With a fully fledged admiral you can dominate the raiders, no matter how much they send out.Īrmory Officer(Marine): Only good if Cylons board you, or you board them. You can make plot armor level Vipers and Raptors with this officer, especially if you pair them with Atlases and Berzerks.

The right side is very useful(but limited), though the real strength is with thie middle line again. Hangar is the only subsystem that can't be modified for the colonials, no matter the posturing.

Hangar Officer(CAG): Oh My god this officer is awesome. Not to mention that the subsystem repair speed it gives makes the tech officer double redundant, since with this, you can repair the subsystems they hack very quickly, especially on defensive posture, but with a decent speed on offensive as well.ĩ/10 Would recommend any time, but especially with Battlestar/Minotaur based fleets. Damage Reduction is always useful, not just once like dradis range and making your ships fully offensive and still having a good damage reduction and you are still able to repair vipers is a godsent. The only difference is that the Engineeer Officer is actually useful. Not even firewall size, but just regen so they can cause less damage before needing to hack trough again.ĭon't get them unless you have something very specific in mind.Įngineer Officer: About the same as the Tech officer, but with engineering. Not to mention that the boost to dradis is useless once you spotted the entire enemy fleet, so the only real use is the firewall regen. Everything this officer does, you can get about the same with the CIC officer and defensive posturing, but it also adds tactical flexibility to it, so this officer is a bum. Good dradis troughout the fleet, but it is very weak in my oppinion. Tech Officer: The toasters can try to break trough your firewalls, but you will put them back on quick. I don't use them much, so I can't be very specific, as I am more of a brawler than a flanker, but I am sure others have nice things to say about it. Not the best officer, but I can see the charm of it with a fleet of Januses or Minotaurs. NAV officer: Useful for making mobile fleets. The last one in particular is useless, since it is the same as if you would have gone for one in the middle. The 10% extra xp is nice for leveling up quickly but everything else on that line is useless, so you are better off doing the middle line. With CIC officers a word of warning, don't go past the 2nd level on the right side tree. Giving a manticore an 8 defensive posturing puts it's dradis range to ridiculous size.Īnd the extra weapon range/accuracy or Damage reduction ione gets is nice as well. Therefore having 3 of them means that you can delete 2 enemy ships every 3 turn if the torpedoes hit. When you are at something like +6 offensive with unguided torpedoes you can pretty much delete a revenant with 1 and a half ranger. It gives extra posture range to your entire fleet with the middle tree.Įspecially effective with munition based ships like the ranger, as the more offensive your posture is, the more munitions you fire with a salvo. This tactic eliminates the Revenant before it can become a problem for your fleet, and can also work without the munitions, albeit your fleet may take more damaged, and it usually requires a larger ship or fighters swarms to achieve.CIC officer: It is just about the best you can get. Firing Armour piercing and guided missile munitions against the Revenant, and then closing the distance or staying at range and having all your firing ships set to max offensive posture and focus fire allows you to effectively one or two turn a Revenant, especially with larger ships like Battlestars or gunships, combined with “Wall of Death” formation (See Adamant page for explanation). Unguided rocket salvos from the same direction are your best bet since a Revenant's turn rate is worse than a battlestar's.Īnother tactic is to locate a Revenant ahead of time by using Squadrons or Corvettes as scouts.

Slow and lacking Raider squadrons, the best way to counter these monsters is to concentrate munitions fire on them. Its firewall regerates at a rate of 77.5/s. The ship has a 15% base damage reduction and 95% base subsystem repair rate. The Revenant uses aggressive turret placements to suppress and dominate opponents with constant barrages of gunfire. The core hull of the Revenant is stolen from the design of a Scorpian gunship captured early in the war.
