- Extremely durable and thick armor.
- Mighty Punch! With 3 forward facing LRBBeam Cannons, the battleship has a extreme destructive capabilities on a single target able to destroy most ships smaller than a star destroyer with a single shot and able to cripple a Star destroyer with just a few shots.
- Extremely durable and thick armor. The battleship adopted the armor plating style of the Consortium.
- 3 Massive Shield Generators. Like the Battleship of old, that it is based off of, the ship comes with 3 massive shield generators that can power all of the shields functions individually, so destroying one will not hinder the shields of the ship.
- Extremely Slow. Due to the heavy armor, shield generators, and armament, to describe the movement of the ship would be sluggish at best.
- Fixed forward facing primary weapon. The power of the primary weapon is extensive but requires a straight aim to complete. This and the fact that the ship maneuvers like a flying brick make evading the weapon very simple. Only other slowly moving or fixed position craft are at it's mercy.
- Not a carrier! The ship has very little hanger space, and what little space it does have is primarily made to house landing craft.
The idea was simple, build an updated version of the Keldabe Battleship. The execution of such plan was not so simple and extremely costly for the Consortium. Originally slated to make five of these bad girls, they quickly brought that down to three and then again down to two, due to costs. The armor and weaponry alone cost half the budget. But once finished, the two battleships were unmatched in their class. With a primary weapon system that can destroy any Corvette to Cruiser with a single shot, enough firepower to rival an Imperial Star Destroyer, armor to put even the Vengeance-Resurrection class frigate look like a paper plane, and finally the shields to put most Mon Calamary Cruisers to shame. The ship more resembles a weapon platform then a battleship. They were made to be a symbol of power for the Consortium and to provide some of the smaller capital ships with a bulky protector. The Battleships can withstand a beating and still capable of functioning at 100% until its destruction. The Battleship doubles as an invasion craft, housing three squadrons of landing craft and up to 2,500 in deployable personnel.
