Description:

Answer the Emperor’s call to restore peace and order throughout the galaxy with this Imperial escort cruiser. Made as one of two designs from the Chimera class, The Ashfall serves as the support counterpart to her heavy cruiser sistership Judicator, by trading shields and power generation for addition fighter hangars.

Comes with optional Galactic Republic color scheme.

The Kuat Drive Yards Ashfall

The Ashfall spawns in at level 20, and while the initial mobility leaves something to be desired at spawn, this cruiser offers a robust weapons platform, on a nimble build once it is fully upgraded.

Hello kindred Empyrion spirits!

Let me start with a request; please respect blueprint authors. Often it takes months to finesse a build, and to have it ripped and reuploaded without permission or even so much as credit, can be discouraging, often pushing such authors away from the community.

I personally don’t mind critical feedback, and constructive criticism, as it will serve me to better my builds. However, If you enjoy my content, and there is much more to come, respect my (and others) authorship of these massive timesinks. Thank You.

Armament

Comes stock with

x4 Laser turrets
x9 Minigun turrets

While spawning in with a lacklust weapons profile, Ashfall once geared up can see 70+ turrets placed, in addition to 22 weapon mounts. Captains should be mindful of the turret blindspot coverage at the rear of the ship

Armor

Featuring an all steel exterior base, the Ashfall is reinforced at critical component locations, and features Combat Steel + Xeno at key breakwall locations, as well at the front of the ship around decoys.

The front can be further reinforced by placing armor and decoys in the forward auxiliary compartments, rounding out the ship into a belligerent combatant.

The cruiser is designed to lose upwards of 60% of the vessel from the front, before expensive components start taking losses. at up to 80% loss of the ship’s length, critical CPU will be preserved. Keep front towards enemy

Thrusters

Ashfall spawns in sluggish for RE, but once all XL / Drive thrusters are installed, she will be responsive for how heavy she is, and will give a good account of lift thrust

Features and Devices

Comes with 1 advanced constructor with place for several additional ones throughout the ship.
Grow plot placement spawn in is x36, but if captains choose to utilized the front for hydroponics, that can well exceed 100 plots.

Storage

2x 144k
2x 312k
4x 320k+ (RE gets additional)

Ammo:

2x 144k
2x 288k

Harvest:

2x 320k

Lore and History

When the architect of the Gladiator class Star Destroyer, Walex Blissex, defected to the Rebel Alliance, the Empire moved to seize his assets and holdings. Nothing was recovered to lead to his location, but what was uncovered, was rough scematics for what would later become the Chimera class of cruisers.

Imperial designers saw them as an opportunity to compliment the developing Star Destroyers, and operate as vessels that could penetrate the cracks and seams of resistance, by drawing out rebels and sympathizers where a Star Destroyer might have discouraged conflict.

While the Empire ultimately settled on the Tarkin Doctrine, 2 protoypes of the cruisers were constructed; The Judicator and the Ashfall. One a heavy cruiser, the other an escort cruiser with a respectable fighter compliment.
