Venator

By JediPartisan, in Star Wars: Armada

I just want to know when we’ll be able to buy the model.

I also hope that it is feasible to run three Venators in a standard 400 pt list since that was the number that was most commonly used together in the Clone Wars and I always loved the way it looked.

I expect it will be, but three Venators plus a decent squadron load out seems unlikely doesn't it?

I would agree. Balancing is always a challenge, but especially in this case. Although, it may be a similar situation to the ISD where running three Venators would leave very few points remaining for squadrons.

I have little doubt. The ISD-II costs 120 points. I suspect (indeed, I expect) the Venator will be less. Probably less than or equal to the ISD-I’s cost, in fact.

The Venator should probably not have many blue dice, since its canon armament only consists of 10 turbolasers, 52 defense laser cannons and 4 heavy torpedo launchers. If you are interested, this was our Venator design for our CoruscantConstructions The Clone Wars Set, that me and @M0N0LITH did together. Feel free to check out the whole set here: https://imgur.com/a/MzbcwoZ

Wow, these feel really realistic and fine-tuned to me. Good job on building them out.

I'm guessing closer to Liberty-class costs.

Agreed, these are all very well done.
