Capital ships are the pride of and joy of an armada and a well placed fleet can turn the tide of any battle. They are however prohibitively expensive and difficult to build - Commanders investing heavily into these ships will have difficulties recovering from a defeat.

Carrier

Classic Modification (L)

The standard Carrier is available after constructing the Capital Ship Assembly, but provides no bonuses.

Barracuda Modification (M)

The Barracuda overpowers opponents with raw damage and has the speed to match other offensive craft, resulting in both faster and deadlier attacks.

Basilisk Modification (R)

Shield upgrades allow this ship to support allied ships on the offense and increase their survivability while still commanding respectable firepower.

Dreadnought

Classic Modification (L)

The standard Dreadnought is available after constructing the Capital Ship Assembly, but provides no bonuses.

Megalodon Modification (M)

Upgrades to the ship’s defense systems make this the single most powerful unit in the game, guaranteeing heavy casualties for any opponent.

Gorgon Modification (R)

The Gorgon amps up the already impressive defense of the Dreadnought and enables it to absorb damage from less protected ships as well.

A New Challenger Appears!

In addition to the ship modifications shown above, Alpha 8 will also see the appearance of a new ship: The Recon. This is the heavy ship variant of the Scout and grants Subterfuge players a much needed boost on the tactical level.

We’re really happy to finally see the IR-2 in the game as it was one of the first ship concepts for Starborne.
