So I have been working on the model for the new flagship for Battlefleet Halcyon and thought I would throw the rules in a post. I know that not many people play gothic but I thought I would put them up just to get them right in my head more than anything.
This ship was made after my repeated frustrations at facing the chaos planet killer. While it is not meant to be a direct competitor, it can take plenty of fire and keep going.
I have used the Smotherman Formula to give me a basic points cost to work from, although I have added a bit.
So, the stats:
The weapons:
Notes: The Exalted Subjugation is a slow and ponderous vessel and cannot use Come to a New Heading special orders. For an extra +5 points the Exalted Subjugation may carry squadrons of shark assault boats. If the dice roll for the Plasma devestator is a six (using the old 5/6 = 3 shots), then the ship suffers a thruster critical, without the +1 damage. The weapon still fires that turn as normal.
Formula cost: 501
Adjusted cost: 540
It comes out at slightly more than the planet killer, with less firepower but more armour for more points. This seems to be how chaos and Imperial ships compare to eachother.
