- Extreme defenses: By relying on the skeletal structure similar to the design of the Dictator class battlecruisers, augmented with dual layered shielding and a secondary, emergency shield generator, this ship can boast a near unprecedented level of defensive capabilities. The additional structural strengthening of Tunqstoïd lining, double plated hull and the advanced Ersteel 12231 use in the outer plating ensure that no ordinary weapon can pose a significant threat to this ship's structural integrity and sustainability.
- Advanced systems: Combining the unmatched processing power of the ZEUS mk II and using it as the basis for the ships many systems, ensures that even during the most severe emergencies, operation of the ship can be guaranteed as long as the reactors and the ZEUS mk II are operational, even if there is not a living soul onboard of the ship.
- Stealth Capacity: Thanks to the combination of a highly advanced stygium crystal cloaking device, blacked out carbonite coating, the Ersteel 12231 plating and the silenced afterburners of the ships large capacity engines, this ship is hard to detect on any radar, despite it's massive size. ofcourse it is harder to fully camouflage it from naked view due to the gravitational distortions, especially when it's HIMS systems are active.
- Stealth issues: As with all ships, the stealth system can only be operational when there is no use of the weapons.
- Armament: Due to the ship's capacity and function as a supercarrier, it is somewhat lacking in the weapons department. though it's weaponry in numbers and strength may be comparable to an above average cruiser, in comparison to other ships of its own size, this means it is slightly underwhelming and only the bare necessities apart from the two heavy turbolaser placements which at the very least warrant a low rather than a very low rating in comparison to other ships in its class.
The Centurion Maximus supercarrier was a design which after being commisioned by Imperius was instantly and easily put in motion due to Nargath holdings already having a decent basis with it's Dictator Class skeletal frame and hull construction. Though some parts of the structure were either enhanced or changed to fit the appropriate parameters, the idea was to base the complete design mainly off of the smaller Revenant class star carrier and to scale it up with some extra expenses in terms of materials being used and systems installed to truly make this into a memorable ship.
The choice of materials was based on what was to be expected as this ships greatest issue and that had been noted as being used as a shield for other ships within an operational fleet, according to these parameters, the use of Ersteel 12231 had been authorized for outer plating construction, while Tunqstoid would be used to provide the lining between the inner and outer plating. With the hull and skeletal frame consisting out of Impervium reinforced durasteel, this ship was expected to be able to take a serious beating from all sorts of conventional weaponry even with its shields down or inoperational, which the engineers of Nargath Holdings expected to be a serious clincher for the customer's demands to be meet and even be exceeded.
