Battlefleet Eternum: Difference between revisions

Line 78:

==== Battlefleet Confedus ====

Although originating from the secure Confedus subsector, Battlefleet Confedus has frequently fought in the Aural Gate and void battles bordering Putrilocus. Led by Admiral Randolph Tucker from the ''Palmetto Iron'', Battlefleet Confedus's tactics are adherent to baseline Naval broadside strategy, complimented by torpedoes launched by ships in between broadsides.

==== Battlefleet Richmon ====

Possessing a close relationship with the Forge World Filimars, Battlefleet Richmon, led by Admiral Zinovy Rozhestvensky aboard the grand cruiser ''Kirov Arkhangelsk'' has led the defense of the sector's war against the Orks of Dakkasaur's WAAAGH!!! effectively, primarily fighting in Richmon and Kalibras. Battlefleet Richmon, owing to the close relationship with Filimars, possesses enhanced sensors and weaponry, with their Nova Cannons being unmatched with any other vessel save an Ark Mechanicus. Their macrocannons and lances are also similarly enhanced, though as a result of this their torpedoes and strike craft suffer, with both being rarely found in Richmon's fleets. Richmon possesses battleships, but for both tradition and its raw firepower, the fleet is led from a rare Avenger class grand cruiser instead''.'' Their relationship with the forge world is two ways, and in return for the enhancements Filimars provides Battlefleet Richmon is expected to aid the Mechanicus and carry out fleet actions for them to save their Explorator fleets from having to be redeployed - this relationship does occasionally conflict with Battlefleet's Eternums orders, though thus far Eternum proper has not pushed the issue, hoping to avoid a soured relationship with Filimars that would severely hurt its ongoing logistical needs.

==== Battlefleet Makerus ====

A smaller Battlefleet, Battlefleet Makerus maintains a close relationship with the Crimson Bulwark, primarily through their joint actions with the Crimson Fleet. Led by Admiral Pulteney Malcolm aboard the ''Salamander of Makerus'', Battlefleet Makerus has echoed the space marine fleets through focusing on short range fire coupled with scores of boarding parties. Using Shark Assault boats and Boarding Pods, Battlefleet Makerus's ships unload large numbers of armsmen and shanghaied conscripts into enemy vessels, with the masses aiming to destroy or cripple different critical subsystems to allow the fleet to finish the enemy ship off. Coupled with the Gunnery crews training for shorter range broadsides unleashed through macrocannon batteries tuned for close combat, Makerus's melees have proven effective against carriers of Chaos. The masses of armsmen and press gang conscripts do require frequent influxes of new recruits, but Makerus worlds like Byankhongar, NuberrLen, and the nearby worlds in Caligulas like Uliastai provide plentiful manpower looking to escape their worlds. Battlefleet Makerus does suffer against enemy fleets that also focus on closer range, with the few Ork engagements leading to slaughters - as such, Makerus is now rarely deployed against Xenos fleets save for Eldar fleets where their close range specialty proves very powerful.

==== Battlefleet Kalibras ====

Led by Admiral Chester Halsey

==== Battlefleet Arkamedes ====
