• Orbital Strike Capability: The Adjudicator II-class Star Destroyer is outfitted with Banshee Cruise Missiles, allowing it to carry out orbital strikes with a very high degree of precision​

• Extremely Cumbersome: The Adjudicator II-class Star Destroyer is a slow-moving ship of the line, who's maneuverability is noticeably lower than that of other ships of similar size
• Lacks Versatility: The Adjudicator-class is not designed to operate independently of a fleet and relies heavily on support ships. Intended to counter large capital ships, it is extremely vulnerable against smaller, nimbler vessels, due to its relatively low number of point defense weapons

And modernization package to the older Adjudicator I-class Star Destroyer the Adjudicator II fulfills the role of a large, capable ship of the line for the Eternal Navy. Although the older Adjudicator I-class remains a capable and serviceable warship, advances in technology and engineering made during the years since its inception, have created the requirement for a modernized warship to replace the older model.

Designed to serve as the backbone of the Eternal Navy and the Empire's vassal states, such as the Kingdom of Elenthaeus, the Adjudicator II is an highly capable warship when properly reinforced by a support fleet and can effectively serve as a frontline warship who's mission is to engage large enemy vessels, such as other Star Destroyers.

Heavily armored and resilient, the Adjudicator II design retains the distinguishing elements of its predecessor, which set it apart from the classic Star Destroyer blueprint, most notable being the redesigned main batteries, which are arranged in four groups of three cannons each. Consisting of a KC-T93S 'Troika' Rail Driver, along with one KC-2A254 'Desolator' Octuple Barbette Disruptor and a KC-3N209 'Growler' Ion Beam Cannon, these Triad Batteries are arranged in such a way as to improve the ship's firing arcs, allowing the two rear-most battery to fire at targets behind the ship, if necessary.

Another notable feature of the Adjudicator II is the inclusion of six KC-7A282 'Banshee' Cruise Missile Launch Tubes, giving the warship the capability to carry out orbital strikes with a very high degree of precision, making it a very dangerous siege platform.

Indended to engage enemy ships of comparable size, the Adjudicator II is severely lacking in maneuverability and although several upgrades were made from its predecessor, its complement of point defenses is still relatively anemic, leaving the ship vulnerable against small, agile ships and starfighters. It has replaced the Adjudicator I as the mainline capital ship of the Eternal Empire, although the older variant is still in service in a reserve role.
