiting the strengths of the Dreadnova class of frigates.
