Overview:
Upon his ascension to the Caesarship, Nicholas Julianus told his best naval architects to create a new class of battleship. The ship was to commemorate his reign as Caesar, and to replace the aging Illustris class. Imperial Tachyonics and Ry’Thyll Shipyards came up with a collaborative design that beat out all other entries.
Despite allegations of political favoritism to the two companies (Both backed by Illustrus Senators personally loyal to the new Caesar), the new vessel, designated the Regnum class, proved to be one of the deadliest……..and most expensive, ships in the galaxy. Detractors within the TOG also questioned awarding part of the contract to a Naram firm from the Dalvik district, but Ry’thyll Shipyards and the Likal Clan who run it are considered staunch, even fanatic, loyalists to TOG, which causes Renegade and Commonwealth Naram no end of consternation.
Capabilities:
Imperial Tachyonics and Ry’thyll Shipyards set out to design the ultimate battleship, and may have succeeded. The core of the vessel was based upon an Imperial Tachyonics Class Epsilon mass driver. Backing up this monstrous weapon were 12 100 gun bays of 37.5 class lasers. The broadsides each consisted of 1 bay of 37.5/30 lasers, 2 bays of 37.5/10 lasers, and a bay of 37.5/5 lasers. Unlike many TOG ships, the front and aft were amply covered by a pair of 37.5/5 laser bays. Rounding out the anti-capital ship armament was a Ry’thyll La-Xibil (Night Phantom) class E HELL missile battery, a deadly weapon system know for its reliability and accurate phased-array tracking system.
Almost as an afterthought, a standard battleship class turret array was added. A broadside from a Regnum can strip 30% of the armor of a frigate at extreme range, and instantly immolate a destroyer or smaller vessel at close range.
The Regnum was designed to carry 120 fighters, 20 small ships, and 500 marines. A comprehensive internal defense system was installed as well. In a controversial move, the fighter bays were configured to hold Interceptors of up to 400 tons in mass. This was done to accommodated the projected series of heavy fighters and assault bombers now beginning to see service. The mix of fighters varies widely, by preference of the Admiral commanding the vessel in question.
The first Regnum, Julianus Eternus, launched in 6790, the vessel is currently the personal flagship of Caesar Julianus. The ships are comparatively rare, as despite their awesome combat power, they are the second most expensive class of vessel in the TOG navy, exceeded only by the Overlord class carrier.
Deployment:
Regnum class battleships are assigned only to units which show undeniable loyalty to Caesar Julianus. To a great degree being assigned as commander of a Regnum is considered the ultimate test of loyalty. It is for this fact (and that afformentioned internal defense system), that no Regnum has defected to the Renegade Legions, although a few have been destroyed in combat. Those which have been destroyed have generally taking more then 9 times their mass with them.
Notable vessels of the class are the Julianus Eternus, Caesar’s personal vessel, which spends most of it’s time orbiting Terra. Caesar Regnus, which was crippled in the abortive Gael Cluster fiasco of Overlord Magnan Domitus Grachi, and Naveria Regnus, flagship of TOG’s 920th Naram Heavy Carrier Group.
That's it! Unfortunately no pics of those exist, so we'll have to use our imagination to depict those beasts!
I'm currently still working on campaign 1 (implementing the new legiathans from the briefing). I'll update you when I recieve the interceptor pics.
cheers!
Edit: here are the kraken ships (some utility ships like the tender are very interesting and will no doubt appear in the campaigns).
