- HIMS: Outfitted with a state of the art hyperwave inertial momentum stabilizer, the Nemo's Revenge is capable of generating a static hyperspace bubble which sustains the ship's presence in hyperspace while propelled along by accumulated forward momentum. This allows the battlecruiser to pass through most standard interdiction fields, although it cannot be used to jump from inside an active gravity well.
- AIAS Shield Array: One of the first non-prototype models to be outfitted with the Galactic Alliance's cutting edge AIAS Shield Array. Only usable while full power is rerouted to the star cruiser's shield systems, upon activation the Revenge's armament is reduced to Very Low and its Javelins are offlined while an immensely durable shield bubble is projected out in a 10 kilometer diameter centered on the battlecruiser. While the AIAS shield is active, the battlecruiser and any other ships inside its shield perimeter are equally unable to return fire through this protective bubble.
- Electronic Counter-Warfare Suite: The Revenge operates on a distributed network, ensuring that remote control of the starship cannot be achieved by outside forces. This ECW suite is primarily designed to keep lines of communication open in the face of hostile jamming by amplifying the signal strength of the array beyond the capabilities of anything short of highly concentrated signal jamming. Equipped with state of the art disruption technology, the battlecruiser is packed with sensor jammers and dampening emplacements designed to fend off hostile assault forces.
- Emergency Command Bridge: In the event of catastrophic damage to the Revenge's main bridge, command level operations can be transferred to an internal, reinforced battle bridge on the authority of the vessel's most senior officers. If the battlecruiser's internal sensors detect the primary command deck has been compromised, this system is automatic, but otherwise must be confirmed with the proper authorization codes as a precaution against sabotage or mutiny.
- Itsukusk Pods: Specially designed one man escape pods housed in close proximity to each bridge, they are less durable than a standard escape pod. Designed and installed so that in the event of an emergency, the star cruiser's bridge crew is able to stay on board until evacuation is absolutely essential to survival.
- Compartmentalized Design: Customized by Silvia engineers during its overhaul, each section of the Nemo's Revenge has its own backup power supply and life support systems, which automatically overrides bulkhead control when hull breaches are detected. This makes the vessel extremely difficult to completely scuttle, even after suffering significant internal damage.
- Hunter Killer: Originally built with one sole purpose in mind, the Nemo's Revenge is a heavy capital killer which excels at lightning strike operations, using its eleven sublight ion engines to close on a target while its long range arsenal attempts to damage or disable. Upon closing in, standard practice is to angle the star cruiser for a broadside, salvos from its mass drivers, heavy turbolaser and ion batteries savaging anything within its firing solution.
- Variable Power Matrix: Cutting edge power distribution systems specially installed by SoroSuub and adapted to interface with Mon Calamari technology allows for the Revenge to re-prioritize its energy output to several main systems. Able to reroute power from weapons to shields to engines, this cannot be done continuously without overloading and damaging the star cruiser's overtaxed reactors.
- Sanctuary: One of few Alliance starships outfitted with an AIAS Shield Array before the fall, the battlecruiser is capable of generating an immensely durable energy shield in a 10 kilometer diameter centered around its hull. It is possible for both allied and enemy ships to pass through this field freely on impulse power, but it absorbs most forms of weapons fire omnidirectionally.
- AIAS Energy Drain: Only possible to activate once full power is rerouted to shields, this shield array's extreme energy requirements siphon additional energy away from the Revenge's weapon systems, reducing its armament to Very Low and it can no longer fire its hypervelocity cannons. Additionally, the star cruiser's reactors cannot power the shield indefinitely, even without strain eventually it will first lose engine power and then the shield bubble will fail completely.
- Point-Defense: The Nemo's Revenge is most effective at dealing with larger capital models, and by itself offers relatively little protection against enemy starfighters and small attack vessels. Like many ships of its class, it requires an escort or support fleet to protect this weak point.
- Fuel Hungry: To reach the kind of sublight power necessary to propel such a large ship at maximum velocity, especially with full power to engines, requires an immense amount of reactor fuel. The Revenge requires either a support fleet or frequent stops at ports of call to keep itself fully operational. Long hyperspace trips across vast distances are technically possible, but impractical without planned stops or a mobile refueling platform.
Originally only a slightly modified MC85 Star Cruiser known as the ANS Nautilus, this starship was the original command of deceased Galactic Alliance Supreme Commander Nemo Ven. When Ven took over as full time commander of the Itsukusk, his old flag was not retired but reassigned to the Outer Rim where its main port of call was the Sullust system. Even after the Supreme Commander's death and his supercarrier's destruction in the Metharian Nebula during the Battle for the Hydian Way, his Nautilus continued to serve as a part of the Defense Fleet's southern command group.
Dry docked at Sullust's shipyards to be retrofitted with a state of the art AIAS Shield Array shortly before the fall, the Nautilus' command deck was quickly destroyed and most of its senior staff killed in the opening shots of the Mandalorian Empire's raid on the Alliance fortress world. Despite suffering immense damage, junior officers were able to regain control from the star cruiser's secondary bridge, escaping Mandalorian notice in their near crippled state for long enough to jump away towards the Outer Rim.
Eventually finding its way to the Avanoa system, the lone Nautilus was granted sanctuary by Silvia Shipyards. With the assistance of contractors throughout local Outer Rim systems, the star cruiser was more or less entirely reconstructed from its slagged foundations. Renamed the ANS Nemo's Revenge, its history is not forgotten as the "Last Flight of the Nautilus" is a story that has quickly grown to folk tale status within the Alliance-in-Exile for its defiant moral.
