The maximum number of bonus attacks that can be added in this way is equal to the number of turrets the target ship has on its profile (so not including bonuses from other ships in base contact using the massed turret fire rule). Turret Suppression Rules From the 2002 Annual, pg 65, under the Fighters Supporting Bomber Waves section: Each fighter in a wave of bombers attacking a ship will add +1Īttack to the total attack runs of the wave, regardless of whether they are shot down or not. * Note: Craftworld Eldar should be added to this list. Note that some characters which may appear under the fleet commander section of a fleet list may not necessarily count as a fleet commander, such as the Chaos Lord entry. Notes: The icon of the Imperial fleet.RULES FROM ARMADA PAGES 1-9 Fleet Commanders A fleet with a total points value of more than 750 points must be led by a Fleet Commander, unless specifically stated otherwise in the fleet list. Nevertheless, it's good to initiate combat with this ship for it has high bow armor. Notes: This is a useful unit, but apart from the tonnage it's more like a regular cruiser. On top of that it has bigger integrity and more importantly - the ability to deploy special troops. Useful at long range thanks to Nova Cannon. Notes: Bigger tonnage of the two ships available in this class. Its only advantage is the ability to use torpedoes. Notes: Lightest and least armed ship in this class in Empire. Good speed - for an Imperial unit, and the ability to shell the enemy with torpedoes can give you an edge on the battlefield. Notes: One of the most useful ships in this class, mainly because of the ability to use shock troops. Remember not to overuse its abilities and to change initiation often to deal the most damage. This class of ships has a whole bunch of different special orders and can extract data. Launch torpedoes when ramming a ship of the same class. Equipped with torpedo launcher allowing greater range of fire. Note: A bit heavier alternative version of the light cruiser.
You can try to ram, but most ships are much faster and will avoid such attempts. Range is limited, so you have to keep close to the enemy. Alter between frontal and board side initiation to ensure maximal efficiency of the weapons. High defensive capabilities if not surrounded. Note: Ponderous and slow Imperial cruiser. Try to keep on the verge on the battlefield and not get caught in cross-fire. Remember to keep away from the focusing point of a fight. Better speed comes at the cost of weaker armor. Launching torpedoes and supporting them with minor turret fire can quickly take down a space station or a cruiser slow enough as to be unable to avoid the torpedoes. Note: Another support unit great for destroying stationary targets. As most Imperial armored units it isn't a speed demon, so keep in mind that enemy's ships can catch up with you easily. Contrary to the last one, this ship has a powerful front cannon, so frontal initiation is advisable. Watch out for ramming attempts - encircle the enemy all you want - armor on the sides is thick. Best used against destroying enemy's objects such as space stations. Note: Well-armored unit for direct warfare. It's quicker than cruisers anyway, so don't overuse the booster, which reveals your position. Chiefly for guerilla warfare: fire torpedoes and retreat until safe distance. Ideal for recon because of good sonar range. Has big range, but it's good to stay close, to provide better accuracy. It's a single gun, so it deals only 1 damage, firing every 3 seconds. Big damage, compared to the lighter version. A couple of accurate shots and the enemy is in danger.īoard-side cannons.

Although lighter version, focused fire of couple of units can take down most targets easily.Īrmor pierce - enemy's shields are ignored - full damage to the hull.īigger torpedo launcher - four projectiles give more hit chance. Watch to not damage your allies.Īrmor pierce - damage is counted for 25% of enemy's ships' shields
Useful at long range, can help to destroy enemy ship if its turrets will not shoot the torpedo down. Only two torpedoes is not a lot considering the rate of fire. LTL is basic weapon for Imperial support units. Stoppable - a torpedo can be neutralized by enemy units and turrets. Tiny target - defensive measures against your torpedoes are 10% less efficient. Pierce-shield - ignores enemy's shields, dealing all the damage to the hull. The cannon will be efficient if the ship is not encircled. Angle of fire good for all types of initiation. Dual construction provides more damage in shorter time.
