Overview[]
The Avenger is a Federation Battlecruiser, the first of its kind. As the name suggests, the Avenger shares many characteristics with Klingon Battlecruisers, having been designed for war and not exploration. Despite adhering to Starfleet's traditional cruiser design pattern of a large saucer connected to an engineering hull, with two outboard warp nacelles, the combat focus of the Avenger is expressed in nearly every aspect.
The Avenger-class Battlecruiser's design aims to provide a durable warship that is more maneuverable than Starfleet's existing cruisers, and can carry a devastating amount of firepower. However, it does sacrifice a measure of hull strength for this extra maneuverability. There is nothing subtle about this starship class. The Avenger's aggressive silhouette and available firepower make it a formidable and intimidating presence in any battle.
The Avenger's size is much closer to a Klingon Battlecruiser than a standard Starfleet Cruiser. This is largely due to the fact that the starship was designed by the Starfleet Engineering Corps to compete with the smaller, more agile vessels Starfleet is facing in battle. The Avenger class is also the first cruiser in Starfleet to be equipped with an Advanced Cruiser Communications Array.
Class variants
Class | Information |
---|---|
Inquiry class |
SKIN UNLOCK: Inquiry Battlecruiser, 1 The Inquiry-class was utilized by Starfleet in the late 24th century. The ship design would later serve as basis for newer and more powerful Avenger and Arbiter class Battlecruisers, before being brought back into service in 2411. Players can choose between Inquiry and Inquiry Beta warp nacelles. |
Avenger class |
SKIN UNLOCK: Free The Avenger is compact, roughly the same size as a destroyer-class ship (such as the Chimera) and its hull features a thick, reinforced appearance. Visible weapon hardpoints appear around the edges of the saucer, revealing the Avenger's impressive forward armament, and the bridge is protected by two armored braces that merge with the neck, which like the design of the Odyssey class, is split into two. The warp nacelles are blocky and rectangular in design, with optional fins for atmospheric stability. The deflector dish is heavily armored, and only exposes a small "lit" portion, unlike the larger, open dishes of other vessels. The Avenger sports few windows, and those that are present are recessed into armored niches that automatically seal up when the ship enters combat. Windows along the neck are set facing inward, to protect them from enemy fire. |
Avenger class Fleet refit |
SKIN UNLOCK: Fleet Avenger Battlecruiser (T5), 20,000 , 4 OR Fleet Avenger Battlecruiser (T6), 20,000 , 5 The Fleet refit of the Avenger class utilizes a pair of straight pylons that place the nacelles parallel to the secondary hull, rather than curving upward as on the standard Avenger class. Players may also select the "No Fins" nacelle variant. |
Arbiter class |
SKIN UNLOCK: Arbiter Battlecruiser, 3,000 The Arbiter-class Battlecruiser was designed from the ground up to be durable enough to combat the Iconian threat while still being able to deliver punishing amounts of damage. |
