[[b]NEW SHIP BRIEFING[/b]] The [b]Retribution[/b] class Battleship, now being manufactured in the Martian shipyards. The Retribution-class Battleship is a heavy capital ship of the Imperial Navy.They are notable for mounting an all big gun armament, with a dorsal Lance battery. Battleships of this class mount the heavily armored prow and torpedo tubes of a capital ship. Ships of this class are considered the backbones of the Imperial Navy and often serve as a flagship, however, the lack of an enhanced sensor suite make the Emperor-class Battleship the preferred choice for this mission type. These are employed in large scale engagements, where the sheer wight of firepower spewed from the broadsides makes up for lack of lance batteries. The Retribution-class is able to deliver a devastating broadside assault on the enemy and is also equipped with impressive ordnance capabilities. The main armament of the Retribution class are its rows upon rows of mighty weapon batteries lining the sides. These are able to fire a devastating spread over extreme ranges, crippling enemy ships before they even get within range to return fire. If closing on an enemy vessel, torpedoes fired from the Retribution are equally capable of causing extreme damage. As with many Imperial battle craft, the ship is also equipped with a series of Lance turrets along the dorsal of the ship. These are more accurate than the flank batteries, but their numbers are fewer. They are normally used for finishing off an enemy ship that the main weapons have crippled, or providing return fire when the battleship is closing on its foes. Many a ship have fallen to the power of a close range broadside of a Retribution-class.
