The Blue Eminence

Our run of new releases carries on this week, with the European Federation receive substantial reinforcement in the form of the Richelieu class Superdreadnought. At 120mm long, it’s the largest spaceship we’ve made (so far), bigger even than the British QE2 class carrier. A third larger than the Milano dreadnoughts, it’s armed to the teeth with half a dozen triple gun turrets and a pair of heavy railguns between the bow mandibles.

It’s named after Cardinal Richelieu, a famed clergyman and statesman of the 17th Century. He was known as l’Éminence rouge, or “the Red Eminence” – but our ship is a bit more blue than red, hence the post’s title.
