Attack Battlecruiser Group
Naga
| typeID | 4306 |
| Mass | 15,000,000.00 kg |
| Volume | 252,000.00 m³ |
| Capacity | 575.00 m³ |
| Base Price | 52,500,000.00 ISK |
| Category | Attack Battlecruiser |
| Produced By | Naga Blueprint |
| Description | The Naga was designed in YC 109 by Corporate Police Force as an anti-Guristas ship, sacrificing the usual robust Caldari Navy standards in favor of supporting battleship-class weaponry. It was rejected by Hyasyoda management for being overspecialized.
The Naga design remained in the Hyasyoda archives, forgotten (save for a cameo in the Gallente holo-series CPF Blue). In YC 113 the Caldari Navy entertained contracts for a new tier of gunboat battlecruiser. Hyasyoda quickly submitted and won with the Naga, underbidding both Kaalakiota and Ishukone. The Naga is effective in any campaign where fast, mobile firepower is required. |
Oracle
| typeID | 4302 |
| Mass | 14,760,000.00 kg |
| Volume | 234,000.00 m³ |
| Capacity | 500.00 m³ |
| Base Price | 52,500,000.00 ISK |
| Category | Attack Battlecruiser |
| Produced By | Oracle Blueprint |
| Description | In YC 113 Empress Jamyl Sarum I challenged Amarr ship manufacturers to build a new battlecruiser that would break the stalemate of the Empyrean War. Deviating from the doctrine of brute-force and heavy armor, the engineers at Viziam took inspiration from Caldari history.
During the Gallente-Caldari War, the Caldari developed light, maneuverable ships to counter the slow ships of the Gallente Federation. This philosophy, along with a cutting-edge powertrain and ultra-light alloy armor plating, led to the Oracle. The Empire immediately ordered the ship into production. The Empress personally congratulated Viziam Chief Researcher Parud Vakirokiki, calling the ship "a work of Divine Grace for the Empire, and retribution to our enemies." |
Talos
| typeID | 4308 |
| Mass | 15,552,000.00 kg |
| Volume | 270,000.00 m³ |
| Capacity | 600.00 m³ |
| Base Price | 52,500,000.00 ISK |
| Category | Attack Battlecruiser |
| Produced By | Talos Blueprint |
| Description | The Talos began in YC 110 as a R&D concept by ORE. Conceived as a patrol craft for mining operations in lawless space, the Talos would have been abandoned completely were it not adopted by the Black Eagles, a black-ops branch of the Gallente government. The Black Eagles stripped the Talos of non-essential systems and bolted on battleship-class weapons, creating a quick-strike craft ideal for guerilla action.
The Talos remained a military secret until YC 113, when it was introduced into wider circulation as a third tier battlecruiser. Today the Talos is manufactured by Duvolle Labs, who modified the original ORE designs to bring it in line with Gallente standards. |
Tornado
| typeID | 4310 |
| Mass | 15,228,000.00 kg |
| Volume | 216,000.00 m³ |
| Capacity | 535.00 m³ |
| Base Price | 52,500,000.00 ISK |
| Category | Attack Battlecruiser |
| Produced By | Tornado Blueprint |
| Description | In YC 113 Republic Security Services learned the Amarr Empire was building a new battlecruiser capable of supporting battleship-class weapons. Determined to not lose their technological edge to their adversaries, Republic Fleet commissioned Boundless Creation to construct a gunboat to match. What they designed was the Tornado. Developed in record time and total secrecy, the Tornado is a testament to Minmatar engineering. Modeled loosely off of flying-wing designs of ancient planetary bombers, the Tornado supports multiple large projectile turrets, dealing massive damage while maintaining a small signature radius. |
