The Avenger Battlecruiser is a Vice Admiral (Tier 5) level Federation Battle Cruiser, the first of its kind. As the name suggests, the Avenger shares many characteristics with Klingon Battle Cruisers, having been designed for war and not exploration. This ship can be purchased from the C-Store for 2,500.
Overview
The Avenger Class Battle Cruiser’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 makes it a formidable and intimidating presence in any battle.
The Avenger’s size is much closer to a Klingon Battle Cruiser 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.
Avenger Battlecruiser comes equipped with the [Console - Universal - Variable Auto-Targeting Armament]. This overwhelming weapon fires a pair of Auto-Targeting Armament Projectiles that travel toward the designated target. Every few seconds, these projectiles will fire weapons (either torpedoes or a tachyon beam) at a random foe within 10 km. This highly versatile weapon system will function differently depending upon which Cruiser Command is currently active (it’s not influenced by other active commands player may be in range of).
Variants
Avenger class
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. It is compact, roughly the same size as a destroyer-class ship (such as the Chimera Heavy Destroyer) 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 pylons curve upward, though the Fleet Avenger Battlecruiser can use a pair of straight pylons that place the nacelles parallel to the secondary hull. 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.
Arbiter class
The Tier 6 Arbiter Class Battlecruiser is based upon the Avenger Class Battlecruiser's design. This upgraded starship 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.
